Karl, thanks for choosing me and Double Time Charters! You guys were sure easy to have a good time with, hope all the “kids” (young adults) had fun as well. Enjoy the fish and I hope to see you all again in the future!
Thank you for choosing ME, Janette! It’s always a pleasure taking you fishing, I think Joe had a good time and I know Rudy did! Enjoy the fish and check back in to the Destin Fishing Rodeo to see if Rudy’s big Lane Snapper wins!
The water was choppy and two of my mates got a little sea sick. It set us back a little bit but I have to hand it Captain Tim. He took that into consideration and knew just how to address it. The first few spots we tried were taken over by trigger fish. Then we struck gold… Over 30 red vermillion snappers! We ate well that evening. Thanks again Captain Tim for your patience…
Captain Tim was very upfront with us when we had bad weather the day of our fishing charter. Not only did we have storms, but the wind and gulf waters were too rough for deep sea fishing. Even though other charters had canceled for the day, he was willing to take us trolling near the shore and play it by ear. We ended up trolling for about 3 hours (we booked a 5 hour trip) and at that point Captain Tim said that the weather has cleared enough to try deep sea fishing. Unfortunately, 2 out of 4 in our group had already become sea sick due to our inexperience with being on boats and the rough waters. After a few minutes of debating, we decided to call it a day.
We ended up going home with 18 spanish mackerel which Captain Tim fileted, de-boned and de-veined on the dock. Our count would be 20 but we lost 2 of them to a couple of sneaky dolphins.
Overall we had an amazing first time fishing with Captain Tim- he taught us to drop and set the lure and watch the rod for a bite. He is incredibly knowledgeable about all things fish and water and went above and beyond to answer our questions and teach us how to fish.
By the end of those 3 hours, we were fishing on our own even though we had little to NO prior fishing experience.
We truly enjoyed our adventure even though it wasn’t what we expected. We’ll definitely be back next year!

Captain Tim took our crew of 6 out for a 5 hour trip. With live bait not being available to buy, our first task was to head offshore a short distance to catch our live bait fish. While it took a while, we all had fun taking our turns at jigging off the bottom and reeled in enough to then head out to deeper water. While we started off slow and struggled to avoid sharks, we finally found a couple of good spots. Tim stayed out longer than planned to make sure everyone in our group reeled in at least one nice sized fish. It was a great trip overall and we really appreciated the extra time and effort from Captain Tim to make our trip a success. This was our second trip with Double Time Charters and we would highly recommend them for a great fishing experience.
