About Your Trip

Looking for a fun way to spend a couple of hours on the water? Join Captain Kevin for a relaxed trip exploring the Bon Secour River and Oyster Bay. Whether you'd like to do a little fishing, enjoy the scenery, or just cruise around and unwind, this trip is a great way to experience the area.

With 2-hour trips available at 7:00 AM, 10:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and 4:00 PM, it's easy to fit a trip into your schedule. Along the way, you'll have time to wet a line while taking in the sights of the river and bay.

This trip is a great fit for all skill levels and is both child-friendly and disability-friendly. Whether you're introducing the kids to fishing or just looking for a laid-back outing with family and friends, Captain Kevin is happy to tailor the trip to your group.

You'll be aboard a 24' center console, which is perfect for exploring these local waters. All necessary fishing gear and live bait are included, and if you'd like to keep any legal fish, fish cleaning is included as well.

If you're interested, Captain Kevin can also swing by the local "Shrimp Man" or stop at one of the waterfront restaurants in the area. Lunch can be arranged for an additional fee.

Feel free to bring your favorite drinks along, and beer is welcome in cans. We also recommend bringing sunglasses, sunscreen, and weather-appropriate clothing so you're comfortable throughout the trip.

Whether you're fishing, sightseeing, or just enjoying a couple of hours on the water, Captain Kevin would love to show you around the Bon Secour River and Oyster Bay.

I grew up in Georgia fishing the local lakes for catfish and bass. My family and I started vacationing in Gulf Shores in 2015, when I found my love for saltwater fishing. We relocated our family here and I started deck handing in 2017. My Capt, Capt Rob, has over 2 decades of experience and groomed me into the inshore/nearshore fisherman I am today. I love fishing light tackle, targeting redfish but appreciate getting on all different species and enjoying a good fight. I love people and teaching all ages the techniques that were taught to me. Spend the day and find out what the fishing in Gulf Shores is all about!

It was a good fishing trip. The weather was rough but we still caught fish none were keepers. Probably missed a nice catch due to lack of experience.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
