Freeport Scamp Grouper Fishing Charters

5-hour trip is normally going to be a dead bait bottom fishing trip for snappers triggerfish and possibly grouper. Will be trolling to and from the spots for King mackerel wahoo and Bonita.

If you want the waters all to yourself, this is your trip. Bottom fish and troll for whatever is in the season. Target Snappers, Groupers, all other reef fish while bottom fishing, or troll for the pelagics such as Kingfish, Spanish, Wahoos, Bonitos, and even Mahi. On this adventure we typically travel farther offshore to fish deeper waters using bigger tackle in search of the sea monsters! Great trip for avid anglers.

8 hour trips are recommended if you want to target Red Snapper (when in season). This longer trip also allows more time for exploration and a chance to catch bigger King Mackerel, Blackfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Scamp Grouper, Gag Grouper (when in season, Red Grouper, Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, and Porgies. (Shark fishing is also a very exciting option if you would like to try and catch a trophy fish while in Destin.)

With this package, you can head 35 miles out to target good numbers of pelagic species like Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, and Mahi Mahi. The bottom fishing with this package is also good, catching deep-water Snappers and Groupers like the super-tasty Scamp Grouper.

Near shore

All day 12hr fun normally consists of fishing around the 50-75 mile range usually resulting in a larger better catch! These trips are for the hard core anglers looking to catch the most and largest species that are in season at the time of your trip. If you’re looking for a meat haul this trip is for you, dont wait book now! Make sure to bring a cooler with your favorite lunch and drinks as will need it after the work you will put in reeling in the monsters!

This trip is in the Gulf of Mexico. Go nearshore (nine-miles, state water) and target Florida's Red Snapper! Also on the menu: Cobia, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Triggerfish, Pompano, and all kinds of Groupers! Florida Wildlife announces the exact season dates mid-Spring each year. The 2024 season is tentatively scheduled for June 14-July 31. Message Captain Rob with questions.

A good trip to use several different fishing techniques and have the time to hit several good feeding grounds. A good trip to get some nice keepers in the cooler and lots of action with our time on the water.

Trip options are 3-hour, 4-hour, and 6-hour for up to 4 adults. Up to 5 passengers may be possible if some of the people are kids.

Our 6 hour trip will allow us to travel to further spots that typically deliver better results and allow more time with lines spent in the water. We will deploy a variety of fishing techniques to include trolling for mackerals and bonita and bottom fishing for various reef species. You will be able to take home what you catch as long as it is within FWC guidelines.
