Wesley ThamesRepeat angler5.0VerifiedNEW8 hr Red Snapper Trip with Kids
8 Hour Offshore • 13 adults • 7 childrenWe had 6 adults and 7 kids on a 8 hour trip. I cant even begin to describe how much fun this trip was. The kids and adults had a great time. We caught plenty of fish including our limit in Red Snapper. I have been on many different trips out of the gulf and this was my favorite. The Captain and deck hard was very knowledgeable and made sure everyone on the boat was comfortable and was always able to fish. Thanks again for a very memorable trip, we will be back for sure.

William Moeller5.0VerifiedAMAZING! Amazing experience! Amazing crew!
6 Hour Offshore • 9 adults • 1 childHighly recommend! The crew was so attentive. Everyone on the trip that wanted to catch a fish, caught a fish. A few of us did not fair well with motion sickness and House,the firstmate, did everything to make them feel more comfortable from bags of ice, providing shade, even providing bean bag chairs to lay in. We had a 4yo in our group and again the crew was awesome with him. This fishing trip and experience was beyond our expectations. (The only thing that would have made the trip better was some calmer water, but that’s just Mother Nature.) If you are looking to book a fishing trip, stop reading reviews and book with Captain Chase on No Doubt!
Reported catch:Response from CaptainThanks so much for fishing with us!! We are glad yall had fun & hope to see you again!
Alleenna Bowman5.0Verifiedbest trip ever grandkids thought they were pros by the end
4 Hour Nearshore Trolling • 11 adults • 4 childrenwould highly recommend everyone had a great time. Grandkids though they were pros by the end of it. So glad i looked into the crew and did not take advice of the lady who told me that i would have to pay for 3 boats, the boat with no doubt holds up to 23 people and will take smaller parties there were 11 of us on the boat and no one had to split up or miss the grand kids first deep see fishing. Amazing time crew and fun. thanks so much.
Response from CaptainAwesome! We had a great time taking yall fishing. So glad you had a good time!
Chris Freeman5.0VerifiedNEWAwesome Day!
8 Hour Offshore • 12 adultsWe had a group of 11 and had a great time! Captain Chase put us on fish all day. The first mate, House, was on top of everything all day and had has laughing. We would have left a 10 star review. We will definitely be back in the future. Awesome experience!
Reported catch:Response from CaptainThank you so much!! We appreciate it. Enjoyed fishing with yall and so glad you had a good time. Hope to see you again.
Marvin CuevasRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAmazing first trip!
10 Hour Offshore • 7 adults • 2 childrenThis experience has ruined my expectations of a chartered deep sea fishing trip in the best possible way!! House and Capt. Chase were excellent in every way! We literally sat around as we were returning to shore trying to come up with recommendations to improve our experience and we honestly could not come up with a single idea!! They are a great team and perform their individual roles flawlessly! Can’t wait for our next trip!

Response from CaptainAwesome!! So glad yall had fun. Look forward to fishing with you again!

SEPTEMBER IS THIS YEAR's SWEET SPOT FOR
sep 12, 2026 • Gulf Shores
If you’ve been waiting for the right time to book a Gulf fishing trip, this is it.
September is one of those rare months when the seasons line up and give us a shot at an incredible mix of reef fish on the same trip:
? Greater Amberjack — open through October 13
? Gag Grouper — open through September 30
? Gray Triggerfish — open
? Red Snapper — federal charter season runs through October 25
? Vermilion Snapper (Mingos) — always fun for filling the box
That makes September a pretty special window. We can head offshore with several of the Gulf’s most sought-after reef fish all on the menu at once — and some of those seasons won’t overlap again this year.
Even better? The summer crowds are thinning out, the Gulf is still warm, and we're getting into some of the best weather of the year.
⚓ Private offshore charters from Fort Morgan
? Up to 23 people
☀️ Great fall weather + fewer crowds
? One of the best mixes of open seasons we’ll see all year

August Update
avg 15, 2026 • Gulf Shores
The trolling bite is heating up right along with the weather.
Saturday’s crew had a good day, picking up some nice trolling fish along with plenty of red snapper.
August has definitely brought the heat, but the fishing hasn’t slowed down with it. We’ll take the fish, the A/C, and whatever breeze we can get.
A few good ones from Saturday aboard No Doubt!

Red Snapper & More Red Snapper
jul 11, 2026 • Gulf Shores
The 10-hour trip yesterday was one for the books. We had a great group of guys onboard and spent the day putting together a serious catch of quality red snapper. The bite stayed steady, and by the end of the day we had so many fish in the ice chest we couldn't even get the lid closed.
We picked through some really nice fish, enjoyed good company, and headed back to Fort Morgan with plenty of fillets to clean. Thanks again to this crew for spending the day with us—we hope y'all enjoy the fish, and we look forward to having y'all back.

Red Snapper Bite Stays Strong
jun 19, 2026 • Gulf Shores
Rain showers, thunderstorms, rough seas—you name it, we've seen it this week.
Fortunately, the red snapper didn't seem to mind. Today's crew put together a full limit and headed home with plenty of fish for dinner.
Summer is rolling along, red snapper season is in full swing, and we're looking forward to another busy weekend on the water. Thanks to everyone who has fished with us so far this season.

A Good Day to be Offshore
jun 17, 2026 • Gulf Shores
Red snapper season is off to a great start! We've been seeing steady action offshore with some nice snapper hitting the deck and a few king mackerel & jack crevalle mixed in. The Gulf has been looking good, and our guests have been heading back to the dock with coolers getting heavier by the trip.
Thanks to everyone who has joined us so far this season. We appreciate the support and can't wait to see what the rest of the summer has in store!
