Fishing Charters

We offer private fishing charters. Single trips or multi-day. What ever you are looking for from kids fishing trips to 4,5,6,8,10 and 12 hour offshore trips we have you covered! We also offer dolphin cruises and sunset cruises! Come join us and enjoy the day on the Gulf reeling in the big ones or just taking a sunset or dolphin cruise.

Your fish cooked when you walk of the boat!

You can have your fish cooked straight of the filet station!! The local restaurant I pickup at will cook your fish as soon as I clean them for you. You just walk in and let them know you want to be seated and have your catch cooked. They will take good care of you. You can have it grilled, blacked, or fried with the sides.

Sunset cruises

Come join us to watch the sunset. Have a cocktail if you choose and relax while the sun vanishes into the water!

Dolphin tours

Join us for a dolphin tour and watch them from our boat while you relax and take in the scenery!

Great Guy to fish with. Nice, fast boat. Knows where the bait is and where the fish are. Certainly goes above and beyond and cares if you catch fish. Had a double on big Ole, hard fighting Black fin Tuna. We were slotted for 6 hours but we got out on water early and came back late. Had a blast and will be back.

Great day of fishing! Great Captain. Very knowledgable. We have been on a lot charter trips and this was the best experience yet. Can’t wait for the next trip!
Matt Hamilton | Customer reviews

Captain Chip was great! We had a great time on what seemed like a quick 4 hour offshore trip. He put us directly on top of the Red Snapper with ridiculous pinpoint accuracy! We had our limit in easily 30 minutes. Great boat, with good equipment. This was our first “deep sea” fishing trip, and thanks to Chip and the experience he gave us it will now be a staple of our trips down here! Can’t wait for the next time!!!

If you’re looking for a great fishing charter, I highly recommend Code Blue Fishing Charters! We went out with Chip and Trey on Monday and had the absolute best time! Caught our limit and the BIG ONE truly did get away. Book with Chip. You won’t regret it!

April Dokianos: Customer

Would definitely recommend to everyone it was the best chartered trip I had ever been on. He showed my son a very good time as well and he normally doesn’t even enjoy fishing but that has changed thanks to the captain Chip Sanders was very good dude and really put the extra effort in to insure you have fun. Thanks again will definitely be back.

We found Chip through a Destin fishing FB group & everyone raved about him!! Chip is very easy to get ahold of. After speaking with him, we booked him months in advance to ensure we could get a spot with him during red snapper season- luckily we were able to go out the last day of the season. Chip is very passionate about his career, super knowledgeable, & respectful. He put us right on the snapper (maxed out for the day), hooked a grouper, & caught a baby tiger shark. We truly had the best time, & already talking about going back out with him next year. Chip will not disappoint
