For Excellent Charter Fishing Gulf Shores Is The Ultimate Choice!

By Jocelyn Davidson


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.

The Gulf coastline is a beautiful tourist and recreational fishing Mecca. The salt marshes and deep water corals sustain the prolific abundance of sea birds, various fish species and other marine wildlife such as whales, dolphins and sea turtles. A variety of chartering companies offer state-of-the-art angling expeditions to suit anyone's needs or whims.

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.

Deep sea angling excursions to reel in coveted species such as the King Mackerel, Cobia and others, can take anything from 4-6 hours to an overnight trip. Especially the overnight trips are aimed at skilled adventurers who know how to handle Penn rods and reels safely and effectively while fighting large, powerful saltwater fish.

As in any other place, the weather and climate changes affect the fishing industry in Gulf Shores. Although charter fishing is a major tourist attraction throughout the year, the summer months are still the best and safest option. Located on the northern coast of the Gulf of Mexico, the area is also vulnerable to hurricanes and cancellations due to bad weather is to be expected.

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.

Private Gulf Shores fishing charters depart daily. To celebrate a successful angling trip, one can also book a tailor-made party boat charter!
