Pelican Adventures offers fantastic trips targeting a range of offshore species. Fishing out of Destin, Florida, a town famous for its fishing, they are within easy reach of the bountiful blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Fishing with Pelican Adventures groups of all sizes can find a trip to suit them. From a morning or afternoon out with family or friends catching a Variety of Snapper, King Mackerel, and Trigger, to a 12-hour offshore extravaganza targeting Amberjack and Grouper (and many other amazing species), these guys will have the trip for you. They also provide equipment for a range of fishing techniques including bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, and spinning, and their highly-skilled first mate will work tirelessly to keep the rods bending, no matter how they’re set up.

All Pelican Adventures fishing trips come with fishing licenses for all on board.

We had a great time in “rough” fishing conditions. Captain Mark hit several spots and all 7 of us caught multiple fish with 14-15 keepers. Also Noah always kept us baited up and line in the water. Weather made it tough, but all in all we had a great time!

Great captain and crew. Awesome to work with and we caught a lot of fish.

The captain put us on the fish right away. We absolutely hammered them. Our first mate Clay was very knowledgeable and helped our children keep fishing. I would strongly consider using Pelican Adventures for deep sea fishing trips.
