Trascorri la giornata con Reel Job Charters e scopri cosa significa pescare a Destin! Avendo accumulato molte ore su queste maree, il Capitano Heath può raccontarti tutto su di esse.
A seconda della stagione e delle condizioni meteorologiche potresti agganciare Redfish, Black drum, Spotted seatrout, Passera, Red snapper, Vermilion snapper, Mangrove snapper, Lane snapper, Cubera snapper, Cernia nera, Red grouper, Scamp grouper, Lampuga (Mahi Mahi), Ricciola, Cobia, Pesce balestra e qualsiasi altra cosa che abbocchi. Durante queste uscite, puoi aspettarti di pescare a vista, pescare a fondo e/o trainare usando attrezzatura leggera o pesante. Il Capitano Heath può anche portarti a pescare alla passera con fiocina, fare snorkeling, rilassarti su un banco di sabbia o fare un giro tra i bar galleggianti.
Reel Job accoglie bambini a bordo, quindi sentiti libero di farne una giornata in famiglia! Se non hai un giubbotto di salvataggio per bambini, assicurati di chiedere se ce n'è uno a bordo. Ricorda anche di portare snack per mantenere alti i livelli di energia!
Sarai il benvenuto a bordo di un Contender 25 Bay center console con spazio per 6 passeggeri. Ha tutto ciò di cui hai bisogno per una giornata produttiva in acqua. Troverai canne, mulinelli e attrezzatura ad aspettarti, oltre alle esche artificiali. Le esche vive sono disponibili, ma assicurati di chiedere informazioni per sapere se dovrai pescarle tu stesso.
Non c'è bisogno di acquistare una licenza di pesca, quindi puoi venire direttamente a bordo senza alcun problema! Tieni presente che alcune specie potrebbero avere regole speciali o stagioni limitate. Il tuo capitano ti aiuterà a seguire le normative mentre peschi.
Non dimenticare di portare occhiali da sole e crema solare (non spray). Ci saranno alcune bevande a disposizione, ma fai sapere al capitano se desideri portare le tue. L'alcol è consentito, assicurati solo di evitare bottiglie di vetro. Ci saranno alcuni snack leggeri inclusi a bordo.
Contatta il Capitano Heath qui sotto e inizia a pianificare la tua uscita di pesca oggi stesso!

spring break snappers! 🐟
6 Hour Trip – Fish/Snorkel/Swim - 9:00 AM on March 19, 2026 • 4 adults
We had a great time with Captain Heath! We caught red snappers, amber jack and a squirrel fish. Heath was great about explaining the day, showing us the technique to use, keeping bait on our hooks. We brought our son and his friend for the experience and they had a blast! We happened to be here duringsome colder weather so i wish i would hae brought a jacket. He gladly let us use his blaket though. He cleaned our fish as well, now jus to tote them back to Minnesota. Definitely recommend!!

Fish and trip of a lifetime!!
8 Hour Trip – Offshore on January 2, 2026 • 6 adults
Captain Heath took myself, my wife, and the boys out December 31st without hesitation!! 22 degrees didn’t stop us from wrangling in a 34 1/2” red grouper that gave me a fight and story that is unparalleled in my experiences of angling fish! Myself, my son, and his 3 closest friends (16 year olds), all caught pigs. One of the boys(Landon) caught a porky snapper that was over 36”!! Heath, thank you for sharing in what amounts to be a cornerstone in these young men’s growth and life! They’ll be talking about this fish story for decades to come! Renita says thank you too even though she was under 5 layers of clothing and a water proof blanket..what a trooper!!!!
Definitely going to mount my Grouper!

Great captain
6 Hour Trip – Offshore on October 18, 2025 • 5 adults
Fishing on the first day was pretty much non-existent, mother nature was just not having it. Five plus foot seas made for a rough trip but the Captain kept a cool head and still tried to make the best of the trip for us. He was so accommodating, he even planned a separate evening trip to make up for the time lost the previous day, talk about a stand up guy! My family and I would definitely recommend you consider a trip aboard with captain Heath.

Nighttime Offshore Action!
Special 4 hour trip for Taylor Harbin on September 5, 2025 • 1 adult
Heath Howle went above and beyond to show me a good time. He accommodated me with a night trip offshore even though it wasn’t in his advertised openings. We left a few minutes before 5pm and by 530 we were fishing around a wake board we found floating that had attracted some dolphin fish and his personal favorite to eat: unicorn/filefish. Taught me how to spear them, which was a great new skill. The bite changed dramatically after the sun went down. Every place was cursed with schools of saltwater catfish. I caught six in a row before finally hooking a different species: Ruby red lips. I told him if I ever have a seaworthy boat I’m naming it the Salty Cat. I just name my freshwater Bass Raider Salty Cat, because why not?
We had a great conversation talking about his business, common obstacles and misconceptions, as well as getting to know each other on a more personal basis. He was very open to trying new things if I had a suggestion. When we met a school of squid he caught one or two (not easy with just a bait net) for our lines. I was deeply touched that he offered to extend our trip because he wanted every chance of us catching a big red snapper or grouper. I’m still sore and stiff and groggy but it was worth it!
A 25’ boat may seem small to be twenty miles offshore but the weather was perfect and I never felt Heath was unsafe or reckless. I’d heartily recommend him to anyone interested in plenty of action as well as some good keepers.

Nighttime Offshore Action!
Special 4 hour trip for Taylor Harbin on September 5, 2025 • 1 adult
Heath Howle went above and beyond to show me a good time. He accommodated me with a night trip offshore even though it wasn’t in his advertised openings. We left a few minutes before 5pm and by 530 we were fishing around a wake board we found floating that had attracted some dolphin fish and his personal favorite to eat: unicorn/filefish. Taught me how to spear them, which was a great new skill. The bite changed dramatically after the sun went down. Every place was cursed with schools of saltwater catfish. I caught six in a row before finally hooking a different species: Ruby red lips. I told him if I ever have a seaworthy boat I’m naming it the Salty Cat. I just name my freshwater Bass Raider Salty Cat, because why not?
We had a great conversation talking about his business, common obstacles and misconceptions, as well as getting to know each other on a more personal basis. He was very open to trying new things if I had a suggestion. When we met a school of squid he caught one or two (not easy with just a bait net) for our lines. I was deeply touched that he offered to extend our trip because he wanted every chance of us catching a big red snapper or grouper. I’m still sore and stiff and groggy but it was worth it!
A 25’ boat may seem small to be twenty miles offshore but the weather was perfect and I never felt Heath was unsafe or reckless. I’d heartily recommend him to anyone interested in plenty of action as well as some good keepers.
