Uniquely Coastal Charters
Gulf Shores has a fish with your name on it, so let Uniquely Coastal Charters help you catch it! Your guide for the day is Captain Tristan, which allows you to benefit from years of angling experience.
These waters are home to Redfish, Red Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Bonito, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, Amberjack, Almaco Jack, Vermilion Snapper, Lane Snapper, Mahi Mahi, and more, depending on the time of year. You'll target your catch by spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks to keep up those energy levels!
Your boat for the day is a 23' Sportsman 232 center console that holds up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
It's always wise to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Unforgettable Family Fishing Adventure!
Unforgettable Family Fishing Adventure! Our recent fishing charter was the highlight of our family vacation, and we can't recommend it enough! From start to finish, the captain went above and beyond to make sure everyone on board had an incredible time. He was absolutely fantastic with the kids, showing incredible patience and enthusiasm as he helped them reel in their catches. It was clear he genuinely wanted everyone to succeed, and he worked tirelessly to ensure we were all catching fish. Beyond just the fishing, he also made sure we took time to appreciate the stunning beauty of the bay, pointing out interesting sights along the way. The entire experience was wonderfully relaxing and pleasant, thanks to the captain's kind and helpful nature. We're so grateful for the awesome experience and the lasting memories he helped us create. If you're looking for a top-notch fishing charter that caters to all ages and skill levels, this is the one!

4 Hour – Nearshore/Inshore Mid Day
Saftey first
We had to call an audible on the water due to weather and rough seas. We originally were going off shore to fish for red snapper. We headed back inshore completely unequiped but the captain and deckhand made a quick pit stop switched to lighter tackle and rods. In no time at all we were on fish. Although it wasn't our target fish we had an amazing time. Great people to be with and Captain Triston as a young man has a great future ahead of him! Don't let his youth fool you he knows what he's doing.

Excellent family run charter
We had a very nice two hour evening fishing trip with Tristan. From the original booking to cleaning our catch, Uniquely Coastal was on point and professional. We were able to customize our trip with no problems and the captain was always quick to reply to messages before the trip. Tristan knows the waters and put us on fish immediately and in several different spots. We look forward to fishing with him again next year!

Awesome Trip!!
We had a great time! We caught lots of Red Snapper and Spanish Mackerel. Couldn’t have asked for a better time. Tristan and The crew were well prepared and always kept the hooks baited and ready. At the end, he skinned and cut the fish so we were able to fry it later that night. Definitely a bucket list trip and highly recommend!! Worth every penny. Absolutely amazing time.
