The trolling bite has been off this month, so we've focused on bottom fish species for the fish box! With Red Snapper still in season and Triggerfish season opened August 1st, our customers get to experience the tug action of both fish! Come join us for a fun filled day on the water and explore the beautiful Gulf views and its natural habitat!

Red snapper have been on fire these last few weeks! Had a small tropical system try to break our spirits, but as soon as it was gone, we started crushing them again! Triggerfish season is back open and we're excited to get offshore and bring some of them back to the dock as well!

Tripletail and jacks are the main target right now. We start out the morning catching jacks on fly, then switch over to targeting tripletail. Redfishing has been decent as well.

    I had a great half day trip with Ben last week. He knew a super place with lots of big Redfish. His custom designed skiff was made for gliding by and through the salt marsh. He rigged up my 8 wt with a 40# flourocarbon "tippet", tied on a hand tied fly, and we were off. Ben had me on fish all morning. I even caught some of them. Hope to go fishing with Ben again when in the Mobile area.

    Tim was the absolute BEST captain we could ever ask for! We had the best time! This was our first charter. Tim is VERY knowledgeable and always put us on the fish! He is also very nice and easy to get along with. We booked 4 hours and we were catching fish the whole time. We will definitely be booking again 10000000/10 worth the money.

    We took our first family fishing trip (3 hour inshore) today with Captain Reid and had the best time! We boarded his awesome boat in Fort Morgan and caught a variety of fish. Captain Reid was very knowledgeable, friendly and made sure we had a great experience. It was a very relaxing, laid back trip. Well worth the money. We look forward to another fishing trip soon. Thanks Captain Reid!
