Great time fishing
6-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing on October 21, 20254 adults
was a little discouraged at first because all other charter boats were loaded and leaving as we stood on dock and waited for staff to let us aboard. However, after we got on boat and went to fishing spot, things were great. Captain would tell us how far off the bottom the fish were and we caught tons of fish, several keepers! A few times dolphins would show up and fish would leave so we would go to another spot. My two granddaughters had a blast and crew was attentive and helped get fish off hooks and put keepers on ice. Will definitely be back for this charter next year! Great time!

Bodacious day on the water!
6-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared on July 6, 20252 adults
If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing trip, look no further than Jody Family Adventures! We caught so many fish we lost count—and it wasn’t by luck. “Scuba Steve,” Moose, and the legendary Captain Aaron know exactly where the fish are biting and don’t waste a second on anything that’s not hot. Their gear? Top-notch. Everything was in excellent condition, making it smooth and easy to reel in fish after fish. These guys are true pros, and they’ve got the personalities to match—fun, friendly, and totally dialed in. Oh, and let’s not forget their sexy regular, Sean… talk about easy on the eyes. A little bonus to an already fantastic adventure. 😏 Whether you’re new to fishing or a seasoned angler, Jody Family Adventures delivers the kind of day that makes memories—and fills coolers. 🎣🔥 10/10 would fish again!

5-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared on August 31, 20254 adults
This was our first fishing trip with my 2 teenage sons & we were debating between a party fishing boat or private charter & so happy to have chosen this one!!! The crew was lively, helpful, & overall just grandtastic! It was a 3 in 1 deal and who knew that we would see lots of dolphins (front of the boat) swimming with us & on the way in, sit up top & watch the sunset! They cleaned our fish & we ate them that night! So delicious! I would definitely recommend a must do in Destin & we will definitely do this every year! Thank you so much Sweet Jody!!!

Best way to get out on the Gulf affordably
6-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared on August 22, 20251 adult
Went out with Sweet Jody and got 6 snappers, 1 scamp grouper, 4-5 triggerfish, 2 squirrel fish, and got broke off by something pretty big at the side of the boat. Great crew and an air conditioned room with toilets and available snacks/drinks at a reasonable price. Captain and the deckhands made everyone laugh and feel at home while making sure to prioritize safety on the water and respect for the fellow anglers. 6 hours of Deep Sea Fishing for 130$ well worth it and there was a double rainbow over the marina when I arrived

Good beginner trip
5-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared on June 15, 20252 adults
Crew was helpful. Daughter didnt catch anything until last stop, I asked crew to help her and Stone gave her advice, and helped her land 2 fish on last drop line. Thankful for the help. Saw several Dolphins, which was nice but according to the captain, they scare the fish away so you actually don't want to see dolphins on a fishing trip. Haha. (The young girl working the check in on Sunday June 15th Fathers day was terrible and had zero customer service skills. zero stars for her.)
