About Your Trip

Head offshore with Captain Brooks and spend the day crushing Red Snapper off of Orange Beach, AL! In addition to the natural reefs and rock ledges where Snapper like to congregate, the Gulf Coast of Alabama features thousands of artificial reefs, which provide perfect habitat for these prized fish. In fact, despite having only 50-odd miles of coastline, Alabama is one of the best places in the country to catch your limit, and you shouldn't miss this opportunity to take your shot at these photogenic and absolutely delicious fish!

To hook some keepers, you'll cruise offshore to the best fishing grounds, then jig the underwater rocks and structure in order to draw bites. Snapper get big, and they can be challenging to haul over the rail. Have no fear though—Captain Brooks is a pro, and will make sure you're able to bag a few.

You'll be fishing from the deck of his 30' Buskens saltwater fishing vessel, a comfortable boat fitted with a powerful Cummins engine to get you out there fast. She's also equipped with a full suite of electronics, a flybridge, live wells, and an ice box for your keepers!

Captain Brooks will supply everything you need for the Snapper trip of a lifetime, including rods, reels, tackle, bait, and most importantly, his expertise and years of experience getting hooked up on record-setting fish. He'll even clean your catch for you!

Weather wasn't great, rained twice, not their fault. The captain did call around looking for better spots but nothing came up. But this was not a shark fishing trip. It was basically like jug lining for catfish but for shark. Put bait out on buoys and circle around them while trolling with lures until something was hooked. There was 1 sand shark landed but it was protected, so, couldn't keep it. If I would've known that we were not actually going to be fishing I would not have booked the trip and went for something a heck of a lot cheaper. Also, the tip to the deck hand was mandatory at 20%, so, the trip didn't cost $1,000 it was $1,200. The captain and deckhand were friendly and seemed like good guys but not at all what we expected in a shark fishing trip.

Trip: Alabama Shark Slam 31'

Response from Captain Experiences:

Hey Cody, we’re sorry to hear the trip didn’t meet your expectations. It sounds like the approach to shark fishing wasn’t what you had in mind, and we understand your frustration with the setup and not being able to keep the one shark that was caught. We also apologize for the confusion around the tip being mandatory— we do share via text and email that 20% tip is recommended, but we apologize for any confusion....

We did not have the experience that we had hoped and planned for. We felt like the ad for the adventure was not what it was listed. We did not fish for species listed and boat was not ready for us when we arrived. We had added two hours to our trip, but ended up spending this time in travel and waiting versus actually fishing. Not a great adventure for adults or children. The price was very costly for the experience we received. Did not want to leave a bad review, but wanted to let others know that this trip was very expensive for the outcome we had.
