Shellback Fishing Charter LLC
Book your next trip with Shellback Charters and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Destin for more. Your guide for the day is Captain Kenneth, bringing aboard years of knowledge and experience.
Species like Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Red Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Gag Grouper, Gray Triggerfish, Cobia, Red Grouper, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Mahi Mahi, and more inhabit these waters, depending on the time of year. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Don't forget to bring snacks to keep up those energy levels!
You'll be dropping lines from a 26' Crevalle center console with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, and all the essentials. 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 you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Your trip with Shellback Charters is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

4 Hour Trip – Offshore (AM)
Such a great experience!
We had such a great time on our fishing charter with Captain Kenny! I went with my family, and it was an experience we’ll never forget. Kenny was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the trip feel fun and easy for everyone. We caught some awesome fish and really enjoyed being out on the water. It was the perfect mix of excitement and relaxation. I’d definitely do it again and recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and memorable adventure on the water. Thanks again, Captain Kenny!

6 Hour Trip – Offshore (AM)
Great Charter
We had a great time on the 6 hour morning trip offshore. Kenny knew exactly where the fish were. He had several good spots. We caught plenty of vermillion reds and several larger fish, including a big cobia, Mahi Mahi and redfish. Would definitely recommend Kenny as your guide.
