Fish On Charters invites you to explore the beautiful Gulf Coast out of Panama City.
Join an experienced professional and travel to places that no other boats can go to! No matter what fishing experience you’re hoping to have, you can trust that Captain Russell will help you get the most out of it.
Check the bite in the amazing game-rich environment close to shore or venture out to the Gulf for some nearshore action. Our charters are great for the whole family. If you want to introduce your kids to fishing, Captain Russell is your best choice. He is a great teacher who loves putting a smile on a child’s face.
You’ll cast your line from a 29’ Parker Center Console, powered by twin 200 HP Yamaha engines. Our boat was built in 2021 with comfort and space in mind and can comfortably accommodate up to six anglers.
Depending on the season and time of year, we will fish for Amberjack, Snapper, Grouper, Mackerel, Mahi-Mahi, Redfish, Cobia, Sailfish, and more! Alternatively, you can test your angling skills and fish for Blackfin Tuna.
Upon returning to the dock your captain will clean, filet and bag your fish for you to take home and enjoy!

Jeremy Klein
We kicked off the new year with a banger of a trip! A couple of strong Amberjacks and a surprise Mahi made the day. The 29’ Parker was comfortable and well laid out. Russell is one of the best captains we’ve fished with.

From start to finish, this was an incredible experience. The Sailfish bite was slow, but we loaded up on Grouper and Snapper. Captain Russell had great energy and kept us motivated the whole trip.

Captain Russell knew where to go to find the action! We had multiple double hook-ups and landed everything from Snapper to Cobia. Couldn’t have asked for a more exciting day.

The boat was spotless and comfortable, and the fish were biting! We caught a wide mix including Snapper, Mackerel, and a Redfish that made the whole trip worth it. Russell was awesome.

Best fishing trip I’ve had in years. We got on Grouper early, then chased Mahi-Mahi closer to the surface. Captain Russell kept us laughing and learning the whole day.

Unreal winter fishing! We went deep and found Amberjack stacked up. The fight was intense and Captain Russell coached us through it all. Great vibes, great gear, and top-tier fishing.

Perfect fall fishing trip! The Parker Center Console was comfortable even in a little chop. We landed Redfish, Grouper, and saw a Sailfish jump nearby. Captain Russell is the real deal.

Couldn’t have asked for a better day. The Snapper bite was hot and we pulled in a couple of solid Amberjacks too. Captain Russell kept the energy up and the rods bent. Highly recommend!
