If you're ready to have fun fishing in Destin, book a trip with Rebellious Fish Company.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Amberjack, Cobia, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Scamp Grouper, Almaco Jack, Lane Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Gray Triggerfish, and plenty more.

On these trips, it's common to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Capt. Amstutz runs a 28' Center console with capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

Your captain will provide rods and reels. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

You can't go wrong when you bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

    A Five-Star Charter from Start to Finish!

    5 Hour Trip — Multispecies on July 31, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Josh and his son, Nick, are hands down the best charter duo we’ve ever fished with! From the moment we stepped on the boat, they made our family of four feel comfortable and welcome. They were kind, friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and worked tirelessly to keep us on the fish. We caught so many different species that they stayed busy baiting hooks and helping us reel them in all day! Their patience, expertise, and great energy made the entire experience so much fun. Thank you, Captain Josh and Nick, for helping us create unforgettable family memories that we’ll be talking about for years to come. And the fun didn’t stop when we got back! The snapper ceviche, blackened mack, and vermilion snapper tacos were absolutely fantastic. Thank you for the recipe recommendations—they were a huge hit with our family! We can’t wait for our next trip with y’all. If you’re looking for an amazing fishing charter, this is the one to book!

    Great Trip!

    6 Hour Trip — Multispecies on July 24, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 child

    Even though we had to move our fishing trip back due to the tropical storm “Bertha”. Captain Joshua was able to get us on the water and on fish before we had to head back home. With the help of his first mate Nick we pulled in some awesome fish like red grouper, and a monster Gag grouper, unfortunately they were not in season so we couldn’t keep them but an unforgettable fight to remember. We caught some vermillion snapper so still got to bring some fillets home. The captain and first mate were great to conversate with and I would highly recommend them. If I get the chance I will definitely be booking another trip with Rebellious Fish Company in the future.

    Wonderful experience

    5 Hour Trip — Multispecies - 12:00 PM on August 5, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Josh and Nick were fantastic. They were great both with our more experienced 13 year old son and our 8 year old girly girl daughter. We caught mahi, trigger fish, red grouper, red snapper, soappy grouper, vermillion snapper, and ruby reds. We will definitely recommend them to friends and family and fish with them again on our next trip.

    Great first time experience fishing on the gulf!

    4 Hour Trip — The Warm Up on July 9, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    Captain Josh and his son Nick did a phenomenal job show us the ropes and hooking up with Vermillion Snapper (which we took back for a lunch/dinner), triggerfish and the really hard and exhilarating amberjack. These guys were super respectful, answered any all questions, helped out every step of the way.. I don’t know what else to say but thanks for a great time!

    Fantastic trip!!

    8 Hour Trip — Multispecies on June 25, 2026 • 2 adults

    The weather got to us a little bit, but captin Josh made the right decision and pushed back for an hour and we went out and caught plenty of fish. Josh knew all the good spots and when a spot wasn’t active he knew exactly where to move to. Amazing experience and would recommend to anyone wanting a family friendly and amazing experience.
