How do I contact you?

The best way to contact me is by email at robert@alabamafishingbuddy.com, via phone at 205-478-2977 or through the forums section of this website.

What do you charge?

My rates vary depending on where we are fishing and the services that you require.  For current pricing please contact me via one of the methods above.

What do I need to bring?

If you will be bringing your own equipment, I ask that you please limit it to 3 or 4 rod and reel combos and a tackle box. You may also want to bring rain gear depending on the weather and make sure that you have an Alabama issued fishing license. You can get that here.  I will provide lunch and non-alcoholic beverages.

What do you do for lunch?

I will provide sandwiches and snacks as well as soft drinks, gatorade and water.  If you have special diet needs please let me know when you book your trip and I will do my best to accomodate your needs.

Where will we meet?

That all depends on where you will be driving from and where we will be fishing. Some trips may jump off from my house while others may require that we meet somewhere in the middle or possibly meet at the boat launch.

How long will we fish?

This depends on you. Some people like to get on the water before daylight and fish until after dark. Others may prefer to fish mornings or evenings only. I like to let the fish dictate how long I fish.  This is one thing that sets me apart from other guides.  I will not spend the day looking at my watch.  We can discuss the length of the trip when you book and I make it a policy to stay until you have gotten more than your money's worth.

What kind of gear will we be using?

You are welcome to use your own gear or I can provide you with something that you will be comfortable with. I generally use baitcasting rigs but I have spinning gear and spin casting gear to accomodate fishermen of all levels.

What techniques will we be using?

Depending on the time of year and water conditions this will vary.  Contact me before our trip for information on current conditions.
