If you are looking for an incredible fishing experience, look no further than Captain Mitchell! Yesterday was our very first time doing a charter trip like this, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

From the moment we stepped on the boat, Captain Mitchell made us all feel incredibly comfortable and welcome. He is a genuinely nice guy, extremely helpful, and he clearly knows these waters inside and out. He took us straight to some fantastic spots where the action didn’t stop.

We ended up catching:
4 Redfish
1 Trout
A Stingray (so cool to see!)
A Jack Crevalle (a wild, hard-fighting exotic-looking fish!)

What we appreciated most was Captain Mitchell’s genuine respect for nature. He treated all the fish humanely, and we only kept exactly what we intended to eat for dinner that night, safely releasing the rest.

He made sure we had everything we needed, coached us through the catches, and made the entire day a blast. He also recommended some places to take the fish we caught for dinner. Highly recommended!

We went as a family of 4 (2 older teens), it’s hard to get them to enjoy much with us now they are older. They both had an awesome time and so did Dad! As the mom, I loved it as my first time salt water fishing! We all caught probably around 7 or more trout and a few other fish that we couldn’t keep. The guide Justin was very attentive to us and would help when needed but also let us bait/cast and do as much as we wanted(which I like) He was laid back, friendly, and helpful. The guide made this a fun, peaceful fishing trip! We had the fish cooked at Kennny Ds half fried and half blackened (I prefer) and it was so delicious! Thank you and I look forward to another trip soon!

We were more than happy with our experience. I am not the type to spin anything into sunshine and rainbows if it wasn’t. 2.5hrs of our 4hr charter we hooked fish non-stop. early on we had a triple hookup. A red fish and 2 spotted trout at the same time! we even had the ‘terrible misfortune’ of having to throw back over a half dozen fish because they were too big. (pretty good problem to have!) That includes a redfish that was too big and also so much fun to fight. There were also many spotted trout that were just over the slot limit. he was also very meticulous in getting as much meet as possible from the fish. I have had charters where they butcher the fish and miss a lot of meat. Captain Blake even made sure to get the cheek meat from the redfish.
Absolutely great time. I would never hesitate to book with captain Blake!

Slot Redfish on the first cast.  Caught fish consistently the entire trip.  Tackle was great and well maintained.  The boat was very capable, clean and comfortable.  The power pole was excellent holding the boat in and around the grass beds.  Having previously fished for red’s in Venice, Destin did not disappoint!  Choctawhatchee Bay is loaded and Captain Mitchell put me on em.  Great trip!

Our captain, Mitchell, provided my wife and myself an exceptional morning fishing trip. we gathered bait, he put us on fish (about 25), and at the end he filleted the fish we kept.
The Henderson Resort(Primrose restaurant) prepared an outstanding grilled/blackened fish platter with several different sauces on the side. The real deal-hats off to Mitchell-he’s got a great personality, was a hard worker(we just caught fish!), and he’s a great asset for your charter company!
