Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask the captain before the trip if you would like to use artificial baits as well.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
Some essentials to bring are sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is not allowed.

Clinton CourtneyMember since 20265.03 hour fishing trip with Captain Aaron
3 Hour – Inshore Fishing Trip on August 15, 2026We had an absolutely amazing experience on our very first fishing charter in Gulf Shores! I was looking for something more personal and authentic rather than a commercialized experience, and Aaron with Tangled Lines exceeded our expectations. He put us right on the fish and was incredibly attentive to both me and my son throughout the trip. We caught fish, made some unforgettable memories, and even made a new friend along the way! Great price, great experience, and great memories. We’ll definitely be back and will be looking up Aaron on our next visit! Aaron and Tangled Lines, thank you so much for an awesome day on the water! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! 🎣
