About Your Trip

Although he catches fish of all kinds, Red Snapper might as well be Captain Mike's speciality. He loves running trips for this highly photogenic and famously tasty species, and will make sure to get you your limit!

You'll be fishing for Snapper in deep offshore water, jigging and bottomfishing over reefs and rocks where the Snapper like to congregate. Even if you've never hauled up a lunker before, this trip will be a blast and a perfect way to fill your cooler with some top-shelf table fare.

In addition to Snapper, you'll also be able to hook other reef species, such as Amberjack, Triggerfish, Vermillion Snapper, Grouper, and more! These fish are also excellent eating, and you're welcome to keep some for dinner.

You'll be fishing from the deck of Captain Mike's 26' ProKat catamaran. This puppy is built for speed and stability and is equipped with twin 300-HP Suzuki outboards, giving you a super fast ride. She's also loaded up with other gear and amenities to keep you comfortable, including a restroom!

Captain Mike will provide you with all the equipment, tackle, and bait you need, plus ice for your food, drinks & fish. He'll also clean and bag your fish for you at the end of the day!

All you need to bring is your sunscreen, sun-protective clothing, sunglasses, any food & drinks you'd like to enjoy onboard. Beer is welcome, but please—no hard liquor or wine, and no glass containers. Get out there and enjoy a world-class charter fishing experience!

You can catch the Dauphin Island-Fort Morgan ferry every day except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. Please visit https://mobilebayferry.com/schedule/ for the daily schedule and pricing.
