About Your Trip

Looking to catch a pile of fish without spending the whole day out on the water? Come aboard with Captain Jamie for a 4-hour Snapper fishing trip here in Gulf Shores, AL! The nearshore waters off the coast of Gulf Shores are the perfect place to chase after some prized Gulf species without hauling offshore.

On this 4-hour trip, Captain Jamie will take you from Gulf Shores out to the nearshore reefs where you'll be targeting Red Snapper, Triggerfish, and Vermillion Snapper. To attract these great-eating species, you'll mostly be drifting over nearshore reefs and other structures, jigging or drifting cut-bait to attract the bottom dwellers.

You'll be fishing aboard a 24' Bull's Bay bay boat, with a capacity for up to 4 people. Although this boat isn't the largest in the marina, she'll have no problem getting you to where the fish are biting, and without the diesel fumes to boot!

Captain Jamie will provide all rods, reels, tackle, live bait and fishing licenses. All you need to bring is sunglasses, sunscreen, and any snacks or drinks you might need. He'll handle the rest!

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.

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.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.
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, bait, 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.
