Vehicle Details
It was a beautiful morning as we set out from Destin, FL on our 8 Hour Trip (AM) with Windwalker II Charters. May is a prime time for offshore fishing along the Emerald Coast, with warming waters drawing in a variety of gamefish. The weather was on our side too, with some clearing in the afternoon expected. Al and their crew were eager to get lines in the water and see what the day had in store. As soon as we reached our fishing spot, the action started heating up. We deployed a mix of techniques, from deep-sea trolling to jigging with light tackle. It didn't take long before we started hooking into some feisty Little Tunny and Cero Mackerel. The fight was intense as these fish made powerful runs, but the crew kept their cool and landed some impressive catches. The bite remained steady throughout the trip, and we even managed to boat a few Wahoo Fish and King Mackerel. Everyone was thrilled to see these impressive predators come over the gunwale. In between the flurries of activity, we had a chance to take in the great water conditions and enjoy the camaraderie of the group. It was just an all-around fantastic day on the water. If you're looking to experience some of the best offshore fishing Destin, FL has to offer, I highly recommend booking the 8 Hour Trip (AM) with Windwalker II Charters. Whether you're an experienced angler or newer to the sport, our team will make sure you have an unforgettable day on the water. From the rush of fighting hard-charging gamefish to the scenic views and great company, this is a trip you won't want to miss. So what are you waiting for? Book your adventure today and let's go fishing!
What a fantastic day out on the water with Delaney and their crew! We set out from 210 US-98 in Destin, FL this morning for an epic Deep Sea, Jigging, Trolling, and Light Tackle fishing adventure. May is a prime time for offshore action around these parts, and we were eager to see what the Destin waters had in store. The conditions were looking great - partly cloudy skies and good water visibility had us feeling optimistic. As soon as we got the lines in, the fish started firing up. It didn't take long before we hooked into a feisty Wahoo that put up one heck of a fight. Delaney was on it, keeping the drag tight and their technique on point. We landed that beauty and quickly turned our attention to the next target. The King Mackerel were going crazy, hitting our baits hard and giving us some awesome runs. In between the Mackerel, we managed to boat a few nice Red Snapper too - what a diverse and lively bite! The whole trip had an awesome energy. Everyone was engaged, eager to learn, and loving the non-stop action. We covered a lot of water, trying different presentations and depths to put these fish on the line. The camaraderie on board was fantastic, and we shared plenty of laughs between the catches. That's what makes a day like this so special - sure, the fish are the main event, but it's really about the overall experience. Just a group of anglers out on the water, making memories and enjoying the Destin lifestyle. If you're looking to hook into some serious offshore hardware in Destin, Florida, you've got to check out the Windwalker II Charters team. Our Destin Fishing Charters package delivers an unforgettable deep sea adventure, whether you're targeting Wahoo, King Mackerel, Red Snapper, or a mixed bag of hard-fighting pelagics. The bite is hot, the crew is dialed in, and the memories are guaranteed. So what are you waiting for? Book your Destin fishing trip with us today and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime!
It's almost that time of year in Destin, Florida when the pelagic migration begins and the fish start arriving. But don't wait to get your fishing fix - there are plenty of other species to target in the bays and reefs near Destin. Inshore fishing is excellent right now and anglers should be prepared for an exciting time on the water. For anglers looking to hook Trout and Redfish, head to the shallow waters near shore or off piers or jetties. If you’re after Snapper and Amberjack, try heading a bit further out - around 20ft depths - where you can find them actively feeding on smaller baitfish.
Ratings & Reviews Summary

We had a fantastic time and caught a lot of fish. The first mate was excellent!

We caught a lot of fish, but Trigger Fish was out of season, so we had to throw back dozens of them. We were able to keep Red Snapper and other Snapper species. Bonita and Mahi were also caught. We trolled out and back and bottom fished for approximately 3-4 hours of our total trip time in the Gulf. Overall, a fantastic trip. He has a lifetime of experience and will keep you safe while also making your trip enjoyable.

Captain Bernie was extremely friendly and helpful in putting us on the fish. Our fishing guide/rigger did an excellent job of ensuring that we all had a chance to fish while also keeping us safe. I appreciate him working with all of us. Thank you, Captain!

had a great time, and Captain put us on a lot of fish! Mark (deckhand) worked his tail off handling 6-8 of us at once. It was a great experience!
