Mark WilliamsRepeat angler5.0VerifiedNewGreat Trip
10 Hour Trip on October 6, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 childrenI had a 10 hr trip booked for my son in law and 3 grandsons. The weather turned bad the day of the trip, but Captain Mike and Dominique salvaged the trip by doing a nearshore 4 hr trip in order to allow my grandsons the opportunity to so some trolling. My grandsons all caught a bunch of bonita and had a blast. The weather was extremely windy and 5’-6’ waves. Captain Mike and Dominque made the trip completely safe. If you’re looking for a great charter, look no further. Thank you Captain Mike and Mate Dominique. We will be back.

10 Hour Trip on October 3, 2026 • 6 adultsCapt. Mike was excellent at finding fish. Zach and Dom made sure all baits were good and hustled all day on our 10 hour trip. We managed to make the leader board in three spots in the Destin Fishing Rodeo. Highly recommend "Huntress".

Great trip. On fish from first drop to last!
8 Hour Trip on June 24, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 childrenBooked an 8 hour trip for 2 adults and 3 kids. Was on fish all day. Caught our limit of snapper and fished rest of the day for others. Great with kids. Would recommend and go again.
FishingBooker Member5.0Excellence Abounds
10 Hour Trip on October 1, 2024My family and friends have been fishing with Captain Mike and Isabel for over 12 years. Our annual trips to Destin are not complete unless we fish on The Huntress. We have many memorable trips fishing the Gulf. Captain Mike and First Mate Carter are the epitome of professionalism. From the moment you step on the boat until you leave, you are treated first class! My daughter Mo has grown up fishing with Captain Mike and I can tell you there is no other Captain that I would trust with her. The Huntress is about family and lifelong friendships. After all, isn’t that what fishing is all about? I cannot speak highly enough of this Charter. Yes, there are other boats to choose from but if you want the best, then look no further! I promise you will not be disappointed! Wishing you calm seas and fair winds from Texas!
Diana Stinson5.0You will catch fish! Huntress - Gulf of America
6 Hour Trip (AM) on October 30, 2023My family has been fishing with Capt. Mike for over 20 years! He knows where the fish are and first mate Carter makes sure he lands them on board! The Huntress is well-equipped with state of the art marine electronics, live well, clean restroom and air conditioned cabin. It is conveniently located at AJ's Seafood dock. We have fished for Triggerfish, Snapper, Amberjack, Grouper in season and have landed our limit of Blackfin tuna during the Rodeo. Thanks Capt.Mike and Carter for the memories of a lifetime - It's what keeps us coming back!

Capt Mike and 1st mate Dom were literal warriors for willing to be out in 6’ swells all day. The capt never batted an eye and made sure we caught plenty and had a blast before taking us back in. I’ve been on over 10 charter boats in Destin before, the Huntress has been the best by far. We’ll be back again next year!
Thank you so much Frank. The Gulf was angry but you guys hung tough and you have my respect! We look forward to your next fishing adventure on the Huntress!
Capt. Mike was excellent at finding fish. Zach and Dom made sure all baits were good and hustled all day on our 10 hour trip. We managed to make the leader board in three spots in the Destin Fishing Rodeo. Highly recommend "Huntress".
We had a great time. Targeted tuna, unfortunately the sharks were there but we had a great time fishing the ones that hit. Had a younger fisherman in our party and Mike made sure he had a trip to remember getting us on some Virmillion Snapper. Justin worked hard to make sure our lines were in the water the whole time. We can’t wait to get back in the boat and try again. 10/10 would recommend this boat and crew.
Thanks again Matthew:) Looking forward to you next fishing adventure on the Huntress!
Booked an 8 hour trip for 2 adults and 3 kids. Was on fish all day. Caught our limit of snapper and fished rest of the day for others. Great with kids. Would recommend and go again.
Thanks, Mark! We enjoyed fishing with you and your family! Tell those boys that Captain Mike and Justin are ready to go whenever they are!
