Default Destin fishing?

Takin the family to destin next week and was wondering if anyone ever fished the surf or bank fished there? Is it any good and what kinda fish y'all catch? I'm not interested in wasting money on a offshore charter just looking for something to pass a little time.

get some wire leaders and silver spoon. catch some Spanish. That's the only thing I've ever had luck catching consistently. I've caught reds and trout before on normal stuff before but not many

I always catch the worlds largest lady fish there. They jump out the water like marlin lol. If you can get out there early you can see the birds easing down the bank and the spanish schooling.

Sand fleas on the bottom can catch pompano at times, most the times we just caught spanish mackerel and ladyfish from the beach, BUT you can gig some flounder at night

its fun hanging out on the piers though, they flip out over some king mackerel

Beach side, but you catch enough flounder here to not worry about them there

Would be fun, you can catch crabs with a net at night on the bayside too and maybe give the kids a net to chase after those sand crabs at night, always good times
