About Your Trip

Gulf Shores Fishing Adventure with Captain Shawn
Get ready for an unforgettable day on the water with Captain Shawn, a seasoned angler who knows the tides, the fish, and exactly where to find the bite! Whether you’re chasing your dream catch, teaching the kids how to reel one in, or just soaking up the Gulf Coast sunshine, Captain Shawn’s charter promises a fishing experience you’ll never forget.

Reel in a Variety of Gulf Coast Species

The waters off Gulf Shores are teeming with an impressive array of fish species. With a bit of luck (and Captain Shawn’s expertise), you’ll be hooking into Amberjack, Sheepshead, Cobia, Mangrove Snapper, Gray Triggerfish, Redfish, Mackerel, Red Snapper, Mahi Mahi, and more. Depending on the season and conditions, you might find yourself:
- Trolling for fast-moving fish like Mackerel or Mahi Mahi
- Drifting for those hard-fighting bottom dwellers
- Jigging to entice a bite from reef fish
- Or bottom fishing for Snapper and other Gulf favorites

Whether it’s your first time casting a line or you’re a seasoned angler looking for a challenge, Captain Shawn has the knowledge and gear to help you succeed.

Family-Friendly Fun
Planning a family fishing trip? Kids are absolutely welcome aboard! Captain Shawn is great with families and loves introducing young anglers to the joy of fishing. Make sure to ask in advance about child-sized life vests or bring your own to ensure everyone is comfortable. And don’t forget to pack snacks for the little ones to keep the energy high and the smiles big!

Your Ride: 24’ Sea Fox Center Console
You’ll be fishing from a 24’ Sea Fox center console, a versatile and reliable boat built for comfort and productivity. With space for up to 6 passengers, it’s perfect for family outings or a day on the water with friends. The boat is fully equipped with:
- Rods, reels, and tackle
- Lures and both live bait and frozen bait to tempt even the pickiest fish
- A fishing license for the day, so you don’t have to worry about paperwork

Captain Shawn has everything ready for you—just bring your essentials, and he’ll handle the rest.

Captain Shawn will guide you on the latest regulations for size limits, harvest restrictions, and seasonal closures. If a species isn’t in season, no worries—you’ll still have plenty of exciting options to target. With his guidance, you’ll not only have a productive day on the water but also leave with a deeper understanding of the local fishery.
