Bill Fish Fishing, Destin, Florida (east of Pensacola)
When it comes to Florida saltwater fishing, a quick check of the record books keeps revealing one name above all others — Destin. Located east of Pensacola on the state's famed Emerald Coast, this thriving fishing village is home to spectacular deep sea fishing, consistent bay fishing and unbeatable offshore sport fishing. Depending on the time of year and the bite, an experienced charter boat captain can always be found to improve the holidaying fisherman’s odds, whether it’s patrolling the depths for amberjack, red snapper or grouper, trolling the shallows for red fish and speckled trout, or going offshore after the ultimate thrill — big-game bill fish that cruise the warm Gulf waters.
The Destin fleet of charter boats is widely acknowledged to tag and release more bill fish than any other Gulf Coast fleet, making it the logical place to begin your pursuit of swordfish, sailfish, white marlin or even the incomparable blue marlin (Destin holds the Gulf record for blue marlin caught on hook and line with a 980 lb. monster). Destin-area sport fishing enthusiasts aren't limited to bill fish though. Some of the state's best dolphin (also called mahi mahi or dorado), tuna and wahoo fishing can also be found right here. Of all the outstanding places to fish in Florida, the argument can easily be made that Destin deserves top bill.
Go to Goin’6 to hook a holiday of a lifetime, combined with comfortable room design and low cost accommodation. Europe has so much to offer the intrepid fisherman, but can it compare with the sheer abundance of choice and coastline on offer across the water? There’s only one way to find out about reel adventure and that’s with Motel 6.
