Book your next trip with Rip-N-Lipz Fishing Charters and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Gulf Shores for more. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Mike knows them forwards and back.
These waters are known for Redfish, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and more – with any luck, they’ll make your reel scream.
On the day of your trip you’re likely to bottom fish using light tackle.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!
Capt. Mike welcomes you aboard a 24’ Center console with a capacity for 4 passengers.
Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.
There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now, come aboard with Rip-N-Lipz Fishing Charters and get hooked!

Captain Mike has a great charter service. He did a wonderful job with my 12 year old son and his cousin. We moved around to a number of fishing locations in the gulf searching for fish. This kept the boys entertained with not only fishing, but with riding in the boat and looking at the oil rigs. When the fishing slowed down and the temperature went up, the boys wanted to take a dip in the gulf. Captain Mike even joined in the fun by jumping in the water.

3 Hour Inshore/Nearshore (10 AM)
You can't always predict the weather. Coming out of the bay the West wind made the water choppy. The hope was that the waves would not pick up and we could snag some Spanish Mackerel. The weather did not cooperate and once we got to the rig and tied off the waves grew faster and bigger. With the weather like it was the trip back was much longer and cut into our fishing time. Captain Mike and his crew tried their best but sometimes mother nature has other plans. When I come back to Fort Morgan, I will defiantly give Captain Mike another chance, but I will also know to watch the weather and communicate with Mike a little better before setting off. GEAUX TIGERS!
