Highlights
  • Heron Harbor - On your private charter, we’ll venture out to the Deep Sea Nearshore waters on the Gulf of Mexico for a 4, 5 or 6 hour trip to target a wide range of species to include Snapper, Grouper, Mahi, Mackerel, Tuna, Cobia and Sharks. We’re typically fishing well within sight of land anywhere between 2 - 9 miles offshore, but don’t think for a moment this has an impact on the quality or the quantity of the fish you’ll catch! The coastal waters off of Destin quickly reach depths in excess of 100 feet within the first few miles. Due to this unique coastal reef geography, fish of all shapes and sizes call these waters home. This allows minimal travel times to your fishing spots thus increasing your actual time fishing. While out on the boat you’ll often see dolphins, sea turtles and other marine life. Our family-friendly guides will coach you to success on catching the fish of your dreams and make sure everyone has a fun time fishing. Once your trip is over we will clean, filet, bag and ice your catch. You then can take your filets home with you or to one of the highly recommended restaurants by our marina who will prepare your catch any way you’d like it along with all the tasty sides.

Awesome Fishing Trip and Amazing Captains! - We had 2 amazing days with Captain Chuck! Thursday and Friday! We caught lots of fish on Thursday, but could only keep the ones that were allowed. So we came back on Friday with Captain Chuck and captain Jacob and brought home some Red Snapper, a special type of Grouper that was legal and another type of snapper. We had so much fun!! Even our 80 year old mom enjoyed the trip- she fished the entire 6 hours! Chuck and Jacob were so kind and took us to several of their special fishing spots!! We highly recommend this awesome company! LW was so nice when we booked and they have awesome communication!! We will definitely be back!!!

Great trip with great guide - Great trip, guide and deck hand were very personable and entertaining. We caught plenty of fish but it is not always about the catch. It is about making enjoying the experience and making new friends.. And that is exactly what we got with ICX Capt. Chuck. Definitely recommend and we will be back to fish with ICX again.
