    Marty was awesome. Extremely knowledgeable. We were all novices, but he took his time. Explained what he was doing, where we were, had some awesome stories to tell. Our guide also cancelled on us, and Marty was assigned to us by the site. I called to cancel because he was over an hour drive away, but he came to pick us up for a little gas money. What an experience. Great price. Don’t hesitate!

    We had an awesome afternoon on the water with our guide Hunter! He did a fantastic job of getting us on fish and making sure we had great gulf fishing experience! We were able to catch trophy red fish and sheepshead in the same trip! Thanks so much to Captain Hunter... we could not have asked for better guide on this trip!

    This was a complete blast! Tom really knows what he’s doing too. He was patient with us, and our ultra newbie grandson from Phoenix. He taught him how to catch mackerel and pompano. He went the extra mile to find the fish and show us how to land them. We highly recommend !

    Rob S. with Tom M. of Orange Beach, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    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.

    Shannon P. with Shawn S. of Bon Secour, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Dylan and Captain John are both top notch. Due to rough water we didn’t catch a ton of fish but they they did get on some and we had a blast. Hope to do it again and I will be calling them when I do. Thank you both for the good time
