Great Mid-October Trip and Caught Lots of Fish

6 Hour Trip - 1:30 PM7 adults3 children

As our group continues to grow, we had to look at bigger boats this year. Southern Star was just what we needed, and, since we won’t outgrow their boat, we look forward to many years of fishing with them. Gavin and Andrew were fantastic, kept our boys (10, 11, and 15) on fish all day, were entertaining and enjoyable to fish with, and sent us home with a happy crew and with more fish than we have ever caught. We limited out on triggerfish and moved on to catching a mess of vermillion snapper, one big Lane snapper, and a variety of other fish. The 6 hour trip was perfect for our group, and I look forward to booking again soon. If you are in the area and want to catch some fish, give these guys a call. You won’t be disappointed.

    Great fishing experience!

    4 Hour Trip AM • 8 adults

    we did just a 4-hour trip, Captain and deckhand were ready to go when we got there a little early. They found us some fish by trolling and bottom fishing. there were 7 of us, we all caught several fish and had a great time!! Monkey was our deck hand, he was awesome! he definitely made our trip a success with his great attitude, conversation and of course helping us with the fishing! He expertly turned our catch into fillets and steaks. Thanks for the great trip! was a highlight of our trip to Gulf Shores for a family reunion Jim

    A Reel Good Time!

    6 Hour Trip • 6 adults • 1 child

    What an incredible day out on the water! We had an amazing deep sea fishing trip targeting red snapper, and it did not disappoint. The captain and crew were knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great experience. They knew exactly where to find the fish, kept us on them all day, and were always there to help with baiting hooks, landing fish, and making sure everyone felt comfortable. The boat was clean, well-maintained, and the entire trip was organized from start to finish. If you’re looking for an unforgettable deep sea fishing adventure and want to catch some beautiful red snapper, I highly recommend this charter. We made great memories, caught plenty of fish, and can’t wait to book another trip. Five stars all the way!

    Great Trip

    6 Hour Trip • 8 adults

    Captain and deckhand truly were great. Me and some guys went down for a 6hr trip and with some storms in the area we pushed our trip from the morning to the afternoon. The captain was adamant that we have a good time because he knew it was going to be rough out in the gulf and done everything he could to get us on fish. Deckhand Jay was top notch in keeping us fishing the whole time- really worked his tail off for us. Great experience had by all of us

    Best of the Best

    8 Hour Trip • 7 adults • 2 children

    Where do I start. the captain and deck hand cool AF. dealt with my multi aged kids, little girl that neeses lits of help, and were patient when I got a little tipsy. We found fish on an off day out of season and killed it. we ended up with bags and bags and bags of filets. Well priced and even worked with us adjusting schedule for a bad weather cold snap. the boat itself was fantastic. Warm, good tunes. Convenient clean bathroom, large ice chest we were able to pack with our favorite beverages. this boating experience is a memory Ill cherish with my family for ever. i cant say enough good things, but I'll conclude by saying everything was just simply perfect down to the little details.
