We had a great experience with Captain Danny today! There were three dads and three 8 year olds on the boat and he was such a great guide and teacher with the little ones. We caught some fish right away at the first stop and then spotted a number of dolphins on the bay. We all had a great time!

Had a great time out fishing with Captain Don today! Group of 5 adults and we all caught several fish. We all felt safe and everything was well maintained. The views of course were amazing! Will definitely use him again next time we are in Gulf Shores area.

Captain Danny was awesome! He was so good with my boys (13, 12, & 6) and us- I would highly recommend booking with this group! Capt Danny was so friendly and experienced, he was able to maneuver us around to catch some even when it was super cold. We really enjoyed it! They were flexible with us on scheduling too. If you're thinking of doing a beginner fishing trip- go this route & request Captain Danny!
