Recent Reviews of Captain Experiences

  • ★★★★★
    Great fishing trip with Bobby!

    Moriah B. with Bobby C. of Orange Beach, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    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!

    Joshua J. with Marty C. of Gulf Shores, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    Bobby was an excellent guide. He put us on fish and he baited out lines and took the fish off. He was a good conversationalist and provided good information about the local area. Will definitely try and book him again when we return.

    Robert T. with Bobby C. of Orange Beach, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    Unbelievable pleasureful experience, best guided trip we have EVER had.

    Todd M. with Marty C. of Gulf Shores, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time fishing with Bill and Nikki. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with us. Very windy and choppy in the Gulf that forced us to stay in the inside bay. We caught plenty of fish, and several varieties but we could on find one legal size. Highly recommend them to charter.

    Richard C. with Bill W. of Gulf Shores, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    Windy and tough conditions, but T Roy was able to get us on some fish and we had a great time! Great way to spend an afternoon.

    Joe F. with Troy W. of Orange Beach, Alabama

    Beautiful day to be on the water ❤️

    Shawn D. with Rob K. of Orange Beach, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Bobby was GREAT. The 2 hour inshore is a perfect length of time if you have kids, or if you don't know if you will enjoy fishing or not. My son has been talking about fishing forever and I found Captain Bobby via a Google search. This was the BEST DAY of our trip to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach. He's excellent and patient with kids - and will clean up your fish and cut it up and provide you with a restaurant recommendation where they will fry up your fish for you. I even caught a 40 lb Black Drum fish - and it was my first time ever fishing! 10/10.

    Megan M. with Bobby C. of Orange Beach, Alabama

    Colby is awesome! Great guide and personable. He knows his craft. Would highly recommend going with this guy on a nearshore fishing excursion anytime. Brad from Green Bay

    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!

    Even though it was a day after a front and the wind was blowing Jamie still was able to put us on some redfish. Eventhough we didn’t rack up we still had a good time.

    Capt Bobby was the best! He put us on the fish, was very personable, and professional. He was knowledgeable on all the different kinds of fish we caught. He cleaned and packaged our fish for us and even recommended a place for us to take our fish so that they would cook it for us! We had a great time and definitely will have to come back to fish with Capt. Bobby again!
