Just Fish PCB is a family and 22-year career Army veteran-owned and operated business with an upbeat crew that specializes in providing small, private charters and creating enjoyable and memorable fishing experiences. Patient and understanding with all clients aboard their boat, they welcome all levels of angler and are more than happy to teach women, children, and small families the techniques necessary for having a great time catching fish in the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.

The vessel is a trusty 31’ center console, capable of comfortably holding 6 anglers at the same time. It’s powered by two 250 HP Yamaha engines. Its maximum cruising speed of 50 knots ensures you spend your time fishing, not traveling. There’s a toilet on board as well as a sun cover, to cool off on those bright summer days spent on the open blue.

During your trip you will be using high-end fishing equipment by Penn. Both light and heavy tackle is provided, and trips will mainly involve trolling and bottom fishing. The crew has been fishing this area exclusively for many years and knows all the best techniques to target the local fish. Their high success rate when fishing contributes to their customers regularly landing fish to remember, with Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, Mackerel, Amberjack, and Shark all among their target species.

During your charter you will not feel like a number surrounded by strangers: Just Fish PCB works hard to make sure that everyone who comes aboard their boat feels both part of the family and part of the fishing process. They actively enjoy putting their clients on fish and can’t wait to welcome you aboard.

So come on out, have fun, and catch fish!
