Which Fishing Charter Is Right For You?
Some Fish Your Kids Catch, Are Bigger Than Usual!
The Distraction Charter Boat only offers private trips. This means only you and your group will be on the charter boat during the trip. The price you pay for your charter is based on the number of hours you are wanting to go deep sea fishing. We do not put groups together or allow others to join your private fishing charter. So, the price you pay for the charter is the same if you have 1 person or a maximum of 6 in your party.
Depending on the time of year you want to go fishing, we offer the following charter trips: 4 Hour Trolling, 5 Hour Spring and Fall Specials, 6 Hour, 8 Hour and Full Day 10 Hour trips. As you can see, we have a fishing charter for any budget. The longer the trip you book, the greater the opportunity for you to try and catch more species of fish. Our fishing rates are very competitive. There is a direct correlation between the price of the trip, distance offshore and species of fish you can catch near Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.
The Fish You Can Catch
Depending on the time of the year you want to go charter fishing, you can expect to catch migratory fish like mackerel (spanish and or king), bonito, ladyfish, jack crevalle, tuna and wahoo. The most common reef fish you can catch are vermilion snapper (beeliners), red snapper, triggerfish, gag grouper, scamp, greater amberjack, almaco jack, lane snapper, white snapper (red porgy) and more.
