My family and I have fished with several charter boats out of Destin. I found Fishing Booker online and it did a great job at organizing boats and giving feedback reviews to help navigate who to choose from. I kept coming back to Maximus because of the size of the boat and the great reviews it has. We went out with Captain Chris, and he put us on the Snapper fast. We caught more than half our limit on the first spot. We also caught some grouper and a few other species to bring home. There are some negative reviews about how the captains talk and treat you. Chris has a good personality and would encourage us with some joking and light teasing. We welcomed it and enjoyed the conversations. He did great with our boys ( 16 and 11) and with my wife who caught a magnum, 24 # Red snapper. We would absolutely fish with Chris again.

Captain Justin was wonderful! The boat is comfortable, well equipped,ย and fast. We had a good day on the water.ย Everyone aboard caught some nice fish. We had one newbie fishing with us and Captain Justin helped her with learning the proper techniques to fishing with circle hooks. Would definitely charter with them again.
We had a great afternoon 6hr trip. The boat was exceptional. Very comfortable and had a nice cruising speed around 27knots. We caught our limit of snapper and landed some 2 undersized cobia, 2 under tree grouper and 1 25โ gag grouper which was super fun to catch but unfortunately out of season.
The captain did an amazing job with moving us around to more active fishing spots and keeping our lines baited.
We would definitely use them again.

We booked a trip for myself my husband and our two boys age 15 and 11.ย Captain Chris was so great about helping the kids when needed (and myself). He had us on fish quickly.ย We ended up catching our quota without any issues.ย Boat was clean and gear was well maintained.ย He cleaned all the fish for us and recommended a great place to have our catch cooked up for us for dinner.ย This was a great experience. We will definitely be back with captain Chris
Caught lots of fish. Had three kids and the captain made sure they had a great day fishing.
