About Your Trip

If your young anglers want to spend a day on the water hooking their first fish, this is the trip for you. Join Captain Don on this nearshore voyage designed to introduce your children to saltwater fishing in calm protected waters close to shore. Near Orange Beach, AL, there are plenty of fish to be caught including Black Drum, Ladyfish, Crab, and Trout. This is a trip that will stay with your kids forever and hopefully ignite a love for fishing.

You and your family will also target Sheepshead and Skate on this short, 3 hour charter. It is a very manageable time so the young anglers don’t get fussy and Captain Don is great with kids, being a father himself. There is a possibility of seeing Dolphins, Sea Turtles, and Manatees as well, which can be a very exciting experience for children and adults alike.

On this trip, you will be aboard a 25’ Carolina Skiff, powered by a 150HP Evinrude engine. The vessel provides a smooth ride through the calm waters, ensuring a safe and positive environment for your family. And not to worry–Captain Don provides all the light tackle and other equipment needed to hook fish as well as bottled water. All your family needs to bring for an unforgettable experience is snacks and excitement!..(catch & release)

Had a great time out fishing with Captain Don today! Group of 5 adults and we all caught several fish. We all felt safe and everything was well maintained. The views of course were amazing! Will definitely use him again next time we are in Gulf Shores area.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is the home of over 1500 Damn Good fishing and hunting guides. Our mission is to unlock the outdoors for everyone, and we want to help you get out there through our no-hassle online booking experience and our team of outdoors experts.
We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.
Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.
Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
