Off The Hook Charters –Capt. Hunter

Off The Hook Charters invites you and your family fishing on the beautiful Gulf Coast waters of Gulf Shores, Alabama. This excursion is operated by Captain Hunter. Captain Hunter has been competing in fishing tournaments along the coast since a very young age and has always enjoyed spending every second he could on the water and behind the wheel of a boat. Chartering is a life long passion for him. Hunter is great with children and families, and looks forward to getting your group out on the water.

We will take you out on his 24’ Kenner center console boat, originally built in 2000, and fully restored in 2021. This boat is powered by a 200HP Suzuki engine, with a maximum cruising speed of 36 knots. There is enough room on the boat for up to 4 people fishing without feeling too crowded.

The vessel is fully equipped with all the best safety and navigational features such as a Garmin GPS and fishfinder. The boat contains all the finest quality fishing gear and tackle that is user-friendly. There are also live and artificial baits and a fishing license.

Our number one goal is to provide a safe and fun fishing experience for your whole group. Cliff will share his knowledge with you and help you reel in as many fish as possible. We work very hard to take our customers to the best spots while providing an opportunity to catch fish and make great memories.

The captain will take you fishing for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Sheepshead, Pompano, Red Snapper, Cobia, King and Spanish Mackerel, and many more species depending on fish migratory patterns and what may be in season at the time of your trip.

Your fishing grounds can be the shallow marshy back bay flats, the crystal clear beaches, and the nearby offshore reefs based on seasons and migratory fish patterns. Please note that a 15-25% tip is customary. Thank you!
