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.

    Fantastic time with a great captain and crew.

    4/Hr/Nearshore/Or/InshoreRigs/Am on September 18, 2026 • 2 adults

    My wife and I had booked this trip as an anniversary trip. The day we were scheduled to go the water was very rough so Randy ( the captain ) suggested that we go the next afternoon which we did. Alot of charters would not have offered that. The next day way gorgeous weather and Randy out us on fish the whole afternoon. My wife actually grew tired of fishing but kept going just to please me. We couldn’t get the fish in dast enough. We cannot say enough about this trip. If your going fish aroung Gulf Shores you cannot go wrong by booking with Due South. David Predmore

    such an AMAZING experience

    2 Hour/Pm/Saltwater/Intro/Inshore/ on March 7, 2026 • 2 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😄

The Boat was excellent, well maintained, engins quite and the ride as comfortable as conditions allowed. The fishing was active and we caught our limits... I highly recommend this experience and charter company....

    Nothing But The Best

    4 HR/Nearshore/Red/Snapper/Reefs/Pm on June 24, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Randy and Laci are incredible. If you want to go fishing near Gulf Shores, look no further. They had everything we needed, making the trip super easy. They were also helpful and encouraging for us beginners. we caught 8 Red Snapper keepers, tons of smaller ones, and a triggerfish. An absolute blast. We will be back no doubt.

    Great trip with a great captain!

    4/Hr/Nearshore/Or/InshoreRigs/Am on June 10, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 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, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 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!

    Bad weather

    4/Hr/Nearshore/Or/InshoreRigs/Am on December 29, 2025 • 2 adults

    Weather was too rough on our scheduled day, so Randy reached out several days in advance to let is know that we would have to reschedule or cancel. He was super easy to work with and helped us find a calmer day when we were able to get on the water with him. We were so glad we were able to reschedule! Everyone in our group had an amazing trip. Fishing was slow at first, but Randy worked hard checking spot after spot until he found us good fishing.

    Awessome trip!!!

    4 Hr/StatewaterRed/Snapper/Reefs/Am on July 4, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

    It was our first salt water fishing trip ever. The captain and his first mate was so helpful. We limited out pretty quickly on red snapper. We had such a great time fishing with Due South. I would highly recommend anyone for this fishing charter.

    Great day on the water

    3 Hour/Inshore/ Bay/Rigs/Pm on April 23, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Randy reached out to us the day before our scheduled trip saying that the weather for the following day wasn't going to be the best. He gladly rescheduled for a better day. Lacy was our captain and she helped us find fish. She was very knowledgeable, helpful, polite, and just a nice person to spend an afternoon with. We will definitely book with them again!
