FlyTime Charters offers highly productive guided fly fishing or inshore light tackle fishing charters and instructions to anglers of all ages and experience levels. We guide on the beautiful emerald waters of the Florida Panhandle.

Captain Jason Shepard “Shep” will be manning the helm as you enjoy your day out on the water. He is a Panama City, FL native who was raised on the pristine waters of the Gulf Coast. Growing up surfing, diving and of course fishing, his love for the water was constant. He has been very fortunate to fish and guide in such locations as Florida, Carolina Lowcountry, Southeast Alaska, Northwest Michigan, Blue Ridge Mountains, Cuba, and Belize to name a few. His passion for sight fishing is fueled even more by putting clients on their first fish with a fly. When not guiding, you will find him traveling to new places around the globe to chase fish or behind his Bow looking for game.

While out with Capt. Jason, you will start your fishing adventure in Panama City and cover the fishing grounds of Santa Rosa Beach, Mexico Beach, Panama City Beach, Port St. Joe, Cape San Blas, and many other wonderful locations on the Emerald Coast of Florida’s panhandle in the Gulf of Mexico.

Your fishing charter experience begins once your step foot on Capt. Jason’s 18ft flats boat that is perfect for fishing inshore flats. She is powered by a 70hp Yamaha engine and features a casting and poling platform.

We offer 6 and 8 hour fly fishing and light tackle trips. Each trip will provide you with rods, reels, tackle, lures, bait, fly fishing equipment, and a fishing license. We will cover the inshore flats and backcountry waters of the Panama City area.

Some of the fish you could see on our trips include Amberjack, Flounder, Redfish, Tarpon, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Tripletail, and Spotted Seatrout.

At FlyTime Charters, our goal is to ensure a successful day on the water while making memories that last a lifetime! Book with us today to set up a trip and come enjoy a day on the water with us!

Great Day on the water!
Had a good time fly fishing for tarpon with Shep. Unfortunately, the weather and visibility weren't on our side so the trip was hampered from the jump with things that were outside of his control. Despite the challenges, we had a number of quality shots. When it became clear that the tarpon fishing was going to be extremely tough, Shep changed course and took us into the flats so we could get some quality time chasing reds. All in all, a great day on the water filled with good conversation and hilarious moments.

Great Guide!
Capt Shepard took myself and a friend out for our first fly fishing red fish trip and we couldn’t be happier. He has great knowledge about the area and approach and coached us through a ton of rookie mistakes. Aside from putting us on fish all day long he is just a good guy to share a boat with and we are looking forward to coming back soon!

Top Notch Guides!
Shep and Kyle are both top notch guides. Their knowledge and skills on the water are unmatched. Pair that with their great personalities, you are guaranteed an amazing day on the water. My only complaint is I live too far away, to get more time on the water with these guys! Ski
