Explore the waters of Destin, one of the nation's most productive fisheries, with Vengeance Charters and land your next trophy! Captain Matthew Pearson has spent years chasing Marlin, and he uses that expertise to show people just how exciting fishing can be.

Not only does he have experience, but your guide also has an excellent boat that will be your ride and fishing platform. Climb aboard his 48' G&S sport fisher equipped with twin 600 HP Fiat engines that make it stable and swift on the waves. She's a smooth fishing machine with plenty of room to accommodate up to 6 people.

On board, you'll find everything you need for a bountiful fishing trip – outriggers to extend your reach, a flybridge to spot fish from afar, and all the fishing equipment you'll need. Because there's a private toilet and plenty of seating, you'll travel in full comfort.

Capt. Matthew offers a variety of angling expeditions, and you make your choice depending on your targeted species. On nearshore trips, you'll focus on fishing for different Grouper and Snapper. On the offshore trips, anything from Marlin and Sailfish to Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel, and Wahoo is in the cards.

While Capt. Matthew is taking you to the secret fish hideouts, the friendly first mate will assist you with everything. He will even clean the catch for you after the trip. For his efforts, tips are much appreciated.

Come with your whole family or gather a group of close angling buddies and find out how Destin came to be called 'the luckiest fishing village.' Vengeance Charters and Capt. Matthew are ready to put you on the bite of your life!

    GREAT TRIP!!!

    4 Hour Trip PM Trolling & Shark on June 22, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had a great trip aboard the Vengeance out of Destin. Captain Matthew and the crew worked hard to keep us on fish and made sure everyone had a good time. We ended up catching 4 red snapper, 6 tuna, and a Spanish mackerel, and brought home a lot of great fillets. The boat was clean, the crew was friendly and helpful, and they did an excellent job cleaning and packaging our catch. Even though we didn't land a shark, the fishing was steady and we came home with plenty of fish for the freezer. If you're looking for a fun fishing trip in Destin with a knowledgeable captain and hardworking crew, I would definitely recommend the Vengeance. We had a great experience and would book again.

    One of the best Charters in Destin

    5 Hour Trip High Season on July 2, 2026 • 2 adults

    Captain Matthew and his brother David did a great job hosting myself and my Dad for a 5 hour trip bottom fishing trip. His two sons Cameron and Adrian did a phenomenal job on the deck giving us pointers, and I honestly found the more directions I listened to from them the more we caught. We caught Spanish Mackerel, Red Snapper, Amberjack, Bonito, and we almost hauled in some Barracuda. Came home with about 14 keepers, hit the limit for red snapper for 2 people, and overall had a memorable experience. Would highly reccomend!

    Sharks all around

    5 Hour Trip High Season - 2:30 PM on June 6, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    we had such a great experience aboard the Vengeance charter woth Captain Matthew and his sons. Going out one of pur goals we had was to catch some shark. It did not tale long before we were all on for the fight of our livea reeling in said sharks!! We also caught lots of bonita tuna, lady fish, and tried to catch some red drum but they werent having it. Catching our own bait was actually a lot of fun as well. We had our two sons who are 9 and 13 with us and the crew did wonderful with them.

    Fishing with Matthew

    5 Hour Trip - 6:30 AM on May 14, 2026 • 5 adults

    Captain Matt made a great call canceling our Tuesday morning trip due to weather. Having my 14 year old son with, the rough seas could have given him a bad taste of the gulf. Luckily, he could get us in on Thursday . I'm so glad he did. We had a blast with him and Christian. Next vacation to Destin, we will definitely be doing another trip

    A great experience!

    5 Hour Trip High Season on July 8, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had a great trip today on the Vengeance! We caught lots of fish and a 350+lb bull shark! The ship is ran by a dad and his two college-age sons. They were friendly, hard working, and very respectful! I would highly recommend this crew! The boat was big, neat, and clean with amazing AC inside, for the occasional breaks we took. Thanks for helping us make some amazing memories today!

    My wife and I had the greatest experience.

    5 Hour Trip High Season on August 5, 2026 • 2 adults

    We caught so many different species of fish from Mackeral, Amber Jack, Benitos even had a Sail Fish at one point that got away. Would reccomend Vengence Charter to anyone that wants to go out and catch fish. Captain and crew were phenominal and had great knowledge.
