    Captain David was amazing

    2 Hour Trip - 12:00 PM2 adults

    Needless to say I was skeptical about booking this trip because it was way cheaper than anything else I saw in this area. Glad i did, Captain David was great briefly talk to him before we got on the boat him being young for a fishing captain, he plainly staited fishing was his passion.He didnt disappoint, put us on fish at first location speckled trout. then again at 2nd location. Told David i would like to catch a small shark. Boom he said i know where we could get one. brought 2 to the boat before they cut line and landed the third all with in 20 minutes. Wll Definitely book again when down here. Honest review Benji from Tennessee

    To The Rescue!!!

    2 Hour Trip – Intro (2:00PM)4 adults

    Big shout out to Capt. David and the Off the Hook fam. They come through when other plans fall through. A true last minute trip, and even though it was last minute OTH were still able to accommodate and provide us with an unforgettable experience. Def asking for Capt David. Explains procedures well and talks to you as a person and not at you like a bad ass child. Extremely helpful and professional. He knew what we wanted to catch and he put us on the bte immediately...... IMMEDIATELY! Like soon as I tossed my line in all I could do after that was listening to that drag peel. 10/10 highly recommend and will be booking again 🖊️ 😮‍💨🐟🐟🐟🐟😙🤌🏾 the Best

    Limit Reached, Lines Tight All Day

    6 Hour Bottom Fishing (PM)4 adults

    What an incredible offshore fishing trip out of Gulf Shores, Alabama! From the moment we dropped lines, it was nonstop action. The captain clearly knew exactly where to take us. We were on fish the entire six hours with barely a pause between bites. Our group hit the limit, and it wasn’t by luck. It was a combination of expert guidance, perfect spots, and a crew that kept everything running smoothly. The energy on the boat was great the whole time, with rods bending and everyone reeling something in. Whether you’re experienced or new to fishing, this trip delivered in every way. Miss Jaqlin delivered!

    The Best Captain and Charter!

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore - 12:00 PM4 adults2 children

    We had an incredible trip of a lifetime with Hunter and Off the Hook Charters! Taking kids out on a fishing boat can sometimes be stressful, but Captain Hunter was so patient and made the entire day an absolute breeze. He was great at explaining things and made sure everyone in our family got the thrill of reeling in a fish! ​We lucked out on having an beautiful sunny afternoon and had an amazing haul, bringing in a dozen sheepshead and catching some absolute giant redfish. We caught more fish than all the boats around us combined. After all the action, the ride back was just as magical. We had time to just relax, hang out, and watch dolphins swimming right by the boat. If you are looking for a family-friendly, action-packed, and completely stress-free charter in Gulf Shores, Captain Hunter is your guy!

    Fantastic experience

    10 Hour Trip3 adults

    Captain Dylan put us on honey hole after honey hole all day. We were worried about not catching any amberjack, but as soon as we put our lines in, we were on BIG fish. We’ll absolutely be back and couldn’t be any happier with our experience on Ms.Jaciln

New years fishing

Dec 28, 2025 • Gulf Shores
We’ve had an AMAZING few days on the water thanks to calm seas and beautiful weather! ☀️ We’ve been able to mix it up offshore and inshore, taking full advantage of the extended red snapper season ?? and also putting together some great trips catching sheepshead. We seriously couldn’t have asked for a better week of fishing! As we head into the next few days, cooler air and a north wind will move in ?️❄️, bringing rougher seas. Sunday is shaping up to be the last pretty day to fish the Gulf for a little while before we tuck back into more protected waters. ? In town for New Year’s and looking to go fishing? We can STILL get y’all out on the water! ?? Give us a call or book online and let’s make some memories! Family-friendly • Fun for all ages • Memories that last ❤️

May Fishing

May 19, 2024 • Gulf Shores
A solid week of fishing from Inshore to Offshore. It’s safe to say the bite has been great from both sides of the spectrum. Speckled trout are hot right now in the bay and we can target Amberjack till the end of May. Give Off The Hook Charters a call if you’re interested in either of these trips, we are ready to go fishing #offthehookcharters #ALgulfcoast #offshorefishing #gulfshores #speckledtrout #amberjack #BLiner #bayfishing #bestofbaldwin24 #bestofbaldwin23
