    Rocky is awesome!

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on June 9, 2026 • 5 adults

    Really nice guy, took us out to the best spots where we caught a huge grouper loads of snapper and even a sea turtle came up to the surface that we reeled in and set free. Great for families and people who want to catch some big fish. Make sure to bring some sunscreen. Future guests should be super excited to go on this trip

    We caught several grouper and red snapper along with trigger fish and a few other types of fish. Captain Rocky took great care of us and gave us plenty of pointers while putting us right on top of the fish.

    Its going to be like this All day Rock!

    Half Day Trip on June 24, 2026 • 4 adults

    Our group of 4 had a perfect half day experience with Captain Rock. Live bait had the Red Snappers biting consistently and for beginner fishers it was easy and stress free. Captain Rock even cleaned our fish for us after the catch and bagged it up for us to take back with us. Overall great experience.

    THE TRIP

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on June 22, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

    We had an awesome trip in June. Caught a few fish with tons of bites. They’re were 6 of us and beside me getting green all day, which is the first time ever deep sea fishing, we had a blast. Captain was on point and out is on top of fish the whole time. Everything we caught unfortunately was out of season.

An avid angler since he can remember, Captain Rocky always wanted to make a living on the water. As he says himself, he never was a 'dry kid, always in the water!' He's been fishing professionally out of Destin since 1984 and never tires of exploring the Gulf's riches. He's done it all and loves nothing more than sharing his passion with children and other beginners. Their excitement is his excitement, so he hopes to 'help people catch that fish that'll make their day, their year, their life!'

    Rocky our captain was great, unfortunately in August catch and keep is limited due to regulations. Rocky however was able to get us on some large Amberjacks and we had the thrill of hauling in some reef donkeys. Rocky is very experienced, and knows the water and fishing holes well. We definitely enjoyed our time with Rock just the timing of our visit didn’t allow us to keep our catch!
