Myself, my daughter, and my son a law booked a 4 hour charter with Captain Mike Dates and First Shot Charters. We have gone deep sea fishing before off the coast of Orange Beach,  Alabama, but decided to try bay fishing this year. It was incredible! We caught 24 Spanish mackerel in less than 3 hours. Captain Mike was very attentive, very knowledgeable, and a tremendous boat captain. I highly recommend captain Mike Dates and First Shot Charters!

Capt. Mike is an A1 captain.  We had an awesome fishing trip. Very good with my daughters and kept us catching good fish all morning.  Will fish with him again next time!

We had a great Day with Captain Mike! He put us on fish within 15 minutes after catching bait. Had my son with me on his first fishing trip Captain Mike took time with him and made sure he landed a fish by himself before we quit. If anyone is looking for a good fishing trip contact Captain Mike you will not be disappointed!

Great trip for me and my son. We caught and released several Amberjack. One that was 36 inches. Caught a nice King Mackerel. Mike put us on to some good locations with the right bait.  We would definitely go out with First Shot again. Thanks Mike.
