There's a fish with your name on it in Destin and Catching Memories will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Brian knows them forwards and back.

These waters are known for Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Snowy Grouper, Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Lane Snapper, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Wahoo, and more – with any luck, it won't be long before 'Fish on!' On these trips, it's common to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Capt. Brian will bring you aboard a 48' Post sportfishing vessel with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, and 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, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. It's customary to tip the Mate 20% to show your appreciation.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. There will be bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own drinks. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Catching Memories!

4 Hour Trip - 7:30 AM on May 12, 20261 adult1 child
The boat and crew were fantastic. I had my 11 yr old grandson with me and the reels were hard for him to handle but the crew helped him a lot. Maybe a smaller rod could have been helpful. We caught alot of fish but could only keep 2 due to size restrictions. Overall just the experience was worth the trip.

Patrick thank you for your review. We appreciate your business and i hope to see you back next year for a longer trip and bigger fish. I see you gave us low review on the boat can I ask why? what was it about the boat that made you give less then 5 stars? was it the rods is the reason? I would like to fix it whatever it is

I am only leaving a 5 Star review because 6 Stars wasn't an option. The crew was knowledgeable, helpful, and did what ever they could to make sure we had the best fishing trip ever. I plan on booking another Charter with them again. It was a great experience!!!
