Any place to catch these in the Gulf? What about near Destin, FL? If so, where? And can I get there with a pontoon? Thanks.

The charters go out on 8-10 hour trips and find and follow the shrimp boats to get them.

We went to Venice La last year with Paradise outfitters and went out 80 miles to the offshore rigs and caught yellow fin tuna all day long. I don't think your pontoon will make that trip.
