I booked this excursion for my family from ages 6 all the way up to grand parents. This was a great time for all. The entire trip had a laid back, intimate feel and we were well taken care of by Captain Scott and Gage. The description of the trip was accurate so we can well prepared with any snacks and drinks we needed. Scott and Gage were knowledgeable, fun to talk to, and made sure we went where the fish were. We hit our limit and after Gage cleaned our catch, we took plenty home to feed us... More

We had a blast fishing with Captain Seth and his deckhand Gage. They were great with the kiddos and were quick to put us on the fish. We caught everything from Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Bonita and even a nice sized Barracuda. The biggest catches of the day were a couple of huge Amberjack that were unfortunately out of season, but a lot of fun to reel in anyway. We will definitely be booking another charter on RipTide with Captain Seth the next time we visit Gulf Shores.

We caught Spanish mackerel everyone in our group was more than satisfied HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TRIP on a tight time frame it was AWESOME!!!!!

Two families embarked on the Gulf for a day of fishing… we pulled in MANY Red Snapper! It was so nice to have all the necessary equipment & knowledge from Paul (our guide) to bait & remove our catch as we got to do the ‘fun part’ of reeling them in!! We opted for the four hour excursion, it was just enough for our crew ranging in age 7 years to 14 years. We packed a lunch & made great memories!!

We had a great experience on Riptide. Fishing was slow to start out, but listening to the radio chatter all the boats were having a rough go. Sounded like the hurricane that hit the gulf a few days earlier was throwing things off their usual behavior. Captain was persistent trying different spots and we finally got on it. Had a great finish to our trip. If I had to do it over again, I’d probably do a 6 hr instead of a 4 hr.
