Meet Captain Tanner Plouffe

Meet Captain Tanner Plouffe Of Panacea Florida

Captain Tanner Plouffe’s connection to Panacea’s fishing community runs deep, rooted in a lifetime of experience that began with his family’s longstanding involvement in commercial fishing. This rich background laid the groundwork for his shift to charter fishing about five years ago. The Plouffe family not only boasts a storied history in the fishing industry but also owns the largest bait and tackle store in the area, providing Captain Tanner with constant access to the most advanced and up-to-date fishing gear. His previous role as a SeaTow captain underscores his dedication to safety and proficiency on the water.


Under Captain Tanner’s leadership, Panacea Outfitters offers a wide array of fishing outings designed to cater to diverse interests. From inshore flats fishing and shark fishing to bowfishing and gigging, Captain Tanner and his team are committed to delivering outstanding experiences. Central to their operations is Captain Tanner’s 25-foot Carolina Skiff, a meticulously maintained vessel that comfortably accommodates up to six guests. Powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine, the boat can reach speeds of up to 40 knots, and is equipped with modern navigational and safety features, a live bait tank, and an ice box to keep refreshments cold and your catch fresh.


Fishing excursions are primarily conducted in the rich inshore waters around Panacea. During the cooler months, live bait such as shrimp is used to attract a variety of species. As the weather warms, the focus shifts to trolling and spinning on the flats. Captain Tanner targets a broad spectrum of species, including Redfish, Flounder, Cobia, Spotted Seatrout, Sheepshead, Tarpon, and Black Drum, among others.


Experience the pinnacle of fishing with Captain Tanner Plouffe and Panacea Outfitters, where expert guidance and top-notch equipment combine for a memorable time on the water.
