Inshore Gulf Fishing with Destin Inshore Guides

5/27/2016

What a great past couple weeks of fishing we have had in the gulf. The weather has been perfect and the gulf has been calm. The bait fish have finally pushed inshore on the beaches and fishing is getting good. We have been catching red snappers, mingo snappers, trigger fish, a variety of porgies, and sharks while bottom fishing. With the baits finally showing up close to the beaches, it has brought in the surface feeding fish. We have been catching spanish mackerel, King mackerel, bonitas, sharks, and a few bonus fish; blackfin tuna and cobia, while trolling and also on our surface line while bottom fishing. Below are some of the recent anglers showing off their catches. Summer is right around the corner and we are booking up. Call now to book your trip. Don't get left at the dock and miss out on this action, come out and catch memories of a lifetime with Destin Inshore Guides.

Great news! The rental ban has been lifted and summer is here. Fishing has been great over the past couple weeks and we are booking up fast. Make sure to call asap to get on the books. Check out below what we have been catching.

Here lately on our inshore bay fishing charters we have been catching a variety of species. The redfish continue to be a target as these fish are a year around fishery for the Destin, Florida area. We are catching there around structure as well as on grass flats. The Spanish mackerel and bluefish bite has been red hot trolling artificial lures, casting jigs, and using live baits when we are able to find good sized ones. With the fin baits starting to show up on the grass flats, the grass flats fishing is starting to happen with speckled trout, redfish, spanish mackerel, and bluefish mixed.

On our inshore gulf fishing charters the bite has been good as well. While trolling we have been targeting king mackerel, spanish mackerel, and amberjacks. Amberjacks are still in season untile June 1st. While bottom fishing we are targeting a mix bag of snappers including white snapper, mingo snapper, and mangrove snappers along with triggerfish and redsnappers.

Red snappers and trigger fish are out of season but still make for great time to perform "CPR" (Catch, Photograph, and Release)

Summer break 2020 is here and we are happy to be fishing every day again. Give us a call to get out fishing while visiting Destin, Fl. this year.
