  We had a blast going out in the Gulf with Alex. We got on some nice bait balls and caught some great fish! Alex is a true fisherman and had great people skills. He made it super easy to feel comfortable and safe for us. All we can say are … More great things about him. We will definitely be back to fish again. I highly recommended checking out Intentional Fishing Charters for your next trip. You will not be disappointed!

  We booked a red snapper fishing trip with Captain Alex and it was amazing! He works really hard to get his clients on fish and is an awesome guy to be around. We nearly limited on red snapper(+ a ton of miscellaneous species) in a 6 hour … More trip and he got us on some hogs. Incredible rates and an incredible fishing experience!

  My son and I went on a 6 hour trip with Captain Alex today and had an absolute blast. We got our limit on Red Snapper, 3 Vermillion Snappers, 3 Mahi Mahi and a bunch of non keepers. I had a sand bar shark for a while but lost him just before … More getting him to the boat. Also lost many snapper to really big Groupers.
  Captain Alex is great. Even though we have done this kind of fishing before, my son and I learned all kinds of new fishing techniques. Thanks Alex!
  We highly recommend Intentional Fishing Charters. We will be back
  to make more family memories.

  We have been out with Alex a couple of times now. HOLY MOLY…this guy knows where the fish are! Alex is a patient guy, loves to share his knowledge with you and and genuinely excited for you when you start catching fish. We caught so many … More fish, we almost got too tired pulling them in!
  Alex was just as patient with my 4 year old daughter as he was with us and takes control of all the things that you don’t really want to do so you can enjoy your day. I can’t say enough good things about our time with Alex…book him for your next fishing charter. You will NOT be disappointed! We can’t wait to go again.

  First I want to say that the captain Alex is a true professional. He made our father-son fishing trip so easy and was prepared for all different types of fish. This is our second time booking with intentional fishing and this year we went … More for red snapper season. We had a great day on the water and even though the weather turned slightly bad Alex used his Great Captain skills to get us out of the possible storm back to Safe Waters. He is fully knowledgeable about all different types of fish, regulation sizes, shows you different poles /lures /bait and methods for the different types of fish. His boat is beautiful and he has some great music playing to make the fishing experience even better. Lastly after our trip Alex fillets all of the fish, cleans them up and puts them in Ziploc bags ready for us to take home which is a really nice perk of booking with Alex of intentional fishing. I recommend him 100%.

  My girlfriend and I had a great time fishing with Alex! Caught multiple species of fish snapper, amberjack tuna, trigger fish, and remora. We even had close sand shark and dolphin encounters. I would highly recommend booking a trip.

  Alex is an incredible guide, very knowledgeable of the local area and a genuine guide who cares about a great experience and responsible fishing! We had a blast all day, rocked out to some awesome music, and were nearly constantly hooked … More onto fish. If you’re looking for a charter that will bring in good size fish, plenty of adventure with other critters, and ultimately be the Florida gulf coast trip you write home to talk about, this is the one!

  Can’t say enough about Capt. Alex and Intentional Fishing. Probably the best trip that we have ever been on!! He put us on fish the entire time and did everything possible to make it enjoyable for the whole family, including fishing with … More our 5yr old so that way we (parents) could keep our lines in the water to get those massive Red Snapper and Grouper that we caught all day. We will definitely be back to Florida soon, and Intentional Fishing will be our #1 choice of fishing charters here in the Panhandle.

  Alex was simply an amazing guide. He was so down to earth and patient with my son and his friend who are both 5. Alex truly cared about us having fun catching fish. He provided all the fishing expertise you could ever ask for and didn’t … More seem to mind me asking a million questions. We jammed out to some great music throughout the entire trip. It really seemed like he tailored the experience to what we wanted it to be. He put us on lots of red snapper in several different locations. We also caught about half a dozen other species. He cleaned all the fish for us and gave me some useful tips on preparing them. He sent me a whole album of photos after the trip. The next time I come back to Destin, I’m booking with Alex. I think it would be difficult to find a guide who is as well rounded as him.

  I had the pleasure of going on a fishing charter with Alex, and it was truly an outstanding experience. From the moment we set foot on his boat, it was clear that we were in for a memorable day of fishing. Alex's professionalism and … More expertise were immediately evident, and he made us feel comfortable and confident in his abilities as a captain and guide.
  Our journey into the Gulf was met with calm waters and stunning scenery, setting the stage for an incredible day of fishing. Alex's knowledge of the local waters and the habits of various fish species was impressive. He guided us to the perfect fishing spots, and it didn't take long before we were reeling in some incredible catches.
  The variety of fish we caught was astounding – from snapper to grouper, we encountered a wide range of species, each more exciting than the last. Alex's enthusiasm for fishing was contagious, and he made the entire experience not only productive but also enjoyable. He was always ready with tips and advice to help us improve our fishing skills and maximize our success.
  What truly sets Alex apart, aside from his exceptional fishing expertise, is his genuine passion for what he does. Throughout the trip, he shared interesting facts about the local marine ecosystem and the importance of responsible fishing practices. It was clear that he cares deeply about preserving these waters for future generations to enjoy.
  I cannot recommend Alex's fishing charter enough. If you're looking for an unforgettable day on the water, filled with great catches and even greater memories, Alex is the captain to choose. His professionalism, knowledge, and passion for fishing make him a top-notch guide, and I can't wait to book another trip with him in the future. Thank you, Alex, for an incredible fishing adventure!

  Alex took our group of dads, grandads, and grandsons out for a wonderful day. He was so knowledgeable. He knew exactly where to go, what bait we’d need, and even had a variety of rods/reels. With his expertise, we ran up against the limit … More of red snapper. When we returned to the dock, he expertly filleted the fish and helped us divide it up to take home. He took the extra time and effort to make sure our day was a ton of fun and a big success. I cannot recommend Intentional Fishing enough. It exceeded our aspirations for a fun, hassle-free day of deep sea fishing.

  Alex is great. He knows fishing in the Gulf, and where to fish. He does all the work, you just drown the bait.
  Alex is dedicated to you having a good time and catching fish. We caught our limit of Red Snapper In about 40 minutes. Then … More we started fishing for other species.
  My buddies and I plan to go back with Alex hopefully in the fall.
  Thanks for the great time and service.
  Bob, Terry & Dennis.

  Fishing was slow but we had a great time out on the water. Alex did everything he could to find some fish, and you can tell he loves his job. We had a blast chasing mahi. We will definitely book again the next time we come down.

  Intentional fishing is the best! Between myself, my wife, daughter, and granddaughter, we kept Alex running. He put us on the fish right away. First line in the water immediately brought in a keeper red snapper. We had a great time. Can't … More wait to go back and do it again.
