Michigan, US•Member since 20265.0VerifiedCharter fishing Spring Break 2026
3 Hour Trip – Spring - 12:00 PM • 6 adults • 2 childrenWe spent Spring Break 2026 in Destin for my son’s senior year. He really wanted to go deep sea fishing so we booked a 3hr trip with Capt Jonathan. The gulf was too rough to go out deep sea fishing but Captain Jonathan offered to give us our money back or said we could still go fishing in the bay; who knows when we would get a chance to go salt water fishing again so we opted to still go fishing. Captain Jonathan was friendly, knowledgeable and everyone caught fish! He cleaned and filleted the fish and recommended a great restaurant that will cook the fish for us. We enjoyed our afternoon with Captain Jonathan and would highly recommend booking a charter trip with him!

3 Hour Trip – Spring - 12:00 PM • 4 adults • 2 childrenWe went out for the three hour afternoon trip and were on fish the entire time. Four of us went and one of us was always on a fish. we caught red snapper, mangrove snapper, venitian snapper, sand perch, trigger fish and some other fish I didn’t pay much attention to. It was to hard take pictures, video and reel in a fish all at the same time. I would HIGHLY recommend Jonathan to anyone visiting the Destin area. He was incredibly helpful and had us on fish the entire three hours.

3 Hour Trip – Summer - 12:00 PM • 4 adultsThe fish weren’t biting that day but we tried a bunch of spots and my kids and nephew caught a few decent ones and they had a blast for their first time charter fishing so I was pleased and the captain was a nice guy and was on the spot baiting their hook and casting for them which was cool. I was there just to watch them have fun! I would use the guy again for sure.

What's biting with East Pass Inshore Charters in Destin
As the crowds start to die down, there's no sign of the fishing going anywhere. The weather is still warm, so you should take advantage of this time of year, when Tuna and Sailfish come close to shore.
