We have been fishing out of Destin for about 10 years. Our first trip with 100 Proof was in 2020 and we just had our second trip this past week. Everything about the trip is perfect, from the boat to the fishing and the friendliness of the crew. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. We will definitely continue to use them for our future trips.
June 18, 2021
had a blast great group of people to finish with. the trip was better than expected. will be doing it again soon
June 17, 2021
Had a great trip with these guys! Our bait couldn’t hit the bottom before we had bites. We will be booking again.
June 7, 2021
Had the best time May 16 and 17. Again Allen, Ben and Robert put us on the Big fish. Great memories! We had such a good time we booked another trip for October! This time we plan on fishing for 3 days with this crew and we are going to do an overnight! I can't wait to see the Monsters we pull out of the ocean!

Absolutely recommend 100 Proof Charters. The entire crew is very responsive and extremely knowledgeable. Hands down the greatest experience I've ever had. These people are ones I'd call friends for a life time. It's not about the money which was worth every penny but about the experience and friendships built with new people. Words honestly can't describe how amazing our 12 hour trip was. We are currently planning a 3 day trip it was that great. Thanks to Rachel, Allen, and Robert.

We fished with 100 Proof July 24th, we had 6 children & 5 adults it was probably the best charter we have been on. With that many people fishing together it gets hectic really fast. There were times we had 6 fish at a time & this crew did not miss a beat & kept things running smoothly. The action was non stop the entire time we fished. Captain &. Crew were all great with kids & every one limited out on red Snapper plus several nice grouper. I highly recommend this charter, I will definitely be fishing with them again!
July 28, 2019
Captains and crew were great! There were seven of us and they made sure we were all taken care of. Fishing was excellent. Even caught a shark! Best day we have had. Would recommend this Charter to anyone!!!!!
July 19, 2019
The crew and Captain are always top notch. They go out of their way to make sure you are catching fish and having a good time. I would recommend this boat any day of the week!! we have been fishing with them since they started and have never been disappointed!! Some of Destins finest people!! You can't go wrong with the 100 Proof and Captain Allen. and Captain/ Mate Ben. Book your trip today!!
July 2, 2019
these guys are very professional they catch fish they treat you well they treat you like family so if you're looking to book a charter you can't go wrong booking on this boat. they have cold AC plenty of room clean bathrooms. bring your drinks in your A Game & fish on!
June 28, 2019
Great crew. Capt. Ben puts you on the fish and Robert and Brent keep the hooks baited and keepers in the ice. We had a terrific day in the Gulf.
April 28, 2019
Perfect Day! Caught a Shark, had fun, amazing Captain, (Ben) , fantastic help from Chris.... beautiful clean boat... BOOK THIS BOAT !!! The absolute best charter we have experienced ( I got bored reading all the reviews about all the fish so I'm going to leave it alone !)-every single review says the same thing about the fish ! ?The Captain will find them ! You WILL catch what you came for!!!
January 9, 2019
Great trip!! The Captain and mate are first class and got us on the fish! Highly recommend 100 PROOF CHARTERS!!
November 1, 2018
Been fishing for 25 years. I can assure you this Captain knows his business!! Thanks Captain Allen. Robert and Ben are great deck hands. Probably the best I've ever fished with. Thanks Guys. I'll be back soon!!!
October 29, 2018
We had an excellent time on 100 proof!! Very nice boat and team! Captain Allen put us right on top of the fish all day and Robert was Johnny-on-the-spot on the deck! Deckhands don’t get much better than Robert! He was on the ball all day long handling the equipment, bait and helping us less-experiences ladies. We will be using them again in the future and I highly recommend them
October 20, 2018
Captain Ben and Robert were awesome. Been on many fishing trips these guys are by far the best and most professional! If your in Destin swing by and use them
August 26, 2018
When shopping for a charter to go fishing with the kids I had to look for the best chance of getting them on fish as fast possible, with that said these guys know their stuff and had us on fish in no time. Red Snapper limit within minutes and then we were off to the next spot to try all other varieties of fishing. The highlight of the trip was the kids smile and astonishment when seeing how big the fish were. One more thing..... when we hit our limit we didn’t stop and turn around we actually went shark fishing with great success. You get what you pay for so if you looking call these guys first. Thank you Ben and Robert. We will come again.
July 8, 2018
If you are in Destin & want to fish I highly recommend 100 Proof. I had a great trip on the 100 Proof with Ben & Robert. They both did an awesome job of putting me on sharks (many shots at fish). Managed to turn in a Grand Slam (Blacktip, Bull & Tiger). This is the second trip I've had with Ben. And thanks to Rachel for setting up my Shark Gand Slam request. I can't wait to set up another trip with y'all.
July 6, 2018
Fishing was awesome. Capt & deck hand were excellent. These guys know how to put a great trip together.

Very great trip! Captain Allen put us on the fish we were after and Robert hooked us up on the deck. Best thing I've done on vacation.

We have taken charter trips with Ben for 7 years and we have enjoyed every fishing trip. Their team is committed to putting you on the fish and making sure you have a great time. Best fishing charter team out there!
April 11, 2017
Fantastic day of fishing with our dad and his grandsons! 3 generations and Captain Ben and Robert made sure we all got on fish! Hooking amberjack, and an occasional shark, was the highlight of our vacation and made memories for a lifetime! Thank you Capt. Ben and Robert!
March 25, 2017
Having the privilege to go fishing on this boat was awesome and definitely unforgettable! Top notch Captain's and crew. The knowledge and expertise was perfect, these guy's will definitely make your trip a fun and and unforgettable one ! My family and I are already looking forward to the next time we go fishing on the 100 Proof. Thanks again for my family to the guys on the 100 proof!
June 19, 2016
We had the time of our life!! We told Ben and Wayne we wanted to do some shark fishing, they took us to do some shark fishing!! Lol They were great with our kids, let us catch some amberjack and red snapper too, taught us about the ramora and let the kids play with their sweet puppy! Seriously, we could not have had a better time!! These guys are great!! We WILL be seeing them again and do highly recommend them!!
May 4, 2016
We used them for our son's stingray trip. Our guide Royce was amazing and Rachel is great. I give them a thumbs up, we will definitely use them again!!!
August 1, 2015
Thank You Captain Ben and Jason we had a great time. Caught 3 sharks had others on, kept one and just had fillets for lunch. Scott, Ronda, Ryan and Kyle.
July 3, 2015
Best thing we've done in Destin by far!!!! Went out today with Cpt. Judah on Stelluna & loved every minute of it! 4 sharks, 1 king mackerel & 2 bonita made for an awesome time! Cpt. Judah was very knowledgable & easy going. We plan to come back & will definitely use him again, as well as send all friends & family his way! Thanks again for a memorable day!!

Greatest saltwater guides ever . 2 huge sharks one 8ft and one 15 ft . We fought the sharks the whole trip or would have caught more . Great guys to fish with. Had a blast. Still sore ! Lost my man card today .... But that tiger shark earned it! Thanks so much Ben and chandler !
July 24, 2014
We had an amazing time with Cpt. Ben. It was a last minute decision to take a private charter right after getting off of a party boat charter. We had such an amazing time when we got off we rebooked another trip for the following day. He knew exactly where to go for the specific fish we wanted to catch. We're going back to GA with 3 coolers FULL! Thanks a million Cpt Ben! Until next trip!

June 14, 2022 our group of six went on a morning fishing trip with CPT. Allen and First Mate, Robert. I've been on a few charters and our time and... read more experiences spent on the 100 Proof Charter has been the best by far. CPT Allen's years of experience on the waters was instrumental in putting our crew on top of the fish. It was then we had to use our limited ability and expertise to bring them up. First Mate Robert's initial instruction and coaching throughout was key in our crew catching all that we did. I appreciated Robert's professionalism and integrity along with his humor which created a relaxing environment. Without a doubt I'll will be booking with them in the future.

We really enjoyed renewing our relationship with Captains Allen Staples and Ben O'Connor, First Mate Robert and meeting Reese (july22, 2021). These men fully understand that they are in... read more the "Entertainment business" and they are Awesome entertainers and gracious hosts. Based on our relationship with 100 Proof Charters, our family has concluded together that "if we are fishing from the Destin Harbor Walk Marina, we will only travel into the Gulf of Mexico with the captains and crew of the 100 Proof Charters"!
Our family prefers an 8 hour trip so we will not be rushed and can have a good time with these incredible professionals. They care enough to do all they can to assist our 8 year granddaughter and our 16 year old grandson catch fish and have fun with their mom, dad and grandparents (Ole Folks). Good luck at Ole Miss, Reese. NOTE: The captain and the crew CANNOT GURANTEE a catch, but they will do everything in their power to try to make it happen.
Thank you Allen, Ben, Robert and Reese. We appreciated the bountiful catch and fellowship in the incredible Gulf of Mexico with you all.
