Lost Bay Guide Service "Catch Fish Guarantee"
+6Lost Bay Guide Service will take you on an adventure of a lifetime on the waters of Alabama! Captain Bill Willis has grown a reputation for providing productive fishing trips with high catch rates aboard top quality vessels. His fishing charter’s goal is to exceed clients’ expectations and provide them with a trip they will remember for years to come.
You’ll fish on board a 24’ Skeeter center console boat. The boat is powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine that can get you to the fishing grounds fast. The trolling motor by MinnKota will serve you well when targeting fearful inshore fish.
Capt. Bill will provide you with all the fishing equipment – Star and Key Largo custom spinning rods with Shimano Stradic reels, and Skeet Reese casting rods with Johnny Morris Signature series reels. After a successful day, he’ll be happy to clean and fillet your catch for you to take home and have a taste.
You’ll explore the inshore areas from Pensacola to Mobile Bay or up to 9 miles offshore in the same area. If you decide to fish inshore you can target Redfish, Trout, Snapper, Flounder, Sheepshead, Sharks, Mackerel, Grouper. Offshore charters usually target Snapper, Triggerfish, Shark, Cobia, and Mackerel.
Capt. Bill is an IGFA certified captain who is a member of the Coastal Conservation Association and the Orange Beach Fishing Association. With over 25 years of experience fishing the waters surrounding Pensacola, Perdido Key, Orange Beach, and Gulf Shores, Capt Bill and his team of Captains have the confidence to offer the area’s only “Catch Fish Guarantee”.
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!

JAKE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
5Hour Offshore Catch Fish Guarantee on August 9, 2025
Me and my husband came for our 2 year anniversary and were very excited to fish for our deep sea fishing trip! While the weather seemed to not want us to go offshore we stayed inshore and he made it the absolute best fishing trip! Jake was so kind always helping and setting us up for success! We had so much fun we got home and immediately passed out into a coma! I would recommend him to anyone beginner all the way to a seasoned fish veteran! We will ABSOLUTELY be booking with him very soon! We caught 2 sharks and some other fish! Thank you for the friendship and the wonderful memories on your boat!

Great guy! Keeps his word!
SHARK TRIP on July 25, 2025
He promised us fish but today, the fish just weren’t biting! Captain kept trying and trying to no avail but at the end of the trip, he told my son and I we could come back anytime in the next 365 days and he’d take us out again for free!!! Not many captains would do that! And he wouldn’t even take my tip money since we didn’t catch many fish. Great, honest guy who did his absolute best to help us.

Jake was an excellent Captain!!! He put us on fish right away and was very open with the possibilities of catching inshore versus offshore. He was a great teacher and guide and helped teach my entire crew things about saltwater fishing!!! I will definitely book with him again when I come down!

We booked this trip for my husband's 50th birthday. He and my sons had a blast with Captain Clay. He was very knowledgeable in the type of text they were looking for. In the end we came home with a lot of shark steaks! This was our second outing with this company and we highly recommend
