Everything to Know About Booking an Alabama whiting fishing charter

What are the best whiting fishing charters in Alabama?

The best whiting fishing charters in Alabama are:

Why should I book a whiting fishing charter in Alabama with Captain Experiences?

Our Damn Good Guides currently offer 2 whiting trips in Alabama, and the most popular trips in the area are Gulf Coast Bites by the Shore guided by Scott and Offshore Fishing 4-People guided by Mike.

Our guides in Alabama are rated a 5 out of 5 based on 3300 verified reviews on Captain Experiences.

Looking for kid friendly whiting guides / fishing lessons in Alabama? Check out our beginner and family friendly whiting guides in Alabama.

What types of whiting fishing charters are common in Alabama?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for whiting in Alabama as well as nearshore fishing, inshore fishing, and flats fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Alabama are jigging, light tackle fishing, and live bait fishing but topwater fishing and artificial lure fishing are popular as well.

How much do Alabama whiting fishing charters cost?

Prices for whiting in Alabama can range anywhere from about $400 to $1,150, but the average price for a half day trip for whiting in Alabama is $700.

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 whiting fishing in Alabama?

The most popular season for whiting fishing in Alabama is spring, and most anglers book their trips 26 days in advance.

Do I need a Alabama fishing license for whiting and what are the bag limits for whiting in Alabama?

    Jamie is awesome! This is the 2nd time we have fished with him. He got us all on the biggest fish we have ever pulled in. 24 & 26 lbs Jacks! Would love to go again! So much fun. He definitely knows what he is doing. Made all the right calls for our trip. Weather was a bit choppy when we where supposed to orginally go out. So he had us wait and that was absolutely the right thing to do. Ended up being the best day. 3 year old even had fun. Seeing dauphins where and added suprises. Definitely recommend.
