We had an absolutely awesome day with Emerald Coast Charters. Captaqin Tony grew up fishing in Pensacola and was fortunate enough to carry his personal passion into a 15+ year chartering business. We caught Redfish, Trout, Spanish Mackerel and even a large Bonnet head shark. He know the waters and the area like the pro he is. We would not hesitate to use his services again. Definitely 5 stars!

First time out on a charter for us. Spanish were on the hook in less than 15 minutes. Fishing, sight seeing, and dolphin watching made for a good trip for the whole family. I hope to get a chance to go back again.

We have used Captain Tony many times a year for a number of years now. He is very good at what he does and very good with our grandkids as well. It is always a good fishing experience with Captain Tony.
