There was so many great things about our charter it’s hard to pick out a few.  Captain very friendly, sense of humor, truly wanted to give a welcoming environment and experience, the deck hand same. They were both chatty , but without feeling like you were just avoiding awkward silence.  The boat was great. The AC cabin was a game changer when going fishing with younger children (9,13). They could escape the heat when needed and engage in the action when they had cooled off.  Of course c the most important part! Could they get us on the fish?  YES. I’ve had about a dozen charters in my life, but non could top this.  We did the troll/bottom fishing 6 hour. Perfect length.  Even though we could have been back to the dock in half that time, cause the Captain put us on the honey hole and we limited out on big and bigger red snapper in about 1 hour.  I say an hour but it was probably quicker.  But they didn’t stop here. We just did an extended trolling portion of the trip and caught another 12-16 fish on the way back in.  Over all this was one of the greatest days on the water I’ve had.  Everyone had a great time. We ranged from 9 years old to 65.  And I’d book again in this boat and this captain in a heart beat.  Matter fact I’d probably plan my trip around his availability, it was that good.  Do yourself a favor and book your trip , even if it was only half as good as ours it would be a great day!!!  Thank you for making core memories for my two sons.

We had an amazing morning 6-hour fishing charter with Sure Shot Fishing Charters out of Orange Beach! Our group included 3 adults and 3 kids (all under 11), and from start to finish, Captain Mike and his crew made it a great experience.

Captain Mike called us before the trip to walk through what to expect, review the fishing and weather conditions, and let us know what to bring. That personal touch really helped us prepare and get excited.

The fishing didn’t disappoint! We landed several beautiful Red Snappers and even a Tuna. When the first couple of spots didn’t produce as many fish as Captain Mike wanted, he didn’t hesitate to keep moving and working hard to find a better location. We were even competing with dolphins at times who were snatching bait and fish, but Captain Mike kept us on the move until he got us on a hot spot. His persistence paid off.

Our deckhand was absolutely incredible—super knowledgeable, patient, and great with both the adults and especially the kids. She explained the gear, gave helpful tips on technique, and made sure the young anglers felt confident and helped them land their big fish.

All in all, it was a memorable trip for our whole family. If you’re looking for a fun, professional, and family-friendly fishing experience in Orange Beach, we highly recommend Sure Shot Fishing Charters!

Great Productive 6hr Trip! Captain Mike navigated us to several spots full of biting fish!  First Mate Kim was very knowledgeable and was always ahead of us with bait and rigging! Caught our limits and made priceless memories with my son in law, son and grandson! Looking forward to booking our future trips with Sure Shot!  Thanks Again!

Captain Mike and deck hand Brad was fantastic. He would move the boat to keep us on fish instead of Justin’s in one spot. Put us on some big red snapper along with a few other species we caught. Brad was also fantastic as he kept us baited and rods in the water. He took time with my grandson who loves fishing and showed him how to tie knots and other things. Stuff like that makes the trip for me

Had a great morning fishing with Capt Mike and his wonderful deckhand Kim! They were both very knowledgeable and explained the process of everything we were doing. We quickly caught our limit of Red Snapper with a bonus Red Grouper and had plenty of time to troll back in and catch a few Spanish Mackerel and a small Tuna! Great day on the water and looking forward to fishing with Sure Shot again!!
