If fishing in gulf shores is on your bucket list, look no further than Due South Fishing. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Randy can tell you all about them.

You're likely to go after Cobia, Gag Grouper, Jack Crevalle, King Mackerel, Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, Red Snapper, Spadefish, Gray Triggerfish, and more, depending on the time of year. On the day of your trip, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available; otherwise, you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Capt. Randy will bring you aboard a 28 foot Triton center console that holds up to 5 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Randy will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the Captain. It's always wise to bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Due South Fishing.

great captain and everyone caught fish
4/Hr/Inshore/Nearshore/Rigs/Am on June 1, 20263 adults
Captain Randy definitely knows how to get you on the fish. The wind and waves were coming in from a system moving in and we had to adjust the plan. Then it was game on. Everyone caught fish. Captain gets the gear set up and makes any adjustments on the gear as needed so all you have to do is catch the fish. I will definitely book again the next time we come back to the beach. if you see an opening, grab it before its gone. i wish i had booked a second trip for the same week. highly recommend.

such an AMAZING experience
2 Hour/Pm/Saltwater/Intro/Inshore/ on March 7, 20262 adults
Choosing Due South as our charter was the best thing we did on our trip to Gulf Shores. Captain Randy and his first mate Lacey were awesome. We really loved the fact that it was family owned and operated! they were very down to earth and made the whole trip. A very wonderful experience for us.. we even caught some fish and got to see the Dolphins, which was a major bonus. their hospitality and professionalism it’s five stars. definitely going to book with them when we come back.! and we love that we got to meet Sandy, too😄

4/Hr/Inshore/Nearshore/Rigs/Am on June 10, 20263 adults1 child
Captain Randy took 3 adults and 1 teenager. 3 out of 4 of us had never fished. Captain Randy gave the rookies some instruction and one of them caught the first and biggest red snapper (#12). We had a great trip and everyone caught red snappers. Thanks captain Randy, will give you a call on my next trip to gulf shores.

Awesome Trip!
3 Hour/Inshore/Nearshore/Rigs/Am. on March 9, 20261 adult2 children
We can't say enough good stuff about this charter. The captain and his daughter worked their tails off to get us on fish. They are the nicest people you will ever meet and are absolutely fantastic with kids. Other than traveling to the fishing spots, you never have any down time waiting on anything. They keep hooks and bait on all the time. They even let the kids help with the fish. We will definitely be back to fish with them every chance we get. They are awesome!
