About Your Trip

Come aboard with Captain Zach for an exciting day of offshore fishing! The blue waters off of Destin are a great area to go after some of the beautiful big game fish that Florida is known for, and with this trip you'll see it all!

On this 10 to 12-hour trip, Captain Zach will take you off the coast of Destin where you'll be targeting a selection of fish including Amberjack, Cobia, Gag Grouper, King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Sailfish, Wahoo, and maybe even a Tuna bite! You'll be using a variety of methods to catch these fish including light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling and jigging. The best part about this combo trip is you'll have time to try it all! Just let Captain Zach know what you want to catch and he'll get you the best setup and some expert tips. Everything you reel in is yours if you want to keep it, and Captain Zach will happily clean any keepers.

You'll be fishing aboard Captain Zach's luxurious 42’ Custom sportfish that can comfortably fit 6 anglers. Powered by twin Detroit Diesel engines for a combined 600 HP, she'll get you to the prime offshore spots in a hurry! This well-equipped vessel comes with all the necessities including XM Satellite Radio, GPS, Fishfinder, a Live Bait Well, and a Fighting Chair. It also boasts comfortable amenities such as air conditioning, a full-size refrigerator, and freezer, microwave, George Forman Grills, full-size clean restrooms, sleeping accommodation for up to six, Flat-screen Television, carpeted salon, galley, V-birth

Captain Zach will provide all rods, reels, tackle and fishing licenses. All you need to bring is sunglasses, sunscreen, and any snacks or drinks you might need. Join Captain Zach for an offshore excursion and make some memories to last a lifetime!

Captain Zach initially was unavailable but he got us hooked up with another boat quick and it was a great trip! The captain and his first mate were very knowledgeable about where the fish were and we never had to wait for bait, they got our poles ready, took the fish off and we had a great experience! The boat was very clean and we will for sure book with them next year!
Highly recommend!

We have been deep sea fishing 6 or 7 times and by far this has been our best experience so far! Captain Zach and First Mate Jason with No Alibi had us on fish from the word go and we kept catching all day throughout our 12 hour trip!

Captain Zach and first mate Jason were amazing! They made sure to get my 7 year old son his first deep sea catch! They knew exactly where to go to find the big boy fish. It took less than a minute to snag a 40lber right off the bat. We were catching fish all day...it was awesome!

Can't wait to visit them again! Thanks for an awesome day!

We had a great time on the boat with Zach and Josh. Had great communication, caught lots of fish, Josh went above and beyond for all of the ladies to be taken care of with our fishing bait and catch. I will be doing this again. Highly recommend! Having Aunt Trish on board was an extra bonus😊
