Bout Time Charters in Pensacola

Bout Time Charters offers a broad Pensacola fishing program, from introductory bay outings to longer offshore trips. Captain Brett Tennant is identified on the operator's site, which also describes extended fishing aboard a 33-foot Contender. The published departure information distinguishes a Pensacola Beach business address from a separate pickup location in Pensacola.

Contact and booking details

Match the trip to the fishing

The booking page separates inshore and nearshore fishing from outings on a federally permitted offshore boat. Shorter trips target the bay and nearby Gulf, while extended options allow more time for reef fish, trolling or a particular offshore objective. That distinction matters when comparing trips that happen to have the same duration.

Listed opportunities include redfish, trout, flounder, sheepshead, mackerel, grouper and amberjack. More specialized schedules mention tuna, wahoo, mahi and swordfish. Ask which fish are realistic for your date and chosen vessel, and whether the plan is primarily casting, trolling or working bottom structure.

Families and experienced groups

The standard group information allows up to six people. Bout Time welcomes children but asks for advance notice so suitable life jackets can be prepared. Families can discuss a short introduction, while anglers comfortable with longer runs can ask about the company's extended Gulf program.

Some older FAQ material describes fishing within nine miles, whereas the booking page also advertises offshore departures. Treat that as a reason to specify the exact vessel and itinerary during booking. A general question about availability is less useful than explaining your group, fishing goals and comfort with an open-water ride.

Confirm the pickup before leaving

The website lists 715 Pensacola Beach Boulevard as its business location and 811 South R Street in Pensacola as a pickup point. Ask for the precise meeting instructions, parking details and arrival time in the reservation confirmation. This prevents an unnecessary drive between different sides of the bay on the morning of your trip.

The current main pages display 850-512-3334 and groupertrooperfishing@gmail.com, while an older FAQ carries another number and email. Use the main-page contact first and request written confirmation of the final cost, tackle and licensing inclusions, fish-cleaning arrangements and weather terms. Pack food, drinks and sun protection according to the instructions supplied for your selected outing.
