Fishing with Kids - A Child Friendly Fishing Charter
Fishing with kids is a specially designed charter that allows children to experience salt water fishing like only they can. Fishing is the focus but kids can also be kids and play with the bait (a crowd pleaser), check out dolphins and stingrays, and enjoy a couple of hours out on the water. The captain is there to guide and instruct and will educate the children on fish species, tackle, and rigging. Parents are encouraged to participate and enjoy some quality time out on the water together. Trips are catch and release but the photos and memories last a life time.

- US Coast Guard approved & insured Captain
- Catch what is biting
- Captain keeps kids engaged for a fun day on the water

Additional information

- All trips are inshore fishing trips on calm waters that are kid friendly.
- Customers will be fishing a 22 foot Cape Horn Center Console Boat.
- The captain will fillet and bag any fish that the customer catches on the trip. Please tip appropriately for all the hard work that is done on the trip.
- There are no guarantees that the customer will catch the target species, but the captain has a very high success rate in finding and catching certain species.
- Glass bottles or items are prohibited on the boat.
- The boat will stay close to shore and avoid any heavy wake areas.
- What you can expect to catch (depending on the season) is red fish, speckled trout, and sheepshead.
- If it rains, charters will still go out fishing. However, if there is excessive fog, wind, or lightning, the trip will not go. Trips are always decided based on the captain's discretion. Trip will either reschedule or be refunded to the customer.

Great for small kids!

Captain Joe was very helpful and put on us on fish for kids to catch. Our kids are 4 & 7 years old and 2 hour trip was perfect. Also, we had a dolphlin visit within a few yards of boat. Joe did everything and let us relax while kids & dad were fishing.

Great experience!

Whenever you go out fishing you never know how it’s gonna go. Lucky for us capt.Joe put us on the fish right away. My 8 year old had a 15 lb redfish on the line on the first cast and it only got better from there. Capt.Joe was very nice and was really good with helping the kids learn how to reel in and net big fish, he even got them to hold them which I was shocked by. We ended up catching 8 really good sized fish. The largest being about 40+ lbs which was almost as big as the boy reeling it in! We all had a great vacation in Destin but this will be the memory that lasts for sure. I would definitely recommend this trip!

The guide never even asked us our names. Never introduced himself or tried to make conversation. We didn’t really catch any fish which is not his fault at all. But at least try and make it fun for the kids even if they are not catching fish. He had no people skills at all. If your going to take kids out to fish at least know how to make it fun for them. Catching fish or not catching fish.

Not bad

It was ok but could’ve been a little more enthusiastic being a “kid” geared trip. My son had fun but being we’re from West Texas we don’t get to do a lot of fishing in the ocean and we didn’t feel like the guide cared too much that we were there or didn’t care too much to help us out or giving us any guidance. He barely spoke to us and the boat was extremely small, even for 5 people. If the water was any more rough it would’ve been a lot worse getting around I feel like. Like I said, it was an ok trip but not one id recommend to anyone and not one id book again.
