6 Hour Trip with Capt Will

6 Hour Trip – Bottom/Trolling (AM)5 adults

I’ve owned several boats and fished most of my life. We had a great trip today with Capt Will from Great Escape charters. Will runs a first class operation and a nice boat, we trolled out, caught mackerel and limited out on red snapper. Will and his mate George worked their butts off to keep us on the fish, I’ll definitely book in the future…George was the hardest working mate I’ve ever seen. THANK YOU

    Amazing outing

    3hr trolling trip (Am) • 5 adults

    We had an amazing time on this fishing charter! The action was nonstop, and we caught plenty of Spanish mackerel along with several large jack that put up an incredible fight. The captain knew exactly where to find the fish, and the crew worked hard the entire trip to make sure everyone had a great experience. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help with baiting hooks, landing fish, and making sure everyone was having fun. Their positive attitude and excellent service made the trip even better. If you’re looking for a fun, successful day on the water with a hardworking crew, I highly recommend this charter. We can’t wait to book another trip!

    Fishing with Will

    5hr bottom /trolling pm in • 5 adults

    Our family has fished in a lot of places in the world but yesterday with Captain Will and First Mate Jake was one of the most fun experiences! This was our first time to Orange Beach and definitely a memorable one. There was never a dull moment and never a point where we weren't catching. We were catching the largest Beeliners I have seen and even pulling up 2 at a time! We caught our limit in about 1 1/2 hours and then went on the hunt for Triggers. Captain Will consistently put us on the fish and our arms are sore today from reeling all afternoon! First Mate Jake was very knowledgeable about the area and local fishing and was quick with the bait and taking off the fish. Would definitely recommend and we're hoping to be back soon!

    6 hr trolling/bottom fishing

    6hr bottom/trolling (am) • 4 adults • 1 child

    The trip started out a little rough with an engine overheating before we made it out of the pass. Captain Will made the decision to turn around and see if he could diagnose the issue. He quickly found the issue was a bad water pump. He had one delivered and put on by the time we could go grab breakfast. We were out on the water catching fish in no time! Thank you!!! Captain Will and the crew will do whatever it takes to get you out on the water and making memories!

    Awesome experience

    6 Hour Trip – Red Snapper (AM) • 3 adults • 1 child

    We did the 6hr snapper charter, and had a fantastic experience. Will was able to put us right on top of the fish, and John was amazing with my 11 year old son. He went out of his way to show him the ropes, and stayed with him for every catch. It allowed me to just fish, which wasn’t what I expected. I’d highly recommend this charter. We’d love to do it again.

    Great fishing trip

    Great experience! Captain Will and crew were great. Caught Mackerel then took the fish to Doc’s and they cooked them for us. Best fish ever! We look forward to coming back!
