Alex and his wife Jessica live in Fort Walton Beach and enjoy days on the water as much as possible. Over the years of fishing around Destin, Alex has developed an expertise of the area. From every corner of the Bay, to far offshore, he knows these waters like the back of his hand. Alex is also a proficent Trombone player, and you might catch him playing with the Downbeat Jazz Orchestra around town! His greatest passion is teaching and sharing fishing with others.

Family friendly Gulf Fishing Adventure!

VERIFIED

Captain Alex took myself, my wife and my two oldest kids out to target Red Snapper today in the Gulf and wow… what a fantastic guide! He was so good with the kids, made sure they were entertained and well taken care of the whole time. He was diligent in finding the perfect spots to put us on some really nice fish. We had a great day and will most certainly be using Intentional Fishing for future fishing adventures!
