About Your Guide

Sara G.

Certified Damn Good Guide

Independent Guide

Captain Sara has been on the team for more than 5 years as the Second Captain and brings over 20 years deep sea fishing experience to our fishing team.

“I was born and raised in Pensacola, Florida where my dad and grandfather got me hooked on fishing the Escambia River. Many summers were spent with my dad on the Bob Sikes Bridge.

In 2002 after High School graduation… some friends started working as deckhands in Orange Beach and invited me to ride along. At this point, it was my first time in the Gulf of Mexico and I fell in love with offshore fishing! I became a deckhand that summer and thank God for this opportunity. Since I’ve started as a deckhand I have worked my way up to a 100 ton Masters License and now my dream of being Captain of my own boat has come true. My goal is to provide the enjoyment of being out on the water catching fish, making memories, and becoming friends who become part of my “charter family” and I will continue teaching and helping people fish for as long as I am able.

My time off is spent with my son Rowan (who loves fishing as much as his mama) and our next-generation captain.”

Just returned from an afternoon fishing with Sarah and her first mate Mitch. A great combo that made for a good time. If you are looking for a nice couple who know how to put you on fish, we recommend captain Sarah and shipmate Mitch. Great memories with a couple of grandsons and son-in-laws. Thanks Sarah and Mitch!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
