There's a fish with your name on it in Destin and Catching Memories will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Brian knows them forwards and back.
These waters are known for Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Lane Snapper, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Wahoo, and more – with any luck, it won't be long before "Fish on!" On these trips, it’s common to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Capt. Brian will bring you aboard a 46' Post sportfishing vessel with room for 6 passengers. License is provided at the cost of the trip. Boat also has outriggers, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures, Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. It's customary to tip the Mate 20% to show your appreciation.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. There will be bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own drinks. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Catching Memories!

Jacob NortonRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat trip
12 Hour Trip on August 17, 2026 • 3 adultsAbsolutely incredible trip. Captain Matt put us on the fish all day, and Mate Bob worked his tail off from start to finish. We ended up with three cobia along with a great box of fish, but honestly the crew made the trip every bit as memorable as the fishing. By the end of the day it felt more like we were fishing with friends than taking a charter. Professional, hardworking, laid-back and just genuinely good people. We had an absolute blast and would book with Catching Memories again without hesitation. One of the highlights of an already incredible vacation. Highly recommend these guys. Will definitely be back
Brandy Brown5.0VerifiedGreat trip 🎣
6 Hour Trip on September 10, 2026 • 4 adultsHad a great time fishing. The captain worked hard on keeping us on fish. The first mate did an awesome job keeping bait on our hooks and taking the fish off quickly. The crew worked hard to get us as many fish as we could. Caught an amberjack, several red snapper, and some mingo’s. Catching the bait fish was a lot of fun also. We did the 8 hour trip. The captain kept in touch on the weather. Great communication. Will defiantly be using them again.
Bryan Kindall5.0VerifiedOur Family had a blast catching tons of fish
8 Hour Trip - 6:00 AM on August 6, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childFamily had a blast catching lots of fish. Captain was awesome and deck hand was wonderful, super patient teaching some of the first time fishing Family members how to fish. He was super helpful with my 8 year old who kept catching the tax collectors and getting broke off. Lol overall Family had a blast and we will be back
Justin Brewer5.0VerifiedWe had a BLAST!!

I highly recommend this charter and these two. This was my first offshore and experience and they have me ready to go again today. Thanks again.
Mark FahyRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAwesome Kids Fishing Experience
Kids only trip Trolling only on July 30, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenWe had a great time with the captain and deckhand on my girls 4 and 6 first time fishing on the ocean. The bed and fan inside came in handy at the end. Will book with them again when back in Destin.
Patrick PayneRepeat angler4.7VerifiedA fun experience!
4 Hour Trip - 7:30 AM on May 12, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childThe boat and crew were fantastic. I had my 11 yr old grandson with me and the reels were hard for him to handle but the crew helped him a lot. Maybe a smaller rod could have been helpful. We caught alot of fish but could only keep 2 due to size restrictions. Overall just the experience was worth the trip.
