Our motley crew of 6 had an amazing day on the water with Captain Bernie and First Mate Mark.  From start to finish, the day was perfect.  The boat is fantastic, roomy, good tackle/bait, and a bathroom, a definite plus for us lady anglers.  Capt. Bernie put us on fish at every stop and Mark kept us baited up and told us tales of his decades on the water.  We caught dozens of triggers, most “soul-crushingly” undersized and returned, but fun to catch.  Caught a variety of other bottom species including white snapper, squirrel fish, vermillion snapper, and some beautiful red snappers that we are coming back to get this summer…lol.  We then did a little trolling near shore to finish the day and all six of us got to bring in a spanish mackerel.  So we went home with great memories and a variety of fish to try.  Big thanks to Capt. Bernie and Mark for being so good at what they do.  Will definitely go out with them again and recommend them to others.

Had a great day on Windcharter II with captain Bernie and First mate Mark. Mark was great at constantly baiting our hooks and teaching us techniques to bring in the fish. We caught over 50 fish but couldn’t keep them all due to time of year or size.  Even had a dolphin grab my fish that I was reeling in and take off with it. Thankfully it broke off before breaking the line.  Then the dolphin swam next to use for awhile.  On the way back caught a Bonita trolling.  Good sign since one of the first warm season fish to return like Mahi, tuna etc. Will go out with these guys again if we come back to Destin.

We had a fantastic time with Captain Bernie and his first mate, Mark! From the time we arrived instructions were clear and we were off on our trip! Our first mate helped us with everything from baiting the hooks, teaching us how to reel in the fish, and finally- filleting our loot!  We caught several fish and everyone- even my 69 year old mother- caught fish while trolling. We cut our 5 hours a little bit short due to my 2 boys having a some motion sickness, but everyone had a great experience nonetheless! We would definitely book again with Capt. Bernie and Mark!

Captain and crew were okay.  Nothing great nothing bad… just kind of vanilla.  Happy with the day but might try someone else on the next trip.

When booking a fishing charter it’s always nerve wrecking to find the right crew. Captain Bernie was outstanding and we had an incredible time. He constantly stayed proactive in moving us to good spots when the fish weren’t biting. Needless to say, we had the most fish when we docked compared to other charters (18+ for 6 hours). Whether that was good luck or good skills/experience with the captain we will never know. But for sure will rebook next time we come down here with Captain Bernie!
