Come fish the Alabama Gulf Coast aboard a 25’ World Cat with Captain Gage Swann. Whether you’re looking for a productive half-day Red Snapper trip or a serious offshore adventure, these trips are built around maximizing your time on the fish.
6-Hour State-Water Red Snapper Trip
Depart at 6:30 AM, catch fresh live bait, then head straight to productive shallow-water wrecks and structure. Staying in state waters means shorter runs and more time with lines in the water.
A Minn Kota trolling motor keeps the boat positioned over the fish, while quality Penn, Shimano, and Daiwa tackle gives you the gear needed to get the job done. This trip is a great option for families, first-time anglers, and experienced fishermen looking for a fun, productive morning on the Gulf.
Full-Day Offshore Trip
For anglers ready to go farther, the full-day offshore trip offers the chance to target Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Wahoo, Dolphin, and Swordfish.
This trip is limited to just 3 anglers, giving everyone more room, more rod time, and a hands-on offshore experience. Depending on conditions, you may learn live-baiting techniques for Yellowfin Tuna, daytime swordfishing, how to manage a 5-bait trolling spread, and how to fight big winter Tuna on spinning gear.
The World Cat is powered by twin Yamaha 150s, giving you a capable offshore platform without the cost of chartering a large sportfishing boat.
We leave early and return late, giving us the flexibility to travel where the fish are and make the most of the day.
The charter rate for Full-Day Offshore covers the trip, with fuel added based on actual consumption.
Estimated fuel use: approximately 100–120 gallons.
If you want more time fishing, quality equipment, local knowledge, and the opportunity to experience both nearshore and true offshore Gulf fishing, book your trip and come see what Alabama’s waters have to offer.

We had an absolutely amazing time on this fishing charter! The boat was clean, everything felt safe and well taken care of, and the whole experience was a blast for the entire family. The kids had an especially great time, and it was the perfect family-friendly adventure. The crew was friendly, helpful, and made sure everyone had a great experience. We would definitely do it again and highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun, safe, and memorable fishing trip!
Thank you very much for the great feed back! We are looking forward to fishing with yall again soon
The captain really knows what he is doing and is very respectful towards the guests. He doesn’t treat you bad if you don’t know much about fishing he just tries to help in any way. The boat rides great. You will catch fish if you fish with Gage. I have been fishing with him for many years through charters and some without. My biggest tuna, snapper, and grouper have been fishing with Gage.
sander thank your for the kind words we are looking forward to fishing with you again
We had a great day fishing for Grouper and Tile fish. The conditions were perfect, Capt Gage and crew were patient, kind and accommodated our every need, and hearing about their past fishing adventures added a unique flare to the day. The boat was comfortable, the music energizing, and the fishing was a blast. I look forward to next time!
thank you so much for your review we look forward to fishing with you again
Our family takes a charter almost every year and this was by far the best trip to date with Captain Gage. Top quality boat, gear and people plus Capt. knows the gulf like the back of his hand. Been on several different charters and couldn’t recommend this crew enough
