Trip Summary

Destin can get a little chilly during the winter but we still get plenty of days where the sun pops out and it feels great. No matter what the conditions, though, fish gotta eat! We target redfish, speckled trout, mangrove snapper, sheepshead, pompano, black drum, and flounder during the winter months using both live bait and artificial lures.
