Epic 14-Hour Offshore Fishing in Pensacola FL

Reel in Swordfish on a Pensacola Offshore Adventure

Ready to push your angling skills to the limit? Our 14-hour extended offshore trip out of Pensacola, FL is your ticket to some serious deep-sea action. We're talking about chasing down monster swordfish, mahi-mahi, and grouper in the rich waters of the Gulf. Captain Jacob knows these waters like the back of his hand, and he's itching to put you on the fish of a lifetime. This ain't your average day on the water – it's a full-on fishing marathon that'll test your stamina and reward you with epic catches.

What's the Deal with This Trip?

Alright, here's the lowdown: We're heading way offshore, where the big boys play. This 14-hour trip is no joke – it's for anglers who are serious about landing trophy fish. We'll be leaving at the crack of dawn and won't be back until the sun's thinking about setting. You'll want to come well-rested and ready to put in work. We've got room for six anglers, so bring your crew or make some new fishing buddies on board. Captain Jacob's got all the gear and know-how you need, but fair warning – this trip isn't for the faint of heart. We're going where the monsters live, and hooking into a swordfish or a big grouper is gonna give you a workout you won't forget.

How We Roll on the High Seas

When we're out there gunning for swordfish, we're playing a whole different ballgame. We're talking about dropping lines way down – sometimes over a thousand feet deep. We use special electric reels to get our bait down where these bad boys hang out. For mahi-mahi, we'll be on the lookout for floating debris or weed lines – that's where these colorful acrobats like to hang out. And when we're after grouper, we'll be using heavy tackle and dropping live bait or jigs right into their rocky lairs. Captain Jacob's always tweaking his techniques based on what's working, so you might learn some new tricks to add to your arsenal.

Straight from the Anglers' Mouths

"Captain Jacob was awesome. We were out on the water quickly and full throttle to our first location. We were not competing with other boats for the same fish as we were the only boat at our locations. Captain Jacob put us on a lot of great spots and gave us plenty of opportunities to catch a lot of fish. We took plenty of keepers back for several meals during our stay. If you want lots of action and plenty of fun, Captain Jacob is your choice." - Jonathan

"After a great experience last time with Captain Jacob, I booked them again and was not disappointed. We found where the fish were biting and he helped instruct us on reeling them in. Additionally, he was very patient with everyone in the group." - Kelley

"Captain and first mate was great! Helped with us who have never gone and explained everything very well. Fishing was Great also, they knew all the spots! Will be using them again!" - Cody

The Big Three: Our Target Species

Swordfish: These deep-dwelling gladiators are the stuff of fishing legends. They can grow over 1,000 pounds and put up a fight that'll make your arms feel like noodles. Swordfish hang out in the deep, dark waters of the Gulf, and hooking one is like hitting the angler's jackpot. They're most active at night, but we've got tricks to entice them during the day. The meat? It's some of the best-eating fish in the sea – firm, white, and mild.

Mahi Mahi (Common Dolphinfish): Don't let the name fool you – these aren't dolphins, they're fish, and they're a blast to catch. Mahi are known for their acrobatic jumps and beautiful colors. They're fast growers and can reach up to 30 pounds in their first year. We find them near floating debris or weed lines, and when you hook one, get ready for a show. They're also delicious, with a sweet, mild flavor that's perfect for grilling.

Gag Grouper: These bruisers are the bulldogs of the reef. They like to hang around structure and can grow up to 50 pounds or more. When you hook a gag, be ready to pull hard – they'll try to dive back into their rocky homes and break you off. The fight is intense, but the reward is worth it. Gag grouper meat is white, flaky, and makes for some of the best fish tacos you'll ever taste.
