Leave Destin behind and head out to the Gulf of Mexico's hottest fishing grounds! You'll enjoy some stunning scenery while you cruise towards productive honey holes. Depending on the season and what is biting, your targeted species will include Red Snapper, Triggerfish, wahoo, Amberjack, and many more. You'll troll and bottom fish to catch the bite. Standard tip for the first mate is about 20% of the total trip price and is not included in your trip price.

Bottom Fishing & Trolling for all kinds of Gulf Species. Kindly note: For safety reasons, these trips are not recommended for guests who are pregnant. Thank you for your understanding.

Six-hour trips are the minimum required trip if you want to target Red Snapper (when in season). You need time to travel further away from Destin to have a better chance of catching this fish. You can also do some nearshore trolling for King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Bonito, and/or bottom fishing for Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Triggerfish, and Porgy. (Shark fishing is also an exciting option if you would like to try and catch a trophy fish while in Destin.)

Morning trips are known to be more productive, and Captain Tim will make sure that's the case. It's best to get out early and get the early bite and beat the heat! You'll be fishing for the likes of Snapper, Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Cobia, and plenty more besides. Rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price of the trip.

With an 8hr, you have time troll for (Mackerel and Mahi) and drop a live bait to the bottom (for a Snapper or Grouper).

Spend the day going a few miles from the beach enjoying catching Red Snapper, Vermilion (Mingo’s) Snapper, King Mackerel and even possibly a Mahi-Mahi!!
