We caught more because the captain knows the water well enough to keep you on fish!
Ed Bovier
Make sure you have great captain (like Captain Ronnie) who knows where the fish are biting.

Find a Captain with great reviews and recommendation from local rental company reps.
Rose Soileau
Absolutely recommend for first time or for experienced fisherman. Highly recommend Captain Randy.
Richard Grice
You can’t predict the weather or how the fish will bite, so he prepared for anything.

Yes it's a great experience with lots of stuff to see and a variety of fish to catch.
Russell Arceneaux
Our captain had to hunt for fish which he found, it’s called fishing not necessarily catching!
Michael Gallik
Get out early to avoid the heat and be flexible in what you want to catch to find the best spots.
Wayne Edwards
Bring your muscles with you because you will need them, and you are going to catch fish!!!
Charles Yancey
Trust in your guide/ captain. You're paying them for the knowledge and expertise.
Ian Carothers
If you have kids or older members pick an early morning trip or a late evening trip. Hydrate!
Brandon Daigle
Prepare above and beyond for the heat. Hydrate and eat so you can enjoy your trip to the fullest.

First time Gulf anglers need to be patient and trust your captain on where to fish.

Weather wasn’t the best and it made a difference from the last trip with Capt. Marty.
Jason Wilson
Be sure to check your fishing season and make sure you book on days that you can keep Snapper.
Kyle Freeman
Recommend Red Eye Charters and fishing on LiL Red to do all they can to put you on the fish
Luke Bell
Guided tours that are private are the way to go! Stressed Out Charters is a great team!
Cody Hudson
Book with Ronnie if you want to catch fish. Saw others with no where near what we caught

Call Gulf Shores Charter and reserve your dates before they are all gone.
Do it now.

The weather can change at any time. Be open to changes in your itinerary due to the weather.
Justin Jensen
Check the weather ahead of time. If it windy you are absolutely going to get wet.
ROBERT NIDA
In March, bring a hoodie. The clouds pop in front of the sun and it gets a little chilly.
Daniel Watt
It was a beautiful day a little colder than we are used too when we come down here.
Drew Cohen
The boat is on the small side so go in nice weather, but be prepared to catch plenty of fish
Kathryn Clingan
Understand what fish you are most likely to catch - we knew that mackerel was most likely

Definitely try a private charter if you can! Much better than party boat fishing.

Early summer, this year was record warm water in August and it slows down the bite.

July is a hot, fall or spring would be more weather comfortable but it's still worth the trip.

A 4 hour fishing excursion was perfect for our family of 5 for our first time out doing this.

Go in the early morning if possible. The mackarel were biting like crazy up until about 9am.
