Fishing has been good for this time of year. Sheepshead, White Sea trout and bull reds. Weather has been hit and miss to get into the Gulf, but we can go inshore as well.

Weather has been great here on the gulf coast, light winds and warms temps! Fishing is starting to pick up as well. Sheepshead, speckled trout, and redfish have been the target species. The sheepshead bite is goin to really fire off in the coming weeks

Spring time is fast approaching, and with it comes an insane sheepshead bite! Also a few bull red fish mixed in. The bite will only get better thro April. These fish will start gathering in large numbers around any type of structure. Sheepshead and bull reds is our main target...

Wife and I Launched out of Fort Morgan Alabama. Went to some gas rigs and laid the hammer down on White Sea trout and red snapper. Snapper is out of season so through them back. The white trout were huge and hitting every cast. Caught 40 plus in a 4 hour and beer battered them up for fish and chips when we got home. Nothing better than that. Book with Easy livin for a great time and good eating when you batter them up for your fish fry.

Trip: Orange Beach Catch
★★★★★
Great Experience! We had a great time. Captain Kyle did a great job finding spots to catch in and provided a smooth ride. Our deckhand Tristan was outstanding! Friendly, helpful, efficient and an overall nice guy. He kept our rods ready with bait, patient when taking our pictures, he made this day extremely enjoyable.

Cade was amazing and would highly recommend him. Caught lots of fish. Completely satisfied with the charter. Thank You Cade for a great fishing experience.

Trip: 3 Hour Inshore/Offshore
★★★★★
We were quite disappointed in our experience. Cade is a nice young man, but asked us nothing about our fishing experience or expectations for the day. Our first fishing spot was about 300 yards from the launch ramp where we caught about 5 or 6 fish, with the biggest being about 8 inches. We then traveled about 35 minutes to the second location which was under a highway bridge.. We caught about 4 or 5 fish, with the biggest being about 10 inches. I understand that the guide cannot be responsible for the fish caught but it seemed like we were in locations that were targeting smaller fish. For the cost of the trip, we were expecting more of a "Gulf charter fishing experience." I would recommend not using this venue.
