Corporate Fishing Charters

Aboard the Destination we have a lot of experience with corporate fishing charters. We have carried groups from power companies, soda companies, tire manufacturers, electronics sales, heavy equipment sales, auto body repair, ac and heat sales ,and many, many more. There is no better way to improve moral at work than to spend some time together relaxing and having fun. We offer trips from as few as 4 hours to all day adventures, and we’d be happy to help plan a deep sea fishing charter that you could all enjoy. So leave the stress of work behind and make plans to spend some time with us catching a few fish aboard a fantastic boat designed inside and out for some premium charter fishing!

The Destination was built for this:

The Destination is one of the larger boats in the Destin fleet. She is 55′ long and 19″ wide and USCG approved to carry 27 passengers. The back deck is designed to open and clutter free so that you can move around freely even with a lot of passengers aboard. The integrated fish and ice boxes not only keep your catch and drinks cold, but they also serve as great, shaded seating.

The main cabin is designed to handle large groups easily. We have plenty of seating, plenty of air conditioning, directv and xm radio. As you move forward you will find a full bathroom, that is exceptionally clean and bunks to sleep up to 10.

What we provide:

We can provide anything that your group may need. We always provide the fishing license, tackle, etc… that you’ll need to fish. Additionally, we can set up catering and provide drinks so you don’t have to worry about a thing. Just show up, step aboard and have fun!

Big Destin Amberjacks

What is an Amberjack

As the name implies, the amberjack is a member of the jack species. These fish are very good to eat, and you can find them on most all of the seafood menus in town. They can grow quite large with 40+ pound fish caught regularly and 70+ pound fish caught on occasion. Amberjack are world renowned for their fight and can easily embarrass the toughest of fishermen. So join us aboard the charter boat Destination to experience Destin’s Spring Amberjack Season for yourself. Find out more at http://www.charterboatdestination.com

The Legalities of Amberjack Fishing

After having almost no amberjack season for the last couple of years, we are really excited about the upcoming spring season. The entire month of May anglers will be allowed 1 fish per person with a minimum size limit of 34 inches. The spring season will close on June 1st and a fall season will begin on August 1st and run thru October 31st(hopefully). We recommend at least an 8 hour trip to target amberjack. Of course trips of 10 or 12 hours will often result in larger and more plentiful fish.

Spring Fishing In Destin Florida!

It is definitely spring in Destin, Florida, and it’s the best time to be fishing.

As April rolls in, and the weather warms in Destin, Florida, families flock to the Gulf coast for spring break, and to take advantage of one of the best times of the year to catch a wide variety of fish on the Gulf coast, especially aboard the Charter Boat Destination.

Currently, this spring here in Destin, Florida, cobia, kings and blackfin tuna are running just offshore, and we are catching vermilion and white snapper, and A LOT of amberjack!

Spring is one of the best times to visit Destin, Florida. In April the water is warm, the sun is shining, the temperature is comfortable, and the bite is strong.

The December Fishing Report

Hello Anglers, it’s time for our December fishing Report!

The end of the year is a laid-back quiet time here in Destin. Life slows down just a little as the tourist crowds drift away, the hustle and bustle of the holidays subside, and the Snowbirds arrive.

“The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.” -John Buchan

As you probably know, our December weather can be unpredictable. Fortunately, this month we were graced with mild weather, for the most part. A couple of cold fronts rolled through and churned up the water, which kept us from fishing…but only for a few days.

This month aboard the Charter Boat Destination, Anglers of all ages brought in good drops of Triggerfish, vermilion snapper, red snapper, amberjack and grouper. We had many laughs, and we made a lot of memories.<

As 2014 comes to a close, and we reflect on another fun (and productive) year of fishing the Gulf waters, we are very thankful to each one of you for your loyalty and support. We hope you had an amazing experience aboard the Charter Boat Destination in 2014, and we hope to see you again (or for the first time) in the new year.

Warm wishes for a happy and healthy 2015.

Edging forward,

Capt. Stan
