The Spanish are back! The Sheepshead and bull redfish bite has been epic this past month. I'm noticing those sheepshead bites are starting to slow down a bit. However, the Spanish Mackeral bite is hotter than ever. We are slow trolling tree rigs just outside the pass and catching 3-4 mackerel at a time. A little bit farther out on the reefs we are catching some early season red snappers and triggerfish on almost every drop. Several good Cobia are starting to be caught, so we are hoping for a strong early season bite to be picking up here in...

The Spanish bite has been on fire lately. Red fish and speckled trout have been great in the afternoons. Kings are starting to run throughout the pass and around the wrecks

This 6 hour fishing charter was on the tail end of a cold front. With that we had some wind and some bigger than normal seas but this crew toughed it out! There main focus was to keep what they caught so we targeted vermilion snapper and trigger fish that were in season. We also caught some red snapper that went back. All in all I good day with some great people!

Spanish Mackerel have shown up in pretty good numbers inshore and Vermillion snapper are plentiful on 6 hour trips. Cobia are due any day now. There have been some 40lb Kingfish around as well but not so plentiful as to go and target them. There have been some reports that trout and redfish are biting in the bay.

The weather has been up and down, but I've been able to move the trips to better days. There is not much open to keep in the gulf ,so I have been doing well inshore. We mostly caught mangrove snapper, and a few other species.

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!
Captain David was really friendly and had the knowledge it took to catch fish. He took extra time to show/teach 9 year old grandson how to catch 4 different species of saltwater fish. Thanks again captain.
Had an amazing day with Jordan, he was great with my older kids and we caught a lot of fish! He helped filet our catch of the day which was so delicious. We would hire Jordan again when we return to fish in Destin!
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.
We had a great experience with CPT. Kyle, he kept us on the fish. Ben, his deck hand was amazing and helped out tremendously. Definitely recommend this crew and boat. My family and I had a blast.
Captain Tim was awesome. We did 4 hrs with 3 kids. We were all beginners. He was a good teacher and very patient. Will definitely charter with him again!
