Activity Information:     

Activity Description
Come board the 75 ft Gulf Queen for a 12 hour all day fishing trip!

These trips go up to 45 miles offshore, and it typically takes between 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours to get to the fishing grounds, so you can expect approximately 4-6 hours of  fishing!

The typical catch on our 12 hour trip includes:

  • Mangrove and Red Snapper
  • Large Grouper
  • Sea Bass
  • An occasional kingfish, shark, cobia, mahi or amberjack
Frozen herring and squid (included) are the preferred baits on the 12 hour trip, although some fisherman may choose to bring live bait along as well (bait wells are available at the bait house right next to our dock, and live bait can either be bought or caught right at the dock!).

NOTE TO FIRST-TIMERS:  On the 12 hour trips, we sometimes venture out into much deeper waters than our other trips.  In these deeper waters, there are not as many smaller snapper and grunts, so many times there are fewer (but larger) fish caught.  This is not like the typical all day trip where lots of smaller fish are caught while waiting for a few groupers!  Grouper are among the toughest fish to fool and get to the boat, but our crew will be happy to help you give it your best shot!

The deckhand will keep your catch iced down for you on a numbered stringer, and when you arrive back at the dock he will be happy to clean your fish for you for a small fee.
