We were scheduled for a Tuesday, Captain Craig called to let us know of “Problem Weather” on our Scheduled day and suggested we move up a day. We took his advice and were given clear directions on where to meet Captain Garret for our Trip.

Captain Garrett was personable, informative and had us on fish almost immediately to start the day! We caught Mangrove Snapper, Redfish, Flounder, & Spanish Mackerel. Numerous Dolphins were spotted on the trip including the Local Celebrity Dolphin “Half Tail” ! Not only did we catch plenty of fresh fish to feed the entire group back at the condo ( and also fish to take home for the freezer ) we had a great time to boot.

My Wife and I have been on several guided trips and our next trip to AL/FL coast ( Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, Pensacola ) won’t be complete without a trip with Capn’s Craig or Garrett.  12/10 highly recommend!

This was my second time booking Emerald “C”. This time around, we fished with Captain Gavin and Captain Garrett. These two guys do not play around when it comes to fishing! They have mastered several different fishing techniques and know how to track down the fish. We had to go offshore a bit to snag them as inshore fishing isn’t the greatest this time of year. They put us right on top of Red Snapper and they were biting immediately. Gavin and Garrett are also great at explaining what the fish are doing and why we are fishing with certain techniques. Emerald “C” is lucky to have two great guys like this on the team! The wife and I will book with Emerald “C” again the next time we are in the Gulf Shores area. Hopefully we can snag Captain Gavin or Captain Garrett again! Thanks guys!

My son and I had a great time. The two guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. We had plenty of bites missed due to our inexperience, and because of smart fish. However, my son was able to pull in two Greater Amberjack with the assistance of the young man on hand for our trip. They unfortunately were not big enough to keep. Nevertheless, he had a GREAT time. And the entire family noticed the subtle joy he carried that day because of it. I am so appreciative of that. I recommend this captain and crew to anyone looking to have a good time on the water.

Captain Gavin was knowledgeable and friendly.  We caught our limit early and then went out to a different location to fish for larger fish that were catch and release. Captain Craig watches the weather conditions and changes plans as needed to get the best experience. Our time was delayed for weather and to allow us the best opportunity for a successful trip. Would highly recommend this charter.

We did the 5 hour insore trip and it was great.  The meeting location was easy to find and the crew was right on time.  It was a fairly short trip out to catch bait and then directly to the fishing spot.  With in minutes we were caughting Spanish mackerel and some ladyfish.  After that we moved and hooked up on two different kinds of snapper.  Following that up was a third spot that produced a pretty big red drum.  Captain Gavin was great, very helpful, and knowledgeable.  I highly recommend this crew!!!
