The Gulf is producing good light tackle bottom fishing! Vermillion snapper and some keeper trigger fish still bitting good with our unusual warm temperatures. Red snapper are available for catch and keep on Friday through Sunday each weekend. Season on them closes on last weekend of November.

Tuna fishing has been great when the weather allows. Catching them on live baits, chunks and topwater around the oil rigs

Red snapper are still open on the weekends for the months of October and November on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. During the week we were able to keep Vermilion snapper, Spanish mackerel, King mackerel, and the bite has been very consistent. Book your trip while you can, life's too short not to go fishing!

    If you want to have a great time and catch lots of fish, look no further!! This was such a fun experience for our family of 4. Captain Heath was the best guide ever!! We caught lots of fish and even got a chance to do a little snorkeling. We had the best time and will definitely be booking with him again asap!

    Brought my kids on the trip. Craig and crew were very accommodating and assisted family so I could also catch fish. Very friendly and highly recommend if bringing a family with mixed age group. Caught many snapper and get a few larger fish, grouper, Bonita, amber jack. I will be looking up Craig for my next fishing trip in Destin.
