Captain Patrick Gallagher is a great example of how life-long passion for fishing can turn into a full-time job. He spent every moment he could spare on the water and in 2010 he became a professional angler. Capt. Patrick won several tournaments including the Dauphin Island Rodeo and Gulf Coast Slam in the Flounder and Speckled Trout category. These days, he loves running charters and meeting new people.

    An Amazing Trip!

    3 Hour (7AM)6 adults1 child

    First of all, weather was a bit of an issue the week we vacationed in Gulf Shores, however, Captain Patrick was easy to communicate with, very reassuring, flexible, and open about our options! We had 6 men/young men on this charter and they all want to do it again! Captain Patrick was funny and had a cool personality! Captain Patrick did amazing with the diverse levels of experience and ages! We booked a 3hr charter and it wasn’t enough for our group! We will be rebooking with Trick’em Charters! Highly recommend!

    Fantastic Trip, Amazing Luck

    3 Hour Trip (10:30AM)2 adults

    Captain Mike was extremely nice, overall a great guy. He was extremely knowledgeable on the water, fishing hot spots, cutrents, etc. We were able to consistently catch spanish mackrel, and speckled sea trout. For a rougher day on the water we had a fantastic time! I’d say if your children don’t get bored this would be a fantastic trip for families and people of all ages! All I’d reccomend is plenty of sunscreen, and sea bands, or dramamine for those who can’t channel their inner Jack Sparrow :) Overall highly reccomend trick em’ fishing, for the price, catch rates, and experience!

    Great time!

    3 Hour Trip (10:30AM)4 adults

    My family and I had an amazing experience with captain Patrick. We got exactly what we were looking for. I told him ahead of time that we were wanting to catch good fish to cook up while on our vacation and that’s what we got. With four of us fishing our max limit was 24 fish and we caught 20. He took us right out and was prepared with live bait ready to go. We started hauling in speckled trout in no time. Great day!!

    50+ fish caught by 4 people

    4 Hour Trip (PM)4 adults

    I couldn't imagine having a better time then we did on this trip. Captain Patrick was fun, clearly knowledgeable, easy to get to know, and by the time we left it felt like we had all been friends for years just hanging out. it was myself, my two brother in-laws. and my 16 year old son on the trip. Pat took the time to get to know each of us and after meeting us for 20 seconds, called us by name from that point forward. He had the boat ready, rods prepared and the day mapped out like a pro with an extra rod set in case some one (not me of course) tangled their line or something of that nature. He was prepared so our fishing never stopped. Each one of us caught at least into the teens and by the end of it we all felt like the worlds greatest anglers. Overall, we couldn't rate this trip any higher and wouldn't use anyone else for future trips. Here is a link for anyone to check the trip out. https://gopro.com/v/e51b07a4-cac6-4d28-861b-c2c601eb9059

    Tough conditions…still caught em!!

    3 Hour (7AM)4 adults2 children

    On a tough, windy day Captain Patrick Gallagher was still able to put us on some great fish! The guy knows his stuff for sure. I was so happy to see my wife and two boys(14y, 11y) have such a great time reeling in some nice speckled trout! I highly recommend Captain Patrick Gallagher at Trick Em Charters. Such a down to earth guy and a lot of fun to fish with! It was like fishing with my buddies back home!! We loved it!
