  Great Gulf fishing experience.

  4hr inshore pm on April 1, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

  If you’re looking for a fishing charter that actually delivers results, Bottomed Out Charters with Captain Ken is the one to book. While other boats were coming back empty-handed, Captain Ken consistently put us on fish—it was clear he knew exactly what he was doing. What really stood out, beyond the great catch, was Captain Ken himself. He’s an incredibly nice, down-to-earth guy who makes the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. His extensive knowledge of fishing is obvious in the way he reads the water, adjusts tactics, and helps everyone on board feel confident and involved. Whether you’re experienced or brand new to fishing, you’ll appreciate his patience and expertise. It’s not just about catching fish—it’s about having a great time doing it, and Captain Ken absolutely delivers on both. Highly recommend Bottomed Out Charters if you want a successful and enjoyable day on the water.

  Fantastic Experience

  4hr inshore on March 29, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

  We had an absolutely amazing experience on our fishing charter out of Gulf Shores! From the moment we left the dock, you could tell our captain really knew his stuff—super knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole trip feel effortless and fun. He put us right on the fish, and we were catching in no time! Whether you’re experienced or brand new, he makes sure everyone is comfortable, confident, and having a great time. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and everything was handled professionally. What really stood out was how much the captain genuinely cared about making sure we had the best experience possible. It never felt rushed, and he was patient, helpful, and full of great tips. Hands down one of the best experiences we’ve had in Gulf Shores—we’ll 100% be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, successful day on the water! 🎣

  Great first trip!

  6 Hour Trip – Offshore on June 25, 2026 • 5 adults

  Our family's first offshore fishing trip. The weather forecast kept changing before our trip and Capt Ken communicated with us very well about the situation. We went out as scheduled and had a great 6hr trip. At the first stop we started catching red snapper right away. we caught our limit in a few stops and in time. Boat was 30 ft , fast and stable. Capt was attentive and very helpful to all of us.

  Rough Day of Fishing

  4 Hr Trip - offshore near shore on July 17, 2026 • 4 adults

  high winds and white capping seas made our tip a tough one. We did a 4hr trip for my 2 daughter's 1st trip off-shore and even with the bad conditions and tough fishing they had a great time and want to go again. Capt. Ken did everything possible from changing bait, depth, multiple spots, and even going over our 4hr time to make sure we put fish in the boat. You definitely get your money's worth fishing with this guy.

  Great Trip despite rougher than normal conditions

  6 Hour Trip – Offshore on June 21, 2026 • 5 adults

  Storms and rough seas postponed out trip to the next day. Ken met us next day and was very open about still being rough and provided options if we wanted but we continued. Ken and Jay were exceptionally attentive to our needs and dedicated to get us on fish which they did! Will definitely be back to fish with them again!
