Since the age of 6, Captain Devin has been fishing the Pensacola area. He started as a curious young kid fishing bridges and was taken on several offshore trips as a young boy through family and friends. As time went on, he ventured onto his own boat at the age of 20. Learning the ropes, networking, and getting decent at his hobby drew the captain to the conclusion of turning pleasure into business. He has been fishing these waters his whole life and could never live away from the area.

    Great crew & lots of fun!

    6 Hour Offshore Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    My boyfriend and I caught red snapper, mangrove snapper, a trigger fish, and vermillion snapper. We attempted to catch sharks and amberjack. The captain, Devin, was friendly and helped us out since we are not used to saltwater fishing. He gave us helpful tips, made it a fun trip, and made the most of the time we had. The deckhand was also friendly and very helpful while we fished. The captain communicated well with us before and after the trip to make sure we were taken care of. We had a great time and already want to come back for another trip.

    Reported catch:
    Mangrove Snapper
    Red Snapper
    Gray Triggerfish
    Vermilion Snapper

I dont care who you are, catching 4 ajs back to back will humble you fast but the whole trip we caught fish mingos, rubys, trigger fish a red snapper and four ajs 10/10 i will only be fishing devin from here on out when i come to town

    tough conditions

    6 Hour Offshore Trip (AM) • 5 adults • 2 children

    we chose a rough day to go fishing. tough swells tough conditions. Devin made sure we got our limit of snapper among other things. but we were on fish all day. crew was great and took very good care of our 5 and 6 year old and made sure they were involved all day. would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

    Reported catch:

    What a Trip!

    6 Hour Offshore Trip (AM) • 3 adults

    Capt. Devin and Deckhand Jackson are a smooth running machine. We made a quick stop to catch bait, headed to a spot, and limited on GOOD size Red Snapper within 10 minutes!! It was awesome. With the time We had left, he was able to put us on 4 Amber Jacks. What a day. I definitely reccommend this trip.

    Reported catch:

    Shout out to Captain Devin. Limited out red snapper within an hour and moved on to vermilion snapper. We hooked up on an AJ but unfortunately did not land him. We will definitely use him again.
