Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

Captain Matthew Champion has been fishing in Destin
since the early 90s and has enjoyed a long
and successful career on his way to founding
Championship Offshore Outfitting and Charters. His
ambition on every trip is to give you something
truly special. Choose from a huge list of
charters, fishing for anything from four hours up
to three days.
Championship Offshore specializes in offshore and
deep sea fishing for both bottom fish and
pelagic species. On shorter trips, you will be
fishing 20-30 miles out for Snappers, Groupers,
Triggerfish, and pelagics like King Mackerel and
even Sailfish.
At the other end of the scale, multi-day trips head
out over 100 miles in search of big game
legends like Blue and White Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna,
Swordfish, and more. You can also target
deep-water delicacies like Amberjack, Scamp
Grouper, Vermillion Snapper, and Tilefish.
However long you come aboard for, you won’t be
disappointed with Capt. Matt’s 42’ Buddy Davis
sportfishing boat. The vessel has masses of space,
but the captain limits groups to six to make
sure everyone gets that five-star fishing
experience. The boat cruises a hair under 30 knots
thanks to her twin Cummins engines which kick out
well over 1,200 HP.
The list of features aboard this beauty can be
fairly summed up as “everything.” Inside, you
will find a full head, galley, saloon, and cabins,
all blissfully air-conditioned. Up on deck,
you have outriggers, downriggers, tube tubes,
livewells, a fighting chair, and more fishing
gear than you will know what to do with.
Luckily, Capt. Matt and his experienced crew are
here to walk you through every step of the
trip. This is a chance to do more than just load up
on fish. Get as stuck in as you want, and
learn from a man who has been doing this for
decades. Head home with great memories, new
skills, and of course, a trunkful of tasty fish.
