Gulf Shores, Alabama Family Fishing 

Our Gulf Shores fishing charters work smart and use innovative fishing techniques.  Our Gulf Shores fishing charter company is different than other charters that fish our area.  We use light tackle to fish with on most of our fishing trips.  We believe in having a sustainable Gulf of Mexico fishery for everyone to enjoy.  We love to eat fish as much as you do. We simply want you and your grandchildren to be able to catch these saltwater fish for years to come.  We want you to keep all the fish you want.  However, if you have no plans on consuming them, let us know so we can plan accordingly.

Reasons you should fish with us

• We promote conservation - We want you to catch and keep all the fish you plan on eating.  We are doing our part in maintaining a sustainable fishery.  We promote CPR - Catch, Photograph and Release.   "Keep the best, release the rest" and "Why kill them if your not going to grill them?"
• You will have fun - Those of you who work very hard deserve a day where you can laugh and catch more fish than you can imagine.
• You can relax - Who can't relax when your out on the water fishing.
• No deposit required - We simply take a credit card number to book your trip.  Other charters charge 50% of the price of the trip up front.
• Complimentary fish cleaning - We provide free fish cleaning and bagging.  Other charters deckhands charge you .30 cents a pound to clean your fish.
• We do not fish in rough seas - We will not take you out when sea conditions are not favorable.  If the trip has to be cancelled due to weather, you are not charged.  Other charters try and make you re-book with them instead of giving you your money back.
• We tell you the truth about what to expect - We can't control how the fish bite during certain times of the year.  If the fishing is tough, we will tell you.  If fishing is great, we will tell you that also.  Our goal is to make sure you catch fish. 
• Your family is safe with us - Our charters are all "G" rated and we do not use foul language if you make a mistake or do something incorrectly.
• Your kids can help drive our boat - You are welcome to come upstairs and drive the boat as long as sea conditions permit it.  Be sure to bring your camera and take a picture of your kids driving a big yacht.  Other charters do not allow guests upstairs.     
• Your boat is safe, clean and well maintained - We spend tens of thousands of dollars each year, maintaining our charter fishing boat.  This year, we replaced our entire rear fishing deck with a stronger, lighter space age material that will help us do our part to conserve fuel by reducing the weight of the boat.  We also have painted the entire boat to ensure she is beautiful for many years to come.  We are proud of how she looks and work to keep her in immaculate condition.

Fish You Catch and When You Can Catch Them

The Alabama gulf coast encompasses both offshore sportfishing and inshore species of fish that you can catch year-round on our Charter Boat.

Gulf Shores Summer Vacation Fishing   

Summer Fishing Season - The most popular charter fishing season is during the summer months.  This is when families with kids are on vacation and we are in our busy season.  It is also the time of the year when we have more stable summer weather patterns and almost constant calm waters.  During the summer vacation, you can catch all of the saltwater species that are native to our waters.   Summer months are especially good for catching offshore species like Red Snapper (season 6-1/8-14), White Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Lane Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Shark, Triggerfish, Grouper, Amberjack, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, White Marlin, Blue Marlin and Tuna.   Inshore fish species like the Flounder, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Red Drum, Pompano, Ladyfish, Bluefish and Tripletail are also abundant during the summer vacation fishing season.

Gulf Shores Fall and Winter Fishing  Fall of the year offers some great offshore big game fishing for White Marlin and Sailfish in addition to the bottom fishing or reef fishing that we have in Alabama.  Offshore reef fish like the Red Snapper and Amberjack are closed but White Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Triggerfish, Grouper, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel and Wahoo can all be caught during these fall months.   During the fall, the waters are still warm and these magnificent game fish move in as close as 30 miles of the Alabama shoreline.   Our inshore species like the Speckled Trout, White Trout, Sand Trout and Redfish become abundant during this season.  Winter is an excellent time to catch Bull Reds offshore. They move in close about the first of November and stay plentiful until the early part of spring.
