About Your Trip

Join Captain Justin for an exciting offshore fishing adventure aboard a 27’ AmeraCat catamaran, a fast, stable, and comfortable vessel built to handle the waters of the Gulf with ease. Powered by twin Suzuki outboards producing a combined 400 horsepower, this boat delivers a smooth ride and gets you to the fishing grounds quickly, maximizing your time with lines in the water.

The catamaran design provides exceptional stability, making it a great choice for anglers of all experience levels. With plenty of deck space and a layout designed for fishing, you'll have room to move around comfortably while targeting the Gulf's diverse lineup of offshore species.

Captain Justin provides everything needed for a successful day on the water, including quality rods, reels, bait, and tackle. Whether you're an experienced angler or stepping aboard for your first offshore trip, you'll have all the gear necessary to fish with confidence.

All you need to bring is weather-appropriate clothing, sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, and a positive attitude. Once you're on board, Captain Justin will handle the rest and work hard to ensure you have a productive and enjoyable day on the water.

For anglers traveling from the eastern side of Mobile Bay, the Dauphin Island–Fort Morgan Ferry offers a convenient route to the departure area and operates daily except on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day.

Join Captain Justin for a Gulf fishing adventure aboard a smooth-riding AmeraCat and experience the comfort, performance, and excitement that make offshore fishing along Alabama’s coast so memorable.

About Your Guide

Justin I.

Independent Guide 34 years of exp.

Captain Justin and his first mate, Barry, are native islanders. Their families have fished the waters near the island for eight generations and counting. Before going into business together, Barry and Justin started fishing out of a small, 12 ft. aluminum boat that ventured out into the Gulf several times! As teenagers, they both deckhanded for charter boats until they had their own boats to fish on. Needless to say, these two know these waters (and fishing spots!) better than anyone. They made a terrific team and were some of the top producers in the charter boat community for years. These guys still fish the waters when their schedules allow, and they are raising rodeo and tournament champions themselves! The ninth generation of islanders is growing up doing what Barry and Justin love - fishing. Dauphin Island holds a special place in their hearts, and they’d love the opportunity to showcase their fishing skills and introduce you to this amazing fishery.
