“We don’t offer the best price. We offer the best experience.” Captain Bill Willis’s motto rings true: he has grown a reputation for providing productive fishing trips with high catch rates aboard top quality vessels. His extremely large and loyal circle of repeat customers would not hesitate to agree that his trips are worth every penny.

The boats belonging to Lost Bay Guide Service have the best and most up to date tools for the job. The new 24’ Skeeter is equipped with Lowrance HDS touch screen electronics as well as a GPS and VHF radio to assist the captain with putting you on fish.

Whether you’re planning to fish inshore or offshore, this boat will provide a comfortable, dry ride. All fishing equipment will be provided on the trip and consists of Star and Key Largo custom spinning rods with Shimano Stradic reels and Skeet Reese casting rods with Johnny Morris Signature series reels.

Inshore trips will involve fishing for Redfish, Trout, Snapper, Flounder, Mackerel, and Grouper. Capt. Bill covers the area from Pensacola, Florida, to Mobile Bay, Alabama and always keeps a close eye on where the fish are biting in the area. Offshore charters travel up to nine miles out to target Snapper, Grouper, Triggerfish, Flounder, Sheepshead, Mackerel, and Grouper.

Capt. Bill is an IGFA certified captain who is a member of the Coastal Conservation Association and the Orange Beach Fishing Association. He has fished professionally on the IFA Redfish Tour, using the extensive knowledge that he has acquired over 25 years fishing in the area.

With two boys of his own, Capt. Bill is passionate about teaching young anglers how to get the most out of each fishing trip. Don’t hesitate to bring your kids with you and make some amazing new family memories!

The fleet consists of four Captains: Capt. Bill, Capt. Noah, Capt Clay and Capt. Gavin. All three have a lot of knowledge and experience to share with you, so make sure to book today for a trip of a lifetime!

Great first experience!
SHARK TRIP on October 15, 20253 adults
We had a great first-time fishing trip with Captain Jonathan and Bobby! My 13-year-old wanted to catch a shark, and they made it happen—she reeled in four small ones and had the best time. Both guys were super patient, helpful, and made the experience fun for all of us. We only caught one fish this time, but that’s just how it goes sometimes, and we’re already hoping to book again with the same crew to go after some bigger sharks next time! One tip for future guests: it’s better to pay the captain directly instead of paying everything (including tip) through the app—I didn’t realize that and felt bad when I had to show proof of payment. Overall, great trip and highly recommend Captain Jonathan and Bobby for a fun day on the water!

SHARK TRIP on September 5, 20252 adults
We had an absolutely incredible day on the water with Captain Clay! He was not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly knowledgeable about the local waters. We felt completely safe and confident in his hands, which was especially important for a trip that included shark fishing. Captain Clay is a true pro—he knew exactly where to find the fish. We reeled in an impressive variety, including red snapper and a lizard fish, but the real highlight was the sharks! We were thrilled to catch a hammerhead and a blacktip shark. To top it all off, Captain Clay expertly processed the blacktip shark for us to take home, and we even got to keep the jaw as a souvenir. We can’t recommend Captain Clay enough for a fun, safe, and exciting fishing trip!

Great Time!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on October 12, 20251 adult
I had a great time! Captain Johnathan and Mate Bobby were outstanding. I wanted to catch fish and learn about inshore fishing on the Gulf Coast. Captain Johnathan went above and beyond to teach me as much as possible about techniques, currents, tides, etc., all while I was catching Reds and Spanish Mackerel. Both were my kind of guys. Highly recommended. Can't wait to get back!

Familiar but Different
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM) on May 24, 20252 adults
Going into the trip me and my son did not know what to expect, meeting the guider was amazing. They made us feel welcomed showing their hospitality, helped us get into the boat and we got started. My son was familiar with the type of pole, but instead of them getting annoyed they offered to teach him and by the end of the trip he had learned. When catching the fish the tour guide was calm and was honestly a great guy to be around. We fished in Arkansas where we’re from, but deep sea fishing was different experience I would recommend to anyone.

Captain Jake was a real joy
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM) on October 8, 20252 adults
We had a great first time salt water fishing with Jake putting us on the fish! Jake was excellent walking us through how to catch the fish. We caught what we set out looking for and more. I would give the experience a 10/10 rating and recommend them highly.
