The bottom fishing in Destin is some of the best I've seen in years right now! We are catching lots of vermillion snapper, trigger fish, white snapper, almaco jack and red snapper. Red snapper season starts June 1st and runs till Aug 18th!

Spring is king, but beach season is here as the gobbles wind down and crawfish disappear.

It’s now time to turn on your Jimmy Buffet and Kenny Chesney playlist and comes sit on the world’s most beautiful beaches!
Top water trout has really proven to be the best way to catch big keeper trout with this spring being especially good.
Schooling reds in the shallows have been regular visitors by my boat but with ultra clear water they are turning their nose up at lots of baits. Over slot (over 27”) fish have been very available cruising the flats so expect a big fight when you can get one of these pumpkins to eat.
We have lots to look forward too and it seems like this will be a summer to remember. So go grab a boat drink and a slice of key lime pie and come catch a few on the Emerald Coast.

The redfish bite has been on! Was using artificial baits until today, they started hitting live menhaden. The wind has been out of the east, it came around west/ northwest last night but it didn't seem to bother the bite. Here is a couple pictures from the last couple days.

Inshore fishing report- schools of Spanish mackerel can still be found on the incoming tide near the Destin pass and along the beaches, along with a few pompano and whiting in the surf.
Red Fish are being caught near the Destin bridge on the outgoing tide along with the Destin Jetty’s.
The speckled sea trout bite has been slim to none, but the Best Bite has been early morning on grass beds using live bait.
Near shore, fishing report-
Rocks and reefs are holding lots of amber jacks, red snappers triggerfish in a variety of other reef species. King Mackerel are starting to show up along with Bonitas.
