Let’s Go Fishing!

Hey Everyone. I am Captain Jon Pinney. I am a third generation fisherman in Pensacola. My grandfather was one of the founding members of the Pensacola Big Game Fishing Club decades ago.  I offer a variety of charter fishing on my boat including inshore fishing in the bay and deep sea fishing in the Gulf of Mexico.

I also offer and have years of experience running private boats. If you own your own boat and are new to any type of  fishing give me a call. I will spend the day or weekend with you and your friends and family showing you the tricks I have spent years learning. A few hours with hands on training can save you years of trial and error. I specialize my guide trips around Bluewater fishing offshore for Billfish, Tuna, Dolphin and Wahoo.

I look forward to posting reports as sheepshead season is heating up. I will also be fishing several billfish tournaments on the “Reel Worthless” out of Orange Beach, Alabama and will keep you up to date on the offshore scene during tournament season. Give me a call or shoot me an email if I can help you out this  year.

On my next trip with Jim we decided to do something different and try to find some red fish. We fished as shallow as about 5′ and as deep as about 25-30 feet. We caught slot fish in shallower water and some over size fish deeper. It was nice weather and the fish bit pretty well once the tide got right.

Nice red fish

 We sight fished with 3″ Gulp! shrimp. Fishing deep we did well with live shrimp and jigs.
