About Your Trip

We will typically launch the boat right around sunrise to go redfishing. We will be on my custom built flats boat, poling marshes and grass flats looking to sight cast to tailing redfish.

We target bull and slot redfish, black drum, speckled trout, tripletail, jack crevalle, and tarpon depending on the season. Both fly and spinning rods are effective methods to catch these species and both methods are welcomed. Anglers of all experience levels are welcome aboard my boat and I will do my best to put anyone on fish. We are based out of Mobile, AL and mainly fish the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta, Mobile Bay, the Mississippi Sound, and the Biloxi Marsh but regularly trailer the boat to other areas. All licenses, fishing tackle, lunch, and bottled water are provided on trips.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is the home of over 1500 Damn Good fishing and hunting guides. Our mission is to unlock the outdoors for everyone, and we want to help you get out there through our no-hassle online booking experience and our team of outdoors experts.

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.

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 case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
