SO POPULAR… WE HAD TO EXPAND OUR FLEET!

In fact, Hook’em Up Fishing Charters has become so popular among visitors and locals alike that we have had the fantastic opportunity to expand our fleet.

2022 saw the Amazing Addition of One of the Nicest, if Not the Nicest Charter Boats, in Panama City Beach. At 52ft long the ‘Game Changer’, (formerly ‘Miss Kelley’ Charters), can take groups of up to 20 passengers on day trips and up to 8 on multi-day trips. She surely is a wonderful vessel that provides for a magnificent day out on the water. She joins the ‘Hooked Up’ which holds up to 16 people on day trips and up to 6 on multi-day trips.

Now, in 2023, we are Expanding Again with the addition of being able to offer fishing charter trips from Apalachicola. The ‘Lady Raye’ which has been owned by Capt. BJ since 2017 and used as a commercial fishing vessel, is undergoing a major refit and will start taking charters this season from June 1st through Aug. 31st.

So whether you want to go bottom fishing or trolling, half-day fishing or a multi-day charter trip, have a large group or just a few, let Hook’em Up Charters take you on an Amazing Fishing Trip you are sure to remember.

AND hopefully… bring home that BIG ONE!

CANCELLATIONS

If a trip must be canceled due to weather or mechanical failure, the trip deposit will be refunded in full. Weather cancellations are at the Captain’s discretion. Trips can be canceled outside of 30 days with no charge. Trips canceled 2 to 30 days prior to the trip will be charged 1/2 of the trip cost. If we are able to refill the canceled trip with another trip there will not be a cancellation fee. Trips canceled within 48 hours or no-shows will be charged the full price of the trip.

So truly you are best off never canceling your fishing charter. While the financial cost of canceling a fishing charter is less than fun. Missing out on landing that beautiful record deep sea fishing catch, well, that is something else entirely.
