I have been fishing since I was 10 years old. I have always loved fishing and will never get tired of it. Watching the smiles and excitement of people catching their first fish is one of the best feelings in the world. So come aboard and let me show you how fanatical I am about fishing!

    ​A Premium Charter Experience from Start to Finish

    6 Hour Trip • 4 adults

    This is an absolute first-class operation. The boat is pristine, and the gear is top-notch. ​Even with a slow start to the morning, Capt. Chip made quick moves to keep us on the action and made the absolute most of our 6-hour trip. Our deckhand, Chris, was professional, polite, and lightning-fast. We were completely worn out from reeling in fish by the end, topped off by a monster 22+ lb red snapper! ​If you want a premium fishing experience, this is the crew to book. Highly recommended! ​— Clayt (Cuero, TX)

    Captain Blake and his First Mate, Jake definitely checked all the boxes for an exciting and fun filled day out on the water! Blake ensured we had the best time and worked hard to keep us on the fish despite choppy seas. We started on time, Blake and Jake were very helpful and patient with my guests who most of which have never been off-shore fishing before, and there was excellent communication the entire day. We booked an 8 hour trip and after we spent some time caching live bait, we started trolling for wahoo and Mahi. After awhile when we weren't seeing any success trolling, we switched to bottom fishing and ended with a respectable haul. We caught a wide variety of fish, including red and vermillion snapper, red grouper, almaco jack, and porgy. I even was able to catch my personal best fish, a nice gag grouper. As our trip neared the end, we trolled most of the way back in. This was a very fun and memorable experience despite the thunderstorms and the rough water . It was definitely worth the money and I would put Finatical Charters at the top of my list of things to do on my next trip to the Destin area.

    Communication was great. We booked a 6hr morning trip. My son wasn’t wanting to fish just for meat, he wanted to go a bit deeper and catch something bigger. We talked to the crew and they worked hard to make sure my teen and family got to do just that. Boat was in great shape, felt comfortable with them and boat from beginning. It was just a short drive from Destin and much quicker and easier to get to then many of them in that area I’m glad we chose it. We will definitely book again and looking at a longer trip!
