    We chose the worse day to go, it had rained that morning and they had already gotten about 13” of rain. We only caught 2 but Captain Shawn worked his tail off trying every spot he could to put us on fish but they were just not biting. He was so much fun to fish with and as I said he tried. His fishing gear is top notch and his boat is very clean and he is very knowledgeable about the area! We will be using him again for sure! Just remember a bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work!

    We had an awesome fishing experience in Gulf Shores with Shawn! He did a great job guiding the less experienced fishermen in our group. He took time to learn about us and was easy to talk to. Great experience and would definitely do it again!

    Cpt Shawn did a great job putting us on fish, despite the cold weather. Even brought extra coffee cups for us to borrow. Was attentive, visited with us. Will book again when back in town. Great communication leading up to trip.

    We Loved Captain Shawn! He was patient, helpful and very engaging. If the fish weren’t biting in one spot he’d move to another. We caught a variety of species and was knowledgeable about every one we caught . He realized how excited I was to see the dolphins so he got them to jump in our waves from the boat. Every time we saw them he was sure to try to get them to interact with us. His boat was very nice and clean, you could tell he loved his boat. IT WAS AWESOME! We plan on a second trip with him to do offshore fishing next. We enjoyed his inshore trip and hospitality! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! One more thing… although we didn’t bring our 10 year old son I definitely would not hesitate to take him out on a Captain Shawn’s boat! He’s a family man, I could tell he would do great with younger passengers as well.

    We went on a charter with shawn today and it was great. We had fun and caught a bunch of fish. He also taught us a bunch of different things about fishing. Overall this was a great trip and I would recommend it.

    Capt Shawn very knowledgeable. We caught a variety of species of fish. We had a great time and would go again. FYI no Cheeto or spray sunscreens on a fiberglass boat because it will stain. 😎
