Destin Inshore Bay Fishing Charters with Destin Inshore Guides

Reel Lucky 2 Cobia Tower Addition

1/13/2017

After a long season of breaking in Reel Lucky 2, winter is upon us. We are taking full advantage of this break and getting her all shined up and improved for next season. We dropped her off to Ugly Duckling Marine today to let Brad do his magic with the welder. This coming season Reel Lucky 2 will be sporting a brand new cobia tower with complete controls allowing us to take charters to the next level. The tower will allow us to spot fish for cobias in the spring as they migrate through our area, tarpons in the summer, and redfish roaming the beaches in the fall and winter months. Check back in a few weeks to see the transformation.

Summer break 2019 is flying by and will soon be coming to an end. We do have openings the next few weeks still so if you plan on fishing during your vacation to Destin, Florida give us a call and we will get your group out on the water..

Here lately on our inshore bay fishing charters we have been catching a variety of species. The redfish bite continues to be good as these fish are a year around fishery for the Destin, Florida area. The mangrove snappers bite has picked up and we are also catching some spanish mackerel, jack crevalle, and bluefish in the mix. We won't really be targeting speckled trout until the weather starts cooling off as there is way more action to be had targeting all the other species in out bay. We do still catch some in the mix while fishing in the bayous and grass flats.

Dont forget the later half of September and early October is prime time to target the Monster Bull Reds here in Destin, Florida. This is the time of the year they prepare to spawn and start feeding heavily, this is also the time of the year that they are on average the thickest from feeding so much to prepare to spawn.

On our inshore gulf fishing charters the bite has been hot as well. While bottom fishing we are catching a mix bag of snappers including white snapper, mingo snapper, and mangrove snappers along with triggerfish, redsnappers, groupers, and amberjacks. The trolling bite has been off and on from day to day catching king mackerel, spanish mackerel, and bonitas. This is the time of the year we will start seeing some sailfish show up. This is not a fish that can really be targeted in our area as they are not very plentiful but they do make an awesome bonus when they surprise us with their presence. The shark bite continues to be good in the gulf as well with bigger sharks including bull sharks, tiget sharks, and dusky sharks being caught out on the reefs while we are still seeing good numbers of blacktips closer to shore.

Triggerfish and Red snappers continue to be out of season for the remainder of the year but still make for great time to perform "CPR" (Catch, Photograph, and Release)

The October Destin Fishing Rodeo is right around the corner. We do book up pretty fast for this event and it takes place the entire month of October. Give us a call and book your Destin Fishing Rodeo Trip as early as possible.
