Since we are limited for time, we can only run about 20 minutes down the beach of Destin while staying in State Waters. The "Cape Horn 31T" is very fast and comfortable! Bottom Fishing for Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Vermillion Snapper, Lane Snappers, White Snappers, various Groupers (Red and Scamp). Trolling for Blackfin Tuna, King and Spanish Mackeral Great trip if you have small children from 3yrs old to 7yrs old. Please note, with 5 - 6 passengers, we need more time (such as 5hrs. - 6hrs.).

Your Cape Horn 31T trip starts at the docks in the Harborwalk Village of Destin. Upon arrival you will meet with your captain or one of our associates. If your charter begins at 7am (for example) that is when your charter boat will set off from the docks. The charter service starts with a cruise through the Destin Harbor and out into the Destin Pass. After reaching the end of the Destin Pass we will set up to begin catching our Live Bait. This usually takes 30 mins (give or take) to catch enough Live Bait to fish with during your fishing trip. After we have enough Live Bait we head out into the Gulf of Mexico to begin catching reef fish. It all depends on how the fish are biting that day but we will either stay in one area for the rest of your trip or we will move to another fishing spot. After a few hours of fishing (depending on your hourly trip) we will then head back to the docks. This will usually be a 30-45 minutes ride back (depending on your hourly trip) to the docks at the Destin Harbor. During this time you and your friends can crack open a cold one or relax on the quick trip back to the docks. Immediately after arriving at the docks your captain will pin up your fish on the fishing board. You and your friends and family can then take a group photo to help remember this special day. After the photos your captain will clean and dress all your fish in no time. You have the option to give your fresh caught fish to most (if not all) restaurants on the Destin Harbor. They will cook up your fish with one of their restaurant dishes for you. You can’t beat this! This is a perfect way to top off the evening from a great time on the water!
