Gulf Shores one of the most beautiful places on the Alabama coast, and it was has the rich fishery to match! There's no better way to experience all that this amazing area has to offer than an offshore trip with Captain Randall! He's been fishing this area for more than fifteen years, and has a deep knowledge of the Gulf of Mexico, from the inshore to offshore waters. On this trip, you'll be chasing premier sportfish species, including Blackfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Yellowfin Tuna! These fish are top-of-the-foodchain pelagic predators, and they put up some of the toughest fights on this side of the Atlantic. Get ready for powerful runs, deep dives, and jumps that would put acrobats to shame. In addition, these fish are some of the best table fare out there, whether you opt to sear them on the grill, make fish tacos, or serve them raw as sashimi. In order to get bit, you'll troll bait and lures at various depths to attract both topwater fish like Mahi Mahi and deeper-water species such as Yellowfin. You can relax while the lines go out, but keep an eye on the rods—you don't want to miss a bite! Captain Randall runs his offshore fishing adventures aboard his 30' Contender center console, a badass boat built to tackle anything the Gulf can throw at you. She sports a 200-HP Yamaha engine for maximum speed, and is kitted out with amenities to improve your fishing. That includes live wells for your bait, an ice box for your keepers, and more! Captain Randall will supply all the essentials, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle. All you've gotta bring along is sunscreen, proper clothing, sunglasses, and a good attitude.

    Great trip- Right on time, easy to work with!

    Capt Doug and Fishy were incredible. Best trip we have ever been on. Boat was great for the 8 of us and easily handled more. The boat is very well layed out plenty of room for everyone. Had some hip issues and was using a cane on the trip with no issues. Couldn't say the boat is completely handicap accessible for a wheelchair but would recommend to any one with a cane or walker. Capt and hand had no issue and even reviewed the different safeties I would need to follow in an EM. Will being booking next year's trip with Capt Doug
