We offer deep sea fishing charters and dolphin excursions. We are located in Fort Walton Beach just five miles west of the Destin Pass. If you are visiting Destin, Okaloosa Island, Fort Walton Beach or Navarre our dock is just a few minutes away. We target a variety of fish on our fishing trips. These include red snapper, grouper, triggerfish, amberjack, mingo snapper, king mackerel, cobia, mahi mahi, sharks and more.
You will catch fish on our fishing trips, guaranteed. If you don't catch fish, you don't pay. We are one of the few center console boats in Fort Walton Beach and Destin licensed to fish in both state and and federal waters. If you book a deep sea fishing charter with us you will have the option of staying in sight of land and fishing in state waters, or heading off-shore for a more serious day of fishing.

Thank you for taking the time to tour our site and consider us for your next trip. I know you have many choices when it comes to fishing guides in our area so I wanted to share with you a little about myself. I joined the United States Air Force in 1993 and was stationed here directly after basic training.

Deep Sea Fishing
Report
Fort Walton Beach and Destin is home to some of the best deep sea fishing charters in the nation. That's because our area has some of the best fishing available and the bite is hot year around. With 25 years experience fishing this area, we know exactly where to go to put you on these fish. Over the years we have built an inexhaustible list of hot fishing spots and we stay in tune with which one is holding what.
What’s Biting
Report
We often get inquires as to what type of fish can be caught during certain times of the year. In January and February, the fish are hungry and will keep you busy, but it's just a lot cooler and there are less fishing friendly days due to weather patterns. There are also a number of seasonal closures that will limit what we take home.
