About Your Guide

Zack Gilbert

Outfitter

Captain Zack has been fishing professionally since 2008, but his passion for the water started long before that. Born and raised in Pensacola, FL, he grew up with salt in his veins and a rod in his hand—living the coastal lifestyle from day one. Now based out of Orange Beach, he’s turned that lifelong love of fishing into a full-time career helping others enjoy the thrill of the catch.

Whether you're brand new to fishing or a seasoned pro, Captain Zack delivers trips that are safe, exciting, and tailored to your experience level. His deep knowledge of local waters, paired with a calm and welcoming attitude, makes every trip smooth, productive, and a whole lot of fun.

Captain Zack takes pride in helping guests enjoy a great day on the water—focused on catching fish, learning something new, and simply making the most of their time out on the Gulf.

Had a fantastic trip with captain Zach and Wade. They were super attentive and made sure we had the best trip. We were definitely the talk of the marina when we pulled in with some.monster snappers. Will 100% recommend and will book again next year.
