Awesome Crew & Experience!!
4 Hour (Family Fishing Adventure) - 1:00 PM on October 12, 2026 • 6 adults

This was our 2nd consecutive year of booking with Jayson and Juan, the King of Kings crew. These guys are the best! Very friendly, down-to-earth, and do everything they can to ensure your group has a great experience. Last year was our first ever deep see fishing expedition and this year we had one that had never gone. They greet you at the dock, get you squared away on the boat, provide explanations of the basics, and you’re off! They took us to an awesome spot and as soon as we started dropping bait, the fish started hitting! We caught the limit per person and had a blast! I highly recommend King of Kings and I know we will be booking with them on every trip we can.

Wonderful Trip for My Family
8 Hour (Deep Sea Fishing Adventure) on October 5, 2026 • 3 adults

I cant say enough positive things about Captain Jason and “Lieutenant” Juan. Captain Jason kept us on the fish all day. The day started with Captain Jason and Juan putting on the bait fish. The moment we pulled up, the fish started coming in. after catching bait fish, we moved out to deep water and quickly caught our limit of Amber jack. Afterwards, we moved and started catching red snapper, triggerfish, vermilion snapper. The bite was good all day. Everything ablut the trip was top notch. Juan was very patient with my son who has limited knowledge of fishing. Juan did an excellent job giving instructions on how to fish and he kept our lines baited all day. The only thing we did was throw out and reel in. Juan took care of everything. i will definitely use Captain Jason again. It would be hard to beat the wondeful experience we had today. Thank you Captain Jason and Juan.

First Trip Ever, and it will be hard to beat.
5 Hour (Family Fishing Adventure) - 12:30 PM on October 20, 2026 • 2 adults • 3 children

Captain Jayson and deck hand Juan made this trip a hard one to beat. We took our family of five (kids ages 3, 6, and 8) and they couldn't stop talking about the trip. My 8 year old kept saying how Juan took the time to listen and answer his and his brother's questions. Very enjoyable and memorable trip. If you are thinking about taking a trip like this with your family I highly encourage using a family friendly crew like King of Kings.

Best Trip I’ve ever went on
6 Hr (Family Fishing Adventure) on August 26, 2026 • 3 adults

Absolutely outstanding fishing charter! The captain and first mate were top-notch from start to finish. We stayed busy catching fish the entire 6-hour trip, and they worked hard to keep everyone on fish. The first mate was lightning fast, constantly baiting hooks, removing fish, and making sure lines were back in the water without missing a beat. Their teamwork, knowledge, and dedication made the trip smooth, enjoyable, and successful. If you're looking for a professional crew that works hard and puts you on fish, I highly recommend this charter. We had an amazing time and will definitely be booking again! 🎣🐟 Thanks for an unforgettable day on the water! for an unforgettable day on the water

Best experience!
4 Hour (Family Fishing Adventure) on July 15, 2026 • 5 adults

Captain Jayson delivered an outstanding deep sea fishing adventure from start to finish. He was professional, knowledgeable, and worked hard all day to keep us on the fish. You can tell he has years of experience and genuinely wants everyone on the boat to have a great time. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and safety was clearly a priority. Captain Jayson knew exactly where to go, explained everything clearly, and made the trip enjoyable whether you were an experienced angler or fishing for the first time. We caught plenty of fish, had an incredible day on the water, and made memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a captain who is friendly, hardworking, and committed to giving you the best possible deep sea fishing experience, I highly recommend Captain Jayson. We’ll definitely be booking another trip with him!

Angler's Choice
The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Captain Jayson Self began his fishing career with vacations to Destin back in 1985. Catfishing and Pinfishing got him hooked for life. Jayson spent the next four summers in Destin with his family, where he fished weekly with Captain Tommy Browning, the local legend. By the late 1980s, Jayson was a tournament angler, having fished with no other than his own mother as a teammate. But it wasn't until 2015 when Jayson was finally able to realize the family dream of having his own charter boat. He now makes a living fishing full time and is exceptional at what he does.

    Captain Jayson and deck hand Juan made this trip a hard one to beat. We took our family of five (kids ages 3, 6, and 8) and they couldn't stop talking about the trip. My 8 year old kept saying how Juan took the time to listen and answer his and his brother's questions. Very enjoyable and memorable trip. If you are thinking about taking a trip like this with your family I highly encourage using a family friendly crew like King of Kings.

    This was our 2nd consecutive year of booking with Jayson and Juan, the King of Kings crew. These guys are the best! Very friendly, down-to-earth, and do everything they can to ensure your group has a great experience. Last year was our first ever deep see fishing expedition and this year we had one that had never gone. They greet you at the dock, get you squared away on the boat, provide explanations of the basics, and you’re off! They took us to an awesome spot and as soon as we started dropping bait, the fish started hitting! We caught the limit per person and had a blast! I highly recommend King of Kings and I know we will be booking with them on every trip we can.

    I cant say enough positive things about Captain Jason and “Lieutenant” Juan. Captain Jason kept us on the fish all day. The day started with Captain Jason and Juan putting on the bait fish. The moment we pulled up, the fish started coming in. after catching bait fish, we moved out to deep water and quickly caught our limit of Amber jack. Afterwards, we moved and started catching red snapper, triggerfish, vermilion snapper. The bite was good all day. Everything ablut the trip was top notch. Juan was very patient with my son who has limited knowledge of fishing. Juan did an excellent job giving instructions on how to fish and he kept our lines baited all day. The only thing we did was throw out and reel in. Juan took care of everything. i will definitely use Captain Jason again. It would be hard to beat the wondeful experience we had today. Thank you Captain Jason and Juan.

    Absolutely outstanding fishing charter! The captain and first mate were top-notch from start to finish. We stayed busy catching fish the entire 6-hour trip, and they worked hard to keep everyone on fish. The first mate was lightning fast, constantly baiting hooks, removing fish, and making sure lines were back in the water without missing a beat. Their teamwork, knowledge, and dedication made the trip smooth, enjoyable, and successful. If you're looking for a professional crew that works hard and puts you on fish, I highly recommend this charter. We had an amazing time and will definitely be booking again! 🎣🐟 Thanks for an unforgettable day on the water! for an unforgettable day on the water

    We (myself and my two sons, 16 and 10) took an 8 hour trip with Captain Jason and Juan. It was my youngest son’s first trip and it did not disappoint. Captain Jayson and Juan had us fishing the whole time! Juan was absolutely great with my boys! We caught tons of red snapper, mingo snapper, triggerfish, red grouper, and others that we released. Captain Jayson gave us a great time and we will be calling them back in the future!

    We caught a variety of fish! Storms came and the captain communicated a reschedule with no issue. The fish we caught were delicious! The kids and we had a blast! If we come back to Destin we would fish with this crew again!
