Captain Taylor and his first mate took us on a four hour trip and it was what every charter should be. Clean accommodations and friendly service. After we arrived at our first spot we immediately began catching fish. And continued catching fish until it was time to head back. I will book another trip with Captain Taylor again.

We were only able to book a 4 hour trip, but Taylor was still able to find us enough fish to fill up our cooler, and Ian did an excellent job keeping all the lines baited, and making sure we had a good time. We had a blast. The Hound Dog has all the equipment you need to get out there and find whatever you’re looking to catch and the air conditioned cabin will keep you nice and cool while you’re heading to the next stop or waiting on your next bite!

The boat and the equipment were well maintained. The deck hand, Ian, was friendly and professional, and so was Captain Taylor.  We caught our limit of red snapper as well as lots of vermilion and mangrove snapper.  It was a fantastic trip. They’re very kid friendly too.

Capt. Chip was our guide for the morning and it was a stunning day. Seas laid down a bit so we ran a few miles out to the reef. Caught a nice Jack and a Red Snapper. Put em back, so they’re still there for you. A few small grouper too.
Then headed along beach to troll for Mackerel. Had to reel them in fast because the dolphins kept stealing them once hooked.
I’ve been on several charters and can say Chip was the friendliest of the bunch. Was great with the kids and pleasant to provide guidance and local knowledge.
Will be back again for Tarpon soon. 👍😀☀️🎣🐟

We took our family (3 boys ages 10, 11,13) fishing for snapper and had a great time. Capt. Taylor was able to put us right on the fish and did an excellent job of making the most of our time on the water. His mate, Ian was patient with the kids and tangled lines! We had a great time and will definitely book with them again when we go out of Destin.
