Private or shared charter
For a private charter, only the captain and your group will be on board. What you pay will depend on the number of hours you hire the vessel. For a shared charter, a fee is usually charged per person. To ensure you get the best value for your money, you’ll want to hire a comfortable vessel and a captain with successful previous experience.
Duration of trip
The fee for the fishing charter will depend on the length of your trip. Generally speaking, an inshore fishing charter can take 4-6 hours. It’s perfect for families and those who want to stay close to the shore. Equally important, this can be a great opportunity for beginners. Yet others may wish to spend up to 12 hours out on a longer excursion.
Determine your budget
The amount you pay will depend on the length of the charter, the number of people, the type of fishing, and the fishing vessel you use. Just like every opportunity, going with the cheapest option may not get you what you want. That said, you should be aware of what exactly you are purchasing when you book your next fishing adventure. Finally, you will want to make sure to get all the available information from the captain who is very knowledgeable about fishing the waters around Gulf Shore. You’ll be so glad you did!
