About Your Trip

No trip to Destin, Florida, is complete without an adventure on the Gulf of Mexico, and Captains Patrick “PJ” and Jacob are here to make it one you’ll never forget! Whether you’re a local or visiting the “World’s Luckiest Fishing Village,” these experienced captains will take you on an offshore fishing trip packed with action, excitement, and memories that will last a lifetime.

With trips ranging from 4 to 12 hours, Captains PJ and Jacob offer offshore charters that combine bottom fishing and trolling to target a wide variety of prized Gulf species. The longer the trip, the farther you’ll venture into the deep blue waters, giving you even more opportunities to reel in big fish. Depending on the time of year, you’ll have the chance to catch Mahi-Mahi, Amberjack, Snapper, Grouper, Kingfish, Wahoo, Cobia, Sharks, and more! Whether it’s pulling a Grouper off the bottom or trolling for a high-speed Kingfish, Captains PJ and Jacob will put you on the fish and keep the excitement going.

Your adventure takes place aboard a 34’ Hatteras sportfishing yacht that’s designed for comfort and performance. This spacious vessel can accommodate up to six passengers and comes fully equipped with outriggers, an ice box to keep your catch fresh, and modern amenities like air conditioning and a toilet on board. Before heading to the fishing grounds, you’ll start by catching live bait, so the action kicks off early and doesn’t stop until you’re back at the dock.

Everything you need for a successful trip is included—rods, reels, tackle, lures, live bait, and even your fishing license. At the end of the day, the crew will clean and fillet your catch for an additional fee, so you can take home fresh fish ready for the grill. Just bring along snacks, drinks (alcohol is allowed in moderation), sunscreen, and sunglasses, and leave the rest to Captains PJ and Jacob.

Whether you’re trolling for Mahi-Mahi, bottom fishing for Snapper, or chasing a powerful Amberjack, Captains PJ and Jacob tailor every trip to ensure anglers of all skill levels have a fantastic time. Families are more than welcome, and kids will love the thrill of reeling in their first big fish. To make the most of your adventure, take seasickness medication the night before if you’re prone to motion sickness.

Book your offshore charter with Captains Patrick and Jacob today, and experience the best of Destin’s legendary fishing waters. With expert guidance, a well-appointed vessel, and the Gulf’s incredible variety of fish, you’re in for an unforgettable day on the water!
