Gulf Shores one of the most beautiful places on the Alabama coast, and it was has the rich fishery to match! There's no better way to experience all that this amazing area has to offer than an offshore trip with Captain Randall! He's been fishing this area for more than fifteen years, and has a deep knowledge of the Gulf of Mexico, from the inshore to offshore waters. On this deep-sea trip, you'll go after some of the biggest, baddest fish that the Gulf has to offer. That includes Swordfish, a deepwater predator that's a famously good fighter, in addition to some epic bottom fish including Black Grouper and Tilefish, both known as delicious table fare. You'll use several different techniques on this trip, including deep-dropping, trolling, and drifting to attract bites from different parts of the water column. You can relax between bites, but keep an eye on those rod tips! Captain Randall runs his deep sea fishing adventures aboard his 30' Contender center console, a badass boat built to tackle anything the Gulf can throw at you. She sports a 200-HP Yamaha engine for maximum speed, and is kitted out with amenities to improve your fishing. That includes live wells for your bait, an ice box for your keepers, and more!

    Captain Wilder was exceptional in many ways. Don’t be fooled by the simple accommodations. The boat is seaworthy and comfortable even in adverse seas. Captain Wilder is perceptive and sensitive to the needs of all on board. He is an accomplished captain and found us fish where others did not. Great personality and fun to be with for the day. We had a great time. See our catch below.

    I don't write many reviews, But this Captain is worth taking time to share with others how great and down to earth he is. Not only did he go above and beyond to make my trip great with conversation and put me on fish. But shared his equipment and knowledge with other Captains. Colby not only has the experience but the personality to make your trip rememberable. 5* +
