Murco Charters is excited to meet you and create unforgettable memories with you and your family. Captain Cade is the owner and operator of Murco Charters. He is a licensed 100-ton captain who has been fishing these waters for as long as he can remember. In addition to inshore fishing, Captain Cade has competed on the Blue Marlin Tournament circuit, earning several top-three finishes. With years of inshore and nearshore fishing experience, he will do everything he can to put you on the fish. Captain Cade operates a custom 26' Gause Built center console. The boat offers more room than a typical bay boat and features a flat deck for added comfort and safety. Its high sides provide a secure and comfortable ride, while its design still allows Captain Cade to fish in less than a foot of water when needed. For added comfort during the ride, the boat is equipped with bean bags, as well as a tower that gives Captain Cade an elevated view to help locate the fish you're targeting. This unique setup gives Murco Charters an edge on the water. The boat is fully equipped with top-of-the-line Garmin electronics, including a fish finder and GPS. All required safety equipment is provided, including adult and child-sized life jackets, an EPIRB, and a VHF radio. Captain Cade uses Shimano gear and custom rods on every charter to provide a high-quality fishing experience. His goal is to make sure every trip is safe, comfortable, and, most importantly, memorable.

    Great Red Snapper Trip!

    4 Hr – Inshore/Nearshore Trip • 3 adults • 2 children

    We were happy that we chose Murco Charters and Captain Cade for our trip while we were here on vacation! We had some great action catching red snapper. He put us on some good spots that were holding nice size snapper. He was great and patient with my boys (ages 6 and 11). They had a blast! We’ll be going back out with Captain Cade the next time we visit Gulf Shores!

    Hook, Line & Sinker

    4 Hr – Inshore/Nearshore Trip • 2 adults

    We had an amazing time. We came to catch red snapper and within the first hour we had our limit. We would have had it sooner but it appears that a shark wanted our biggest snapper instead. He took our fish..hook, line and sinker. Every spot Cade took us to, there were an abundant of fish to catch. We even caught a tagged red. It was an awesome day!

    3 Hr – Shark Trip - 3:30 PM • 3 adults

    Our family had an awesome time while out on the water with Captain Cade!! We were very happy with our entire experience. We caught a variety of fish while on our trip; Tarpon, Spotted trout, Hard Head Catfish, and numerous Spinner Sharks, and Atlantic Sharpnose Sharks!! He even cut, cleaned, and prepped our keepers for us! We absolutely recommend booking with Captain Cade as he was very friendly, knowledgeable, and has a genuine passion for what he does.

    Exactly what we were looking for!

    2 Hr – Beat the Heat • 5 adults

    Captain Cade made our fishing trip simple and relaxing with his knowledge, experience, and demeanor. Our family of 5 had not fished from a boat before, let alone in the gulf so it was an experience not to be forgotten anytime soon. We're already ready for another round!

What's biting with Murco Charters | Captain Cade – Gulf Shores in Gulf Shores

The weather becomes cooler, with cold fronts changing up the fishing. On days that aren't affected by the infamous 'Blue Norther,' you can have a productive day bottom fishing or targeting Speckled Trout and Bull Reds.
