Join Right Side Charters for an amazing day on the water! This family-owned charter is based in Destin, the heart of Florida's fishing scene.

Hop aboard our 22’ Sea Hunt BX bay boat that's been recently upgraded with a four-stroke Suzuki engine. This boat is perfect for navigating the area since it has a much deeper V-hull than similar models. That allows her to cut through waves easily and keep the ride smooth and dry for everyone on board. With higher sides, the boat is extra safe for kids, while the T-top will keep everyone in the shade.

Capt. Wyatt will provide you with everything you need to fish – fishing licenses, life jackets, safety gear, tackle, rods, and bait. Just bring sunscreen, sunglasses, hats, and a small cooler with ice with some drinks and snacks.

Depending on the time of year, the weather, and the fish, no trip is the same and there’s always something exciting going on. Join Right Side Charters and have a day to remember!

2 Hour – Kids Trip

2 hour Charter with Buddy

VERIFIED

My wife and I wanted an easy going captain and charter for some fishing as well as taking in some sights. The fishing was great and buddy handled everything. We trolled by Crab Island as well as the harborwalk. He was very knowledgeable about the area and this was a really great way to take in the destin area from a water view. Most exciting of all we had a dolphin come right up to the boat to say hi. Fantastic trip, very kind and professional captain. Great for a couple or families with kids. If you are looking for a good all around trip, this is your guy. He even cleaned up a couple of fish for us to take to dinner. Thank Buddy, we hope to book again.

3 Hour – Bay (AM)

Captain Buddy - Did Not Disappoint

VERIFIED

Captain Buddy was a great host & made our son’s first fishing trip a memorable one. We did a 3 hr Bay Trip & it was the perfect amount of time to check out several locations and catch a variety of fish (snapper, speckled trout, redfish) and a BIG one that snapped the line and got away. While some were not slotted to keep, all were fun to catch & we were able to keep enough for lunch. Captain Buddy was extremely patient with our son and even let him “drive the boat” for a little bit. We’d definitely recommend & will be repeat customers on our next trip down.

June fishing trip

VERIFIED

We really enjoyed our trip out with captain Buddy. He has a great boat and equipment, and moved us around to several good spots in the bay where we had plenty of action. We caught several redfish and black drum and even latched on to a good sized one that broke off at the boat😳. Buddy took time to include our kids with conversation and facts about our bait, fish, and surroundings. I am not sure I could have picked a better charter or captain in the area. A+

4 Hour Trip (AM)

Fun Family Trip with Preteens

VERIFIED

Captain Buddy was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this 4 hour fishing trip for families with kids and the experienced fishermen alike. We were new to saltwater fishing and have preteen girls. They were excited to learn and whinny when hot or tired. Captain Buddy was positive and patient the entire trip. The result was a lot of fun for the kids and a good time for mom and dad too. We all caught fish and learned a lot. Buddy’s communication from booking through pictures he texted us after the trip was outstanding. We are looking forward to our next trip!
