About Your Trip

Run out on the Gulf Side to explore the Nearshore waters and the plethora of artificial and natural reefs off Destin's beautiful white-sand beaches. Captain Robert is a great choice for a family-friendly and action-packed day on the nearshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico. No Destin adventure is complete without a dose of light and heavy tackle workouts reeling in Mackerel, Bonito, Cobia, Vermilion (mingo) Snapper, and much more.

Was a great overall trip. The bite was kinda slow at first but quickly got good through out the trip. The captain definitely could put fish

The captain did a great job to make it a fun day. The weather didn’t help but he made it happened and caught some good fish. Trigger and two big unknown fish cut my line. Great job
