Captain Steve Brown is a Tennessee native. Growing up, Steve spent most of his time hunting and fishing the banks of the Tennessee River. When Steve graduated with a degree in theology, he went to professionally guide hunting trips in central Montana. But the waters of the 'World's Luckiest Fishing Village' have always been his dream. Steve moved to Destin in 2001 and began learning from other captains and anglers along the Emerald Coast. Eventually, he won 'Captain of the Year' in 2011 and the world famous 'Destin Fishing Rodeo.'

    Had a great time!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 6 adults • 2 children

    Great time. We fish regularly at home but wanted to catch things we dont normally and we did just that. 3 amberjacks, 2 snappers and we hooked onto a shark and we all battled for 30 mins before the line finally snapped. Husband saw it right as the line snapped. Capt Steve seems to know his stuff. We were put on fish everytime with barely any delays. We had 2 adults. 2 teen girls and 2 young boys and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Reported catch:
    Amberjack
    Red Snapper

    I really enjoyed taking you guys, you were so wonderful, it took a little longer catching bait, but I wanted to give you some extra time and it paid off, you guys did fantastic. Such a wonderful family! ❤️

    So much fun!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 6 adults

    Captain Steve was great! He is very knowledgeable and helpful! We all were able to catch some fish using a variety of techniques. I would definitely recommend. We did the morning 4 hour and it was great for us. We ended before it got too warm an still had lots of time to enjoy the rest of the day. Steve even fileted our fish that we caught and kept.

    Awesome Trip!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 3 adults

    Captain Steve was awesome! It was a great trip and Steve is incredibly knowledgeable of the areas. He put us in some great spots. Only regret is that I should’ve made the trip six hours instead of four. 

    Reported catch:
    Red Snapper
    Blacktip Shark
    Vermilion Snapper
    Response from Charter operator

    it was a great trip, we had some great bites, unfortunately, the sharks got way too aggressive on your big snapper! Thank you so much for fishing with me. It was so much fun 🥰

    We had a fantastic time!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    We went on a high swell day and Captain put us on a spot close by about a mile or two out. We hooked a Marlin, a very big shark, and we caught some Bonita! Highly Recommend!

    Response from Charter operator

    very rough seas, you guys were great! I sure wish we could’ve landed that bill fish, but it was very cool to see him greyhounding behind the boat! Thanks for booking with me 🙏
