About Your Trip

There's no better way to enjoy the beautiful Gulf Coast of Alabama than on a charter with Captain Bob! On this fishing trip, you'll explore the waters of Mobile Bay on board Captain Bob's 24' Blazer Bay center console, targeting Redfish, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Mangrove Snapper! These fish are all a blast to catch, and are excellent eating fish as well.

As you set out into Mobile Bay, Captain Bob will share his knowledge of the area's history, ecology, and the best fishing spots. He will also provide guidance on the different techniques and lures to use to maximize your chances of catching a big one. You'll be throwing both bait and lures, depending on the conditions and your preferences. Both of these methods can be really fun, and you can even mix it up and practice both!

As the day progresses, you'll continue to catch and release various species, including Redfish, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Mangrove Snapper. These are all excellent game fish that are highly sought after by anglers of all levels! if you want to keep some catches, Captain Bob is happy to clean them for you after the trip. The fish are feeding—what are you waiting for?!

Capt. Bobby lives in Orange Beach with his wife Tera and their son Wyatt and daughter Katie Rae! He has been a fisherman his whole life. He grew up in central Alabama working in his father's bait shop and fished the waters of the Tallapoosa and Coosa Rivers. In his teens, he got interested in saltwater fishing and has become absolutely addicted to chasing after inshore and offshore game. He especially enjoys fishing with beginners to this sport and seeing their newly found passion and enthusiasm. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or a novice I’d love to fish with you! Look me up and let’s go get em! Orange Beach is a beautiful place and I know all the best spots to go on and off the water. I’m a fishing / tour guide! Come see me!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Captain Bobby! He told us all about the area, the fish, and where to get the best seafood meals. We caught plenty of fish (and even a small shark!) so there was never any boredom in our two hours. 10/10 experience!

Bobby was absolutely wonderful making sure all of us were having a great time during our 3 hour trip. He explained the various techniques of fishing that we used and helped my first-time-boat-fishing 8-yr old grandson land a red drum! He was quick to leave and head for a better spot when the fish stopped biting. We got a gafftopsail catfish and speckled trout that were keepers (the red drum was too big to keep). Bobby was exceptional at coordinating the fishing lines and making sure everyone was baited and actively fishing. It was a great day and I hope we can return for another trip in the not too distant future!

Captain Bobby was fantastic right from the start. Great personality. Extremely knowledgeable fisherman and Captain. He worked very hard to put me on fish. Weather conditions were not optimal but Captain Bobby wasn’t discouraged. We found fish and it was on! I highly recommend Captain Bobby and will definitely fish with him again in the future. Thank you Captain Bobby for the experience and memory.

He cleaned, filet the fish, and packed them on ice for us. This captain knows where this fish are and treats the customers right! Thank you for a great experience on the gulf Captain Bobby.

My wife and I went out with Captain Bobby for a four-hour inshore fishing trip yesterday. We caught 5 or 7 keepers (Spanish Mackerel, a Pompano and a Blue Runner). However, the best part of our outing with Captain Bobby was being out on the water with a courteous, attentive and pleasantly conversational guide. My wife and I recommend Captain Bobby to anyone that interested in the "whole adventure" to choose Captain

We booked the Shark Fishing Insanity trip and had a great experience overall. Bobby was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and patient with our group. Going into it, we didn’t fully know what to expect, and two out of the four of us had never even been on the ocean before.

Unfortunately, motion sickness got the best of one of us and we weren’t able to continue with the shark fishing. But Bobby went above and beyond as he brought us closer to shore and set us up to fish for sheepshead instead so we could still enjoy the rest of our time.

We really appreciated his flexibility and positive attitude, and he made the best out of a tough situation for us. We’ll definitely be booking another trip in the future. Thank you, Bobby!
