Common questions

Do I need a fishing license?

Yes. A valid Alabama fishing license is required and is not included in the trip price. You can purchase one online from Outdoor Alabama before your trip.

What's included?

Everything but your license — a fully equipped Phoenix bass boat, quality rods, reels and tackle, and proven local techniques. Just show up ready to fish.

What should I bring?

Weather-appropriate clothing and rain gear, sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, and food/drinks (no alcohol per USCG rules). Please leave personal tackle boxes at home.

How do deposits and payments work?

A $100 deposit reserves your date (paid online via PayPal). The balance is due on the fishing day. Deposits are non-refundable but transferable within the same calendar year.
