Nino and he’ll make sure you have an action-packed trip that won’t soon be forgotten!

Your vessel for the day is a 46’ Bertram yacht, which comes powered by twin 800 HP Detroit Diesel engines. Originally built in 1995, the boat was upgraded in 2016 and comes fitted with all the creature comforts. It provides comfortable fishing space for up to 6 guests and is equipped for hooking the bite. Its navigational electronics include GPS, VHF radio, a radar, and Fishfinder.

“Into The Blue” is also fitted with a flybridge to aid in your fish search, as well as an ice-box to keep the catch fresh, downriggers for a professional fishing experience, and the live to entice the bite. Inside, the yacht is air-conditioned, has a toilet, a shower, a kitchen, a bed, a multimedia system, and a TV. The perfect place to relax in between the bites!

On your day out with Captain Nino, you’ll be heading offshore for some big action, as well as fishing the wrecks and reefs. The Captain specializes in catching a wide range of species, including Red Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, Barracuda, Cobia, King Mackerel, Swordfish, Spanish Mackerel, Swordfish, Mangrove and Vermillion Snapper, Grouper… and the list goes on!

A fishing trip with Captain Nino aboard “Into The Blue” comes inclusive with licenses for you and your group, as well as all the necessary rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and lures. If you decide to keep the catch, the first mate will clean and fillet it for you at the end of the day. He works hard to make sure you have a good time and a 20% tip is customary and not included in your trip price.

Head home with your head held high and a just reward for your workout after a day with Into The Blue!

6 Hour Trip (AM)

Best trip ever

VERIFIED

My son and I have been on several fishing trips with other members of our family. This year we decided to take our younger daughter, my wife also joined us. This was by far away, our best trip to date. We were immediately on fish, the boat was clean, and the trip to the fishing spot was smooth. The equipment was in excellent working condition. The captain and crew kept our hooks baited. There were four of us fishing with multiple set ups, ready to go after a fish was brought in. We look forward to fishing with them in the future in particular during an overnight swordfishing trip. Would recommend to anyone, they went above and beyond to help the kids have a good time and to teach them How to fish in the deep water.

8 Hour Trip

Best Charter in Destin

VERIFIED

I’ve been on tons of charters throughout my life. This one was by far the best! Captain Nino put us on the fish from the jump and his mates Groovy and Mateus never let us have a moment not reeling in a fish. I would say we lost count of the fish but it was close to 70! Monster fish and tons of them. My friend had so much fun he threw up(aka was a touch sea sick and reeling in an amber jack-he landed it and puked over the side). Then was back at it. 24 hours later my shoulder is still aching from cranking in all the fish. If you want the best day on the water this is the boat to be on. Just be prepared to take some Advil the next day, totally worth it!!!!

Great Family Fishing Trip

VERIFIED

This 6 hour fishing trip could not have been better. Captain Nino did a fantastic job of putting us on top of fish and knowing when to move to the next spot. Caught our limit of red snapper, a nice black snapper and a good sized bonita. Threw back many fish for not making the slot size including a small shark. First mate Groovy did a super job explaining everything and he along with Smiley busted their behinds keeping bait on rigs and coaching up the group. Will definitely be calling on Nino and Into The Blue for future fishing trips!!

Great 8 hour charter with Capt. Nemo on INTO THE BLUE! First fish landed was a Trophy Cobia! Caught the limit of Amberjack, some nice Triggerfish and smaller Red Fish too! Came back to Tennessee with a cooler full of fish. Outstanding day of fishing action! Already making plans to book another 8 hour trip with Capt. Nemo and First Mate Groovy next year!
