Great Trip!!!

Destin
★★★★★
GREAT trip. Cap’n put us on the snapper and we caught our limit of 12 in a half day trip! First Mate was for real, working his butt off keeping lines tight and baited. We caught our share of vermillion snapper and even a Atlantic Sharpnose. Which we have just grilled and inhaled. All in all a perfect trip, will do it again.

Love the Water!

We booked a 1/2 day trip with iOutdoor through the website, easy, quick and ended up being the right thing to do. The guys put us on the fish right away and had us reeling in fish consistently. Overall a great day experience, this was our first time. The boat and equipment were great, we will be booking again on our next trip.

F.A.Q.

Can I bring luggage on the charter?2018-07-03T12:06:32+00:00

No, but in almost all cases the captain can help you store the luggage while you are out fishing. Please confirm with captain when you talk, how many you will have.

How will I recognize the charter boat?2018-05-21T13:40:22+00:00

Our charter boats are labeled with iOutdoor logos, you will also have the captain's cell phone on your itinerary if you can't find the boat. You will always generally want to meet down by the boat ramps unless otherwise told by captain.

Do you offer Cruise Ship Pick Up from Ports?2020-02-05T17:33:51+00:00

The most affordable way to get to our Florida Fishing destinations and trips is by Uber or Lyft from cruise ship ports. We do offer Cruise Ship Pick Ups from South Florida ports but it will be an additional cost for you.

How long does it take before we start fishing?2018-05-21T13:41:11+00:00

The drive takes different times for different locations and styles of charters. Most inshore and freshwater charters take a 5 to 15 minute boat ride before starting to fish. The offshore charters are ones that can vary based on weather and species of fish the captain is fishing for. It could be 15 minutes, but up to 45 minutes. Again refer to your captain on his call with you and he can provide a detailed plan.

If a hurricane or tropical storm threatens to spoil your fishing trip, we promise to secure full refunds for customers with prepaid charters.

It depends on the customer and type of charter. If passengers wish to take a break, we can stop at scenic areas to stop take pictures, use restrooms or get a bite to eat when available. The charter time is yours, you book for 6 hours and want to fish for three hours and sightsee for 3 hours, that's okay with us. We do ask that you communicate that with the captain, they are fishing captains and focused on catching you fish, so that's what they do unless you advise otherwise.

In layers is best, but fishing is casual. A sundress for ladies with bikini underneath is not uncommon.
