Captain Alex, an experienced fishing guide based in the coastal city of Pensacola, Florida, offers anglers the opportunity to explore the diverse fishing grounds of the Gulf of Mexico. With a deep understanding of the region's marine ecosystems and a passion for the sport, he specializes in providing unforgettable fishing experiences. Whether you're chasing after trophy red snapper offshore, targeting speckled trout and redfish in the bay, or exploring the pristine estuaries for flounder and sheepshead, Captain Alex's local expertise ensures every fishing trip is a memorable and successful adventure along the beautiful Gulf Coast of Florida. I also offer trading fishing trips for deer hunting trips.

Captain Alex and Chago were THE BEST!!! They both worked so hard to make sure we caught as many fish as possible and had a great time even when it was pouring down rain on us. We would go back and fish with them any day. Awesome trip!!

These guys made a last minute trip happen. Our captain, Alex, worked hard to put us on some good fish. Even when the weather was against us we had some great Florida Panhandle fishing.
