We have visited St. George Island for many years and this is the first time we went on the airboat…read morecruise. We did see an alligator, but the views and the history shared by Captain Cook were worth the tour even if we didn't see any wildlife. My husband and I recommend the airboat tour and plan to make it an annual tradition. Captain Cook makes the tour fun but the swamp views are worth the trip even if the alligators are hiding. Tip: if you are in the front row on the airboat I would recommend not wearing lipgloss....everything sticks!

Once on the island I also followed up. There was no response from them and they never contacted us for the charter. It's a shame too because we have gone with them several times before. We had an excellent week as far as weather goes, but disappointed that we didn't get to fish. Go with someone else so that you'll get to go. If you don't have a backup plan, everything will be booked by the time your week comes around.

I'd highly recommend Captain Lee for fun family outings as well as serious deep sea fishing. Capt Lee is the best in the biz!

Lee not only met my expectations but surpassed them. We were constantly on fish, caught a large variety of fish, and then the Sharks. Fast and furious. The night ended with my brother-in-law landing a 7 footer. A trip with SGI Charters and Capt. Lee will become a family tradition.

Chip is the best! Enjoyed all our trips with him and I hope you will too! Apalachicola is amazing.read more

I have fished in the Apalachicola Bay and Saint George Island area for almost 30 years. For the…read morelast 5 years I have consistently called Capt. Chip Bailey at Peregrine Charters and I've always been happy. We've always caught fish and most trips Chip manages to find ways to "fill the box" with good fish(Speckled Trout, Redfish, White Trout). This last week, the 2nd week of March, we caught lots of Black Drum. The first day we limited out and the 2nd day which I went with my adult daughters, we caught a good number of Drum as well. Chip is a dedicated guide who knows and respects this complex estuary. He's great with kids and is a good teacher and can readily explain the biology of this environmental treasure. If you aren't a skilled fisherman, Chip will make sure your trip is a pleasant one. He'll also turn a day on the bay into a great learning experience as well.
