trip description for 4 hour inshore/nearshore fishing in Elberta

This trip can be for the whole family or just the adults and no kiddos! If you are staying in the Bay, you'll pull up a Shrimp net first to catch the live bait you will be using to do some fishing. If you are going to be doing nearshore fishing, you will head on out without pulling the net to do some trolling or fishing near the jetties. You can also do some shark fishing if that is what you would like to do. Let the us know what you want to do so we can customize your trip. Read More

Spend the day with our charters and let them show you what makes the fishing in Gulf Shores so memorable! With Captain Chase at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands. Start times might be impacted by the length of the trip that you select. These waters are home to Skipjack Tuna, Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Redfish, and more if you come at the right time of year. During the trip, you might be spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Captain Chase can also show you kite fishing. If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly! You'll find yourself aboard a 35' Henriques saltwater fishing boat with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself. There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work. The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish. A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with us! Read More

What types of mangrove snapper fishing charters are common in Alabama?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for mangrove snapper in Alabama as well as inshore fishing, nearshore fishing, and jetty fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Alabama are trolling, bottom fishing, and light tackle fishing but live bait fishing and cut bait fishing are popular as well.

How much do Alabama mangrove snapper fishing charters cost?

Prices for mangrove snapper in Alabama can range anywhere from about $575 to $5,600, but the average price for a half day trip for mangrove snapper in Alabama is $1,034. The average price for a full day trip for mangrove snapper in Alabama is $3,708.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for mangrove snapper fishing in Alabama?

    Captain Chase got us our snapper limit in a 4 hour trip. We had to go directly through a pretty good storm (still pretty cool) but came out of it and started catching fish immediately. Great guy, knows his stuff. Definitely recommend by my two teens and their two best friends, my wife and I !!!

    Captain Stephan put us on the fish! Logan the deckhand earned his money making sure all 6 of our lines were baited and in the water at all times. They're both friendly and knew what they were doing. We limited out on snapper and caught a ton that we had to throw back. Would highly recommend them to anyone unless it's the week we're coming back down because we'll have them booked forsure.

    Tom made for a spectacular experience. We caught tons of fish. He is patient and kind. We had no children on the boat but I could see where he would be great with them. He’s in with a really cordial guide community who seem to help each other out. We rarely passed a boat that didn’t wave and give a “hi Tom”. Really cool experience. Will do over and over again.
