Captain Randy definitely knows how to get you on the fish. The wind and waves were coming in from a system moving in and we had to adjust the plan. Then it was game on. Everyone caught fish. Captain gets the gear set up and makes any adjustments on the gear as needed so all you have to do is catch the fish. I will definitely book again the next time we come back to the beach.

if you see an opening, grab it before its gone. i wish i had booked a second trip for the same week. highly recommend.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience, especially given the tough fishing conditions we were up against. From the moment we stepped on the boat, Captain Laci went above and beyond to make sure our trip was not only successful, but genuinely enjoyable.

Even when the fish weren’t cooperating, she never stopped working — changing spots, trying different techniques, and doing everything possible to put us in the best position to catch something. Her determination, knowledge, and positive attitude made all the difference. You could tell she truly cared about giving us the best experience, not just going through the motions.

What really stood out was how she kept the energy up and made sure we were having fun the entire time. She was patient, encouraging, and incredibly personable — making the trip feel relaxed and enjoyable, no matter what the conditions were.

At the end of the day, it wasn’t just about the fish — it was about the experience, and Captain Laci absolutely delivered. We’d book again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch charter with a captain who genuinely gives it her all.

Choosing Due South as our charter was the best thing we did on our trip to Gulf Shores. Captain Randy and his first mate Lacey were awesome. We really loved the fact that it was family owned and operated! they were very down to earth and made the whole trip. A very wonderful experience for us.. we even caught some fish and got to see the Dolphins, which was a major bonus. their hospitality and professionalism it’s five stars. definitely going to book with them when we come back.! and we love that we got to meet Sandy,  too😄

Captain Randy took 3 adults and 1 teenager. 3 out of 4 of us had never fished. Captain Randy gave the rookies some instruction and one of them caught the first and biggest red snapper (#12). We had a great trip and everyone caught red snappers. Thanks captain Randy, will give you a call on my next trip to gulf shores.

We can’t say enough good stuff about this charter. The captain and his daughter worked their tails off to get us on fish. They are the nicest people you will ever meet and are absolutely fantastic with kids. Other than traveling to the fishing spots, you never have any down time waiting on anything. They keep hooks and bait on all the time. They even let the kids help with the fish. We will definitely be back to fish with them every chance we get. They are awesome!
