    Great Trip

    10 Hour Trip • 5 adults • 3 children

    I had a 10 hr trip booked for my son in law and 3 grandsons. The weather turned bad the day of the trip, but Captain Mike and Dominique salvaged the trip by doing a nearshore 4 hr trip in order to allow my grandsons the opportunity to so some trolling. My grandsons all caught a bunch of bonita and had a blast. The weather was extremely windy and 5’-6’ waves. Captain Mike and Dominque made the trip completely safe. If you’re looking for a great charter, look no further. Thank you Captain Mike and Mate Dominique. We will be back.

    actually, it really was the best trip ever!

    6 Hour Trip (AM) • 4 adults

    Capt Mike and 1st mate Dom were literal warriors for willing to be out in 6’ swells all day. The capt never batted an eye and made sure we caught plenty and had a blast before taking us back in. I’ve been on over 10 charter boats in Destin before, the Huntress has been the best by far. We’ll be back again next year!

    Reported catch:
    Amberjack
    Bonito
    Wahoo
    Gray Triggerfish

    10 Hour Trip • 6 adults

    Capt. Mike was excellent at finding fish. Zach and Dom made sure all baits were good and hustled all day on our 10 hour trip. We managed to make the leader board in three spots in the Destin Fishing Rodeo. Highly recommend "Huntress".

    Great trip

    8 Hour Trip • 6 adults • 1 child

    We had a great time. Targeted tuna, unfortunately the sharks were there but we had a great time fishing the ones that hit. Had a younger fisherman in our party and Mike made sure he had a trip to remember getting us on some Virmillion Snapper. Justin worked hard to make sure our lines were in the water the whole time. We can’t wait to get back in the boat and try again. 10/10 would recommend this boat and crew.

    Thanks again Matthew:) Looking forward to you next fishing adventure on the Huntress!
