Capt JB’s Charters provides inshore and nearshore fishing trips through the Apalachicola Bay, St. George Island, and Eastpoint waters. Operating a 25-foot center console boat with a capacity for up to six passengers, fourth-generation captain John Layne leads excursions targeted toward angling skill levels from beginners to experienced fishermen. The charter supplies all necessary rods, reels, tackle, and lures, and covers the required Florida regulatory fishing licenses for all participants onboard.
Trips focus on the regional estuaries, flats, and shallow bay systems, where targeted species include redfish, speckled trout, flounder, tripletail, and seasonal tarpon. In addition to standard four-hour morning and afternoon fishing charters, the company offers evening shark fishing trips and customizable eco-tours highlighting the local ecosystem around St. Vincent Island. At the conclusion of each excursion, the crew provides complimentary fish cleaning and filleting services at the dock.
