More Desoto Canyon

So tell me more about the Canyon. How long of a charter does it take to get there?
I'm from the Atlanta area, moving to BlueWaterBay in June; we just aquired a place last month just down from the marina, and we have been coming to the Emerald Coast for 20 plus years.
I've thrown a few crab traps in, cast for shrimp, party boated, half and all day chartered, but I have never gone to the canyon for the Tuna and Blue and Bull.
I know you can be in 90 to 100 feet of water about five miles off shore, how far to the canyon?

I hope to post often, want to learn the area; you know like local watering holes from Val to Niceville to where-ever, good eateries and local services.
I joke about moving to Destin, start a charter boat and call it "The Buzzard". If all goes well the first year, I would buy a second boat just like the first and call it "The Buzzard Too". If all goes well the second year, I'd repeat and buy a third and call it "Tres Boozard". I definately have way too much thought in this!

I'll be down from Sept,16-23, and the only plans so far is to take the Boater Safety course at Eglin so that I can rent their boats. Would like to find out about the Canyon and charters to it!

Thanks Much,
Buzzard
