Come spend some time on the water with In Too Deep Charters and relax as the crew takes care of everything for you. If you’re a little squeamish about touching fish or bait, no worries! The crew does it all from baiting your hook to cleaning and bagging the filets for you. Welcome to Gulf Shores and enjoy a lovely fishing experience in Alabama!
Captain Tony Hogan has been pleasure fishing since he could walk and tournament fishing for over 30 years. He aims to please, so let him know if there’s a species you’d like to target on your trip or if you have any special requests in general.
The boat you’ll be on is a 28’ Angler center console powered by twin 200 HP Mercury engines. It can fit 6 guests and features a few bean bags that you can use during your trip for a little added comfort. There’s a porta potty on the boat if needed. Feel free to bring a cooler with any food and drinks you may want. Also, the boat is equipped with full-featured navigation electronics and a livewell.
For those with a weak stomach, please remember to take some Dramamine at least an hour before you’re scheduled to leave out. The captain does have a Reliefband on board for use if you forget, but it’s best to take that preemptive strike with meds.
The species you can go after include Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Snapper, Grouper, Gray Triggerfish, Cobia, Mackerel, Amberjack, Redfish, and Spotted Seatrout. Using both light and heavy tackle, you can bottom, deep sea, and drift fish, as well as troll, spin, and jig. You can keep your catch as well as bring kids aboard.
At the end of the trip, the deckhand will clean and bag the fish for you. He works for tips, so please bring some cash with you. While he’s hard at it, you can hang out at the marina relaxing on the swings or walk over to Tacky Jacks restaurant. All the fishing gear and licenses are included in your trip.
Visit In Too Deep Charters and make lifelong memories on the water!

Captain Tony put us on the fish and it was fast and furious fishing. We had rough waters to begin the trip and he made sure that our 2 younger children were comfortable and safe. He was also willing to reschedule the trip if it got too bad. We really appreciated the fact that the captain put safety above catching fish, which showed what a class act he and the crew were. In the end the waters calmed, and we had a great time with an abundance of fish caught. Highly recommend if you want a real down to earth captain and crew and some good fishing also!

Myself, brother, and dad recently had the most incredible fishing experience with In Too Deep. From start to finish, everything about this trip was exceptional, leaving us with unforgettable memories and a strong desire to return. First and foremost, Tony and Zach were simply outstanding. Their knowledge, expertise, and passion for fishing were evident from the moment we stepped on board. They were not only skilled fishermen but also incredible guides, always ready to offer valuable tips and advice to ensure we had the best chances of catching fish. Their friendly and approachable nature made the entire trip even more enjoyable. The equipment provided by In Too Deep was top-notch. The fishing gear was well-maintained and of excellent quality, making it a pleasure to fish with. The boat itself was clean, comfortable, and spacious, providing ample room for all the anglers on board. The fishing spots chosen by Tony were strategically selected, leading to a fruitful day on the water. They knew where the fish were biting, and we reeled in an impressive haul. It was an exhilarating experience to witness the excitement and adrenaline rush that comes with landing a big catch. Their expertise and dedication truly made the difference in maximizing our chances of success. Beyond the fishing, the overall experience was fantastic. Tony and Zach had great attention to detail, ensuring that we were well taken care of throughout the trip. Their professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction were evident at every turn. In summary, we can confidently say that our fishing adventure with Tony and Zach at In Too Deep was one for the books. They have top-notch equipment, and strategic fishing spots combined to create an unforgettable experience. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a novice looking to try your hand at fishing, We highly recommend In Too Deep for an outstanding fishing excursion

This is the best fishing trip that we have had in all our years of deep sea fishing! The Captain and Crew were very knowledgeable and very kind and also very patient. We had an awesome trip. We caught some nice sized Snapper. We also caught a shark twice and tried to reel him in before he broke the line. We also caught a 51” Cobia. Can’t wait to get back home to grill these fish! We will be back!!
