DESTIN DOLPHIN CRUISES
               FISHING DESTIN CHARTER BOATS

With Destin's location next to the East Pass, the Gulf of Mexico is just a few minutes away from the docks of Destin.
Home of Florida's largest charter boat fleet, over 100 boats are available to take you on a wide range of fishing adventures.  You
can stay in the Choctawhatchee Bay for your shot at a Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, Sheepshead,  or Speckled trout. Or go 23 miles
offshore to the "Edge", home of some of the best fishing in the world. Reel in a red snapper, mingo snapper, Grouper, Amberjack,
or shark while bottom fishing. Or troll for a trophy King mackerel, Tuna, Wahoo, or Dolphin. Go a little further and you are in blue
water fishing for big game fish such as Marlin and Sailfish.

There are two types of private charter boats in Destin, the large Offshore boats used to fish miles from land and the smaller Inshore
boats used to fish the bay and close to the shore.

                          OFFSHORE CHARTER BOATS:

This is the most expensive but probably
the most rewarding and enjoyable.
Here you rent a large fishing boat, from
36 to over 60' long. You and your group
have the boat to yourselves and the
will coordinate with the Captain when
you book the trip what type of fishing
you want to do.

The price of a private charter averages
between $150 and $180 dollars per
hour, for up to 6 people. If there are
more than 6 people in your group it will
cost an additional 10% for each person
over 6. Some boats only take 6
passengers, so make it clearly
understood how many people you have
and how many your boat can hold.




A professional crew comes with your
charter, usually consisting of a
Captain and a mate. Of course the
Captain is in charge and will be driving
the boat and putting you on the fishing
spots.
















The mate will be on deck with you and
will probably be the one you work with.
He will show you how to bait the hooks,
operate the rod and reels and catch
fish. He will also bring your fish into
the boat and place it in on ice for the
trip home. Once you get back to dock,
he will also clean your fish for you and
hand the fillets to you  in a plastic bag.













If you do not have enough people in your group and want to split the costs with other people, that is ok. They call this a Group
Charter. To sign up for a group charter, walk up to one of the several dockside ticket booths and ask if they have any lists for a
group charter.  You will be joined up
together with other people to split the
boat equally. Typically there has to be a
total of 6 fisherman signed up to make a
group charter go, or you agree to pay the
cost for six people. Group charters are a
good way to go if there are only a few
people and they do not want to charter the
whole boat.

But!!!!!!! There is no guarantee that you
will get out fishing on a group charter.
Several things can keep a group charter
from going out. If there are not very
many people in town, it is hard to get a
group together, or if the weather is bad
before the trip, people will not be walking
the dock looking to sign up.

Grouping up with other people can also
be a problem if you want a specific type
of trip (i.e. a ½ day) and everyone else
signed up wants to go all day or vice versa. If you are a little flexible you stand a much better chance. The biggest problem is that
you cannot make a reservation for a group charter. It is strictly a wait and see situation with most groups being completed the
afternoon or evening before the trip. During the busy summer month's group charters are put together very quickly and it is usually
not a problem. In the early spring and late fall it is more difficult. In the off season it is practically impossible.

One way to guarantee your fishing trip is if you go ahead and charter the boat, but ask to have other people put on the trip. That
way, you go ahead and get your boat locked in and are assured going fishing. The down side to that is you may not get the full 6
people. Then you are stuck paying for the boat with a smaller group.

Group charters are the same price as private charters; it's just divided between everyone on the boat. The groups are usually kept
down to 6 people
