5 Hour trips in early spring are a bit different. The trolling bite is slow if there is one at all. Typically we just run out and bottom fish the whole time. Today we kept a bunch of vermilion snapper and had 1 trigger fish. We released a ton of red snapper and small trigger fish. Surprisingly with the moon at almost a full moon phase, and a clear night, the bite was pretty good with action the whole time.

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.

5 out of 5 stars. My granddaughter loved Jeff. He tried his best to get the big redfish to the boat with her, just spit the hook out at the last second.

The captain was great. Put us on the fish and we hauled them in. All five of us limited out on B liner’s in a little over an hour. The deck hand, first mate was definitely awesome. As hot as the fishing was he hustled all the time and kept everything going great. Both were polite and professional.
