The fishing has been good offshore and will just get better as the weather warms up. Vermillion snapper and Trigger fish have been the dinner table targets but you catch plenty of different fish. Weather has been a big factor but it's getting better all the time.

    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.
