I'm not sure if you would be interested in Apalachicola but if you are theres a guy I know his name is Richard Scarabin I've been out with him four times last year and had great trips every time.He knows the bay there as good as anyone I know.

Ashley Mock or Junior Dice. You won't find a guide in this area that knows Econfina to Keaton better than those two.

Ashley Mock - 850.843.0566

Junior Dice - 850.838.5760

Ashley Mock of Warrior Inshore Charters, Junior Dice or Edward Thomas of TGIF Charters would be my first choices.
All 3 guys know the area very well, catch some super nice fish and will show you and tell you a lot about the how's, when's and why's.
They also all fish some of the nicest inshore rods around.

I've fished with Edward Thomas twice with great results! He's a great guy too. Highly recommend him at TGIF Charters.
