Destin Trolling & Bottom Fishing

Starting at $1920 | 6 Hour | Deep Sea | 6 People | Trip #2786

About Your Trip

Head further offshore to explore the Destin's prolific Gulf waters anywhere from 18-20 miles offshore! These 6 hour trips give Captain Kyle more time to implement a couple different techniques to catch different pools of species. Trolling these offshore waters can solicit a Mahi, Wahoo, Mackerel, or even a Tuna bite, while bottom fishing Captain Kyle's favorite reefs and offshore structure opens the door to a plethora of species like Grouper, Snapper, and Big Jacks. This trip is a great experience to catch some fish to bring home or to reel in just for a photo!

About Your Guide

Certified Damn Good Guide
26 Years of Experience

Captain Kyle is very fortunate to have learned from the very best back when he was a deckhand. He learned the meaning of “Old School” from Captain Tommy Klostermann, and who taught him the “book” on fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. Over the years he has learned many different ways to approach fishing, from being able to adapt at a moment’s notice to being able to think thoroughly outside of the box and do things differently from the norm.
