Few things revitalize and energize one more than nature's beauty and bounty. A boat trip in scenic surroundings is one of the most enjoyable and relaxing ways to de-stress or to spend quality family time. The Mexican Gulf coastline is not only renowned for its exquisite beauty, but also for its wonderful angling opportunities. Charter Fishing Gulf Shores offers some of the best inshore and deep water fishing adventures for anglers of all levels of experience.
Not everybody likes deep sea fishing or spending hours on the water, but most people love a leisurely cruise in beautiful, tranquil surroundings. Therefore the various chartering companies in the Gulf offer a wide variety of customized sightseeing and angling trips for families, laymen and serious anglers alike. Short, inshore trips to the exquisite back bays and canals around Golf Shores are ideal for a family outing where even mom and the kids can learn to hook a trout or a flounder for fun!
An extra bonus on all trips are the abundance of whales, dolphins, sea birds and sea turtles one encounters en route to the final destination. The inshore trips are normally within 8 sea miles of the shore and guests are taught different techniques to help them reel in their catch of the day. Even young kids can master the light tackle, and the delight on a youngster's face when he or she reels in a first catch, is priceless.
The offshore trips are for the more adventurous and experienced anglers who want to try their hand at the larger deep sea fish species further offshore. These trips range from 4 hour trolling and 6 hour bottom fishing trips for Red Snapper and Triggerfish to overnight expeditions to pursue flagship species such as marlin. For guests who just want to enjoy the scenery and catch a few mackerel or cobia to release or to have for supper, the shorter trips of less than 8 hours are perfect.
The longer, offshore trips are more taxing and aimed at more experienced, competitive anglers looking for the ultimate adrenaline kick. They range from overnight to more than one day trips that can take one up to 200 miles from shore in pursuit of the BIG one that did NOT get away. All boats are fully equipped with state-of-the-art safety gear, fishing equipment and nourishment according to each unique group's requirements. Reeling in and landing that trophy King Mackerel or Marlin is a life-changing experience for any angler.
Anglers are taught a variety of techniques to ensure that the big one's don't get away. The methods include casting, chumming, jigging, trolling, dropping and drifting for a variety of light and medium action rods, while reels are needed to pursue Red Snapper, Redfish and other bigger fish. A variety of live bait are caught. Cut bait and artificial ones such as spoons, jigs and top water plugs are also used around gas platforms, sand bars, reefs, and open schools of feeding fish. The largest artificial reef in the country, just off of Orange Beach, is another hot spot among deep sea anglers.
Strict policies are in place to protect the Gulf's indigenous fish species such as the red snapper, etc. From exploitation and over-fishing. These includes a catch and release policy whereby guests may keep one or two of their favorite species from their catch for dinner and the rest are released.
Boat trips in the area are not restricted to fishing. Guests who want to celebrate their catch of the day or some other highlight, can also book a private party boat, or embark on cruise boat trips to enjoy the sunset, dinner, dolphins and whale watching, as well as water sports.
