About Your Trip

Head out with Captain Tommy and prepare for a memorable day of offshore fishing in the Florida Gulf! The offshore waters of Destin are great for going after some of the prized fish Florida is known for!

You can choose one of five trip options: a 4, 6, 8, or 10-hour trip. Whatever duration you choose, let Captain Tommy know what you want to fish and he'll get you set with the location and technique!

** 4-Hour Trip **
You'll be primarily for trolling kingfish and Spanish mackerel or light bottom fishing or shark fishing. Just let Captain Tommy know what you want to catch and he'll do his best to get you set up with the best method!

**6-Hour Trip**

Head anywhere from 9-17 miles off the coast to fish for Kingfish, Grouper, Snapper, Wahoo, Cobia, Triggerfish, and many more. Whether you want to do some hands-on fishing or lounge until you hear a reel start screaming, Captain Tommy will get you set up with the best gear to catch some fish!

**8 and 10-Hour Trip**

Troll the open waters for some serious Wahoo, Kingfish and more as you head up to 40 miles offshore! Once you get to the deep waters you'll have the chance to bottom fish for hefty Red Snapper and Amberjack on this exciting trip.

On **all of these trips**, you’ll be fishing aboard Captain Tommy’s luxurious 42’ ChrisCraft sportfisher with a capacity for 6 people. Powered by twin 485 HP Detroit Diesel engines, she'll have no problem keeping you comfortable in your quick journey offshore. This well-equipped vessel comes with all the necessities including GPS, Fishfinder, a Live Bait Well, an Ice Box to store your catches, and a Flybridge. It also boasts comfortable amenities such as Air Conditioning, a Multimedia System, and even a bathroom.

Captain Tommy will provide all rods, reels, tackle and fishing licenses. All you need to bring are any food and drinks you might want. Everything you reel in is yours if you want to keep it (in season), and Captain Tommy will happily clean any keepers. These exciting trips can host up to 6 people, so make sure you bring some good company! This trip during the high season reflects a slightly higher price than the rest of the year.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
