Coming from Louisiana it’s definitely a different style of fishing than what I am used to fishing but it was still a great experience

Arrive early to pick out your fishing position on the boat. Bring old towels or rags and disinfectant wipes to clean your hands. Your hands will get very messy from handling bait and fish.

Bring sunscreen, drinks, and lunch. They have all the rest. Oh and a rag to wipe your hands from all the fish.

Make sure to pack sunscreen, water, snacks, and wear sun protective clothes! The captain is great about reminding you to hydrate and reapply sunscreen. He checks in and makes sure no one is feeling seasick. You’ll have so much fun!

Don’t wear flip flops, even tennis shoes are better option. Do not bring bananas or even Banana branded products as all Captains are superstitious about bad luck bananas! It’s true, Google it!

I would definitely recommend booking with one of the smaller charters like Karma Charters, rather than the larger charters where you’ll have many more folks aboard. Our personal fishing experience with Rocky was something that you just can’t get with the larger charters.

Highly recommend booking a charter in Destin on Karma with Captain Rocky. He put us on the fish all day long and has decades of experience. We were all worn out from just a 1/2 day charter!!!

A little different experience, you can’t set the hook like you used to, due to the rounded hooks (circle hooks) that are mandated in this area. Could be a little frustrating. Still a lot of fun though.

Currently the gulf is darker than normal due to rain up north, so you will need to be patient, and make sure you book a good charter like this one.

Be ready to catch fish. Be prepared for various weather conditions. Book on length in respect to how far out you want to travel. Longer excursions = farther out = larger, less pressured fish.
