Captain
John Sullens

Member since December 2014 Gulf Shores, United States

Background: Captain John has been fishing with his dad and grandparents since he was probably old enough to hold a fishing pole. He has fished in Key West, Savannah, Georgia, and the Gulf of Mexico, all the way to California, and even Hawaii. The captain enjoys fishing and loves watching people catch fish. He hopes to see you on the water soon. He and his six other captains will make sure you have fun while fishing.
Techniques: Captain John loves to go and catch live bait for his customers so that they have a better chance of catching bigger fish. And it's also an experience for them to watch and help catch their own bait for the fishing trip for the day. The kids always love it when they drag the shrimp net and dolphins come up. The captain likes using live bait drift lining. Free lining with live bait is how you catch the bigger fish!

Good time. Capt. John put us on some fish. Very satisfied with the trip. Sharks, white trout, and decent size catfish. No better way to spend two hours or more. Nephew really liked seeing the shark.

The fish weren’t biting so it was a bit disappointing on that end but we know that happens. John did everything he could to get us on fish and extended our 2 hour trip to almost 3 hours.

Hi Nikki, Thank you for the review. It’s very disappointing to us as well when the fish don’t bite. We take pride in what we do and try our best. Hopefully next time you guys go fishing the bite will be better. Happy Fishing 🎣 Cpt John & Chas
