Captain Chance Praytor will be guiding you along throughout the course of your fishing adventure. Capt. Chance began fishing at a very early age and his love for it has grown tremendously over the years. He began running Dauphin Island fishing charters so he could share his passion for fishing with other anglers. He is very friendly and is very patient with kids. Capt. Chance loves to meet new people. He is always ready to assist you in any way he can on his South Alabama fishing trips.

Our fishing charters set sail out of Dauphin Island, Alabama. Capt. Chance will strive to put you where the fish are biting. He may end up leading you to explore the nearby waters of Fort Morgan, Gasgue, Alabama Port, Barnwell, Point Clear, Mon Louis, Fairhope, and many other gorgeous locations around the Mobile Bay and Bon Secour Bay.

All the fishing action begins the moment you step onto our stunning 24ft Blazer Bay boat. This boat makes Dauphin Island fishing charters a dream come true! Her 250hp Yamaha engine can get us to where we need to be at speeds up to 35 knots. You’ll find features such as power poles, a live baitwell, GPS, a wireless trolling motor, and all the latest fish finding technologies. This vessel can hold up to 4 guests at a time. So, feel free to grab 3 of your closest friends and family members to join you for a great day of South Alabama fishing!

We offer 4 and 6 hour fishing trips covering the inshore waters of Dauphin Island. When Red Snapper season starts, we offer a special 8 hour offshore trip where we specifically target this delicious species. You are provided with all the rods, reels, tackle, lures, bait, and fishing licenses needed for a successful day of South Alabama fishing. We will clean and package any catch you are able to keep after each trip at no extra cost.

The inshore species of this area are loads of fun to target and catch! Capt. Chance will go the extra mile to make sure you do not return to the dock empty handed. Some of the species you can expect to catch while on our Dauphin Island fishing charters include Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Spanish Mackerel, Tripletail, Sheepshead, and Black Drum.

6 Hour Inshore Trip (AM)
Our guide worked hard to get us on fish and work around the weather issues for some fantastic spring fishing near Dauphin Island. Chance is a young guide who prides himself on learning about his guests and helping them have a great time on the water. We caught a lot of specs and several keepers for dinner. He would be great with kids, families and experienced anglers. He is a professional who is curious, has grown up in the area, and it was a pleasure getting to know him.

6 Hour Inshore Trip (AM)
We had a great time fishing with Captain Chance while visiting Dauphin Island. It was a beautiful morning, and we caught several trout. We used up most of our bait catching fish just under the limit and had to quit a little early, but we ended up with a good amount of keepers. Chance does a great job, and has a nice boat and equipment, I definitely recommend him, and will book him again if we have the opportunity.

6 Hour Inshore Trip (AM)
Chance did an awesome job helping us find the fish. Book a morning half day trip with Chance during your summer stay and you won’t be disappointed. Comfortable boat, plenty of live bait, great views, and tons of fish. We lost count on the fish we caught and also took more than enough home. If you can do your part getting them in, Chance does his part putting you on the fish! Awesome guy.
