The crew; Captain Casey Godwin & First Mate Matt Woods grew up fishing in the emerald coast waters, and Capt. Godwin is a third generation Charter Boat Captain with a 100 ton rating.

The crew serves you with combined experiences totaling near 60 years of fishing in the Gulf waters, from Destin all the way to Costa Rica. DestinSportsFishing.com guides are salt water experts at all types of fishing, but the most common type is bottom fishing for snapper & grouper. They also handle all maintenance on the ship and actually built the live well you see on deck.

As you pull away from the dock early morning, you'll experience the most beautiful sunrise ever seen over the water. As the trip continues, you will likely see dolphins running along the side of the boat in the crystal clear gulf waters.

During the cruise to your first stop of the day, you'll receive verbal instructions on how to handle the fishing gear along with safety tips too ( Most things out here have sharp teeth). Personally, I have been chomped on by some of the areas tastiest fish, but I got the last bite in!)

Once arriving at the Captains first choice of fishing spots (between one & two hours off shore), you will soon be reeling in the big ones. Keep in mind that there are size & quantity limits on all species of fish, so don't get upset when the crew tosses some back. Also, since your crew has combed these waters for a number of years, they will take you to as many of their secret locations possible during your trip to make sure you have a truly ONE OF A KIND experience. Captain Godwin owns around two thousand headings for these spots.
