What Our Clients Say
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 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! EDIT! 6/8/2026 Just went back for our second trip had a blast and will be back again! Tight lines all day!
Captain Alex was very knowledgeable and an all around good dude. Ended up derailed due to naval operations but he made the best of it! Caught a lot of fish just not so many keepers, but that was absolutely not due to any fault of Alex He got us in great drops counting times till we hit bottom Got seasick and we still made the best of it!! Absolutely recommend to anyone!!
