About Your Trip

Gulf Shores one of the most beautiful places on the Alabama coast, and it was has the rich fishery to match! There's no better way to experience all that this amazing area has to offer than an offshore trip with Captain Randall! He's been fishing this area for more than fifteen years, and has a deep knowledge of the Gulf of Mexico, from the inshore to offshore waters.

On this deep-sea trip, you'll go after some of the biggest, baddest fish that the Gulf has to offer. That includes Swordfish, a deepwater predator that's a famously good fighter, in addition to some epic bottom fish including Black Grouper and Tilefish, both known as delicious table fare.

You'll use several different techniques on this trip, including deep-dropping, trolling, and drifting to attract bites from different parts of the water column. You can relax between bites, but keep an eye on those rod tips!

Captain Randall runs his deep sea fishing adventures aboard his 30' Contender center console, a badass boat built to tackle anything the Gulf can throw at you. She sports a 200-HP Yamaha engine for maximum speed, and is kitted out with amenities to improve your fishing. That includes live wells for your bait, an ice box for your keepers, and more!

Captain Randall will supply all the essentials, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle. All you've gotta bring along is sunscreen, proper clothing, sunglasses, and a good attitude. What are you waiting for?

Great charter, showed up on the wrong date and they accommodated us by letting us fish that afternoon vs the next morning when we planned on driving back home. Jerry was great capt and put us fish and entertained all afternoon

We traveled about fifty miles offshore. Randall and Jerry did a great job. They really put us on the fish. Caught over one hundred, kept about thirty, sent the rest back to grow up some more. My son, my nephew, their army buddy, and myself all different fishing levels, all had a great time. Will go back again next time I'm in Gulf Shores.

These guys came to our rescue! We had a trip set with another company and they last minute canceled. Circle Hook took us out on a quick 2 hour trip. We were a team of beginners including 2 kids under 10. Our captain taught us a few tricks and we came home with a cooler full of fish.

Not the best experience. Had a trip planned in early A.M. and had to juggle my schedule to take an afternoon booking. Also, ran into a snag with Randall at the end of the trip because I didn't have a QR code and he couldn't get his share of the booking fee. I explained my situation with you and the difficulty sending the QR code to me and was told to go ahead with...

Everything was great! Got on fish right away, got our limit for 5 and then targeted other types of fish for the rest of the trip. We ended with lots of fish and a great experience. I recommend using Captain Randall if you want a cooler full of fish.
