  Wild Child and Captain Tim are the best

  4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 20, 2026 • 5 adults

  We had a great experience fishing on the Wild Child with Captain Tim. Not only was the boat comfortable, but the equipment and technology on board were very helpful and easy to use. Captain Tim took time to explain everything. He got us in the right water for the right fish. This was the first deep sea fishing experience for half of our group, and boy will it be hard to top. Not only did we catch good eating fish, Captain Tim filleted them for us! We got quite a bit of Vermilion Snapper, a few Striped Snapper, and even caught a 40 pound Amberjack. Captain Tim looked up Amberjack to see if we could keep it, but it was out of season. Thanks so much Captain Tim. We will for sure do this again.

  Great family boat and captain - very nice outing

  4 Hour Trip (PM) on June 8, 2026 • 6 adults

  We had a relatively calm day and weather. Captain Tim quickly got us onto King Mackerel, then trigger fish and grunts, fun for the family to catch, and we brought home some nice fish filets. Very nice boat and accommodations for the 6 of us, clean, safe, and great equipment. I highly recommend this charter for families of varied fishing experience, or no experience. Captain Tim clearly cares about his clients and making sure everyone is comfortable and having fun.

Last but definitely not least the Captain. Captain Tim was informative nice, on top of it all my grand daughter was confortable with him shes 5, and was genuinely a nice guy I would hang out with. Captain Tim gave us an experience unlike any other!

  Had a great 4 hour trip with Captain Tim. he took care of everything and made sure that the kids had a great time catching fish! Boat was very nice, big and had a covered area to provide protection from the sun! Everyone caught some fish! Definitely would recommend to anyone in the Destin area!
