Had an excellent morning of fishing with Last Cast Charters. The captain efficiently guided us to abundant catches of mangrove snapper and sea trout. Whenever the bite slowed down, we seamlessly transitioned to a new fishing spot, and the captain ensured our hooks were consistently baited and cast in optimal locations. I highly recommend fishing with them for a top-notch experience.

November 21, 2024

For four years, we've been fishing with Captain Blake, Tanner, and Justin, and they consistently deliver an excellent experience, ensuring we always reel in a good catch. Their expertise extends seamlessly to both young and older kids, making each trip thoroughly enjoyable. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a fantastic bay fishing experience in the Destin or Ft Walton area—truly great folks!

November 21, 2024

The captain was fantastic. While we caught plenty of fish, there were also quite a few shorts, but that's just part of the fishing experience. Overall, it was a good trip, and we have some fillets to take home.

November 21, 2024

Fantastic encounter!! The captain is friendly and exceptionally knowledgeable!

November 21, 2024

Brought our fishing enthusiast daughter, and we all had a fantastic time! Captain Blake was wonderful to work with and ensured our enjoyment throughout. As our trip concluded, my daughter exclaimed, "we will be back," and I wholeheartedly agree!

November 21, 2024

Despite the stormy weather, we had a delightful time. We managed to reel in enough fish for dinner during the two hours of fishing. It was a great experience, and we highly recommend this trip!
