Book your next trip with Reel Legend Fishing and find out what makes the fishing in Destin so unique and why we are the fishing capital. With Captain Richie at the helm, you’re in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

These waters are known for Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Snowy Grouper, Red Snapper, Wahoo, Vermilion Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, and more – with any luck, it won’t be long before your hooked up to one and hooked for life. On these trips, you can expect to troll some and bottom fish some. We can also customize it to fit what you want to do.

You’ll be dropping lines from a 48' Morris offshore sport fishing vessel with a capacity for 13 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience, 2 air conditioners, and satellite radio. Rods, reels, tackle, license, and cut bait are included, along with lures. Live bait will be caught as needed for the fish in season or we have the option to buy it also if you would rather do that.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and it’s customary to offer them a 20% tip. Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to seasons and regulations. Simply ask your captain or mate and they can tell you more about the fishery.

It’s always wise to bring sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Your trip with Reel Legend Fishing is just a click away, so why not make it happen and let's go make some memories.

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.

The business started out for us as guest being taken out fishing on this very boat. Having a love for the ocean and fishing we decided one day to purchase this business. Having a love for providing a special experience for our guest and making memories is what we enjoy. Once you've fished in Destin you will be hooked! Just like we were. I would say my favorite species of fish is definently grouper, fun to fight and great to eat!!
