Orange Beach Fishing Charter Seasons and The Fish You Can Catch
When we arrive back at the marina, we take any fish you have caught out of the cooler and clean and bag them for you. These are vermilion snapper and gray triggerfish.
We start charter fishing each year in Orange Beach in March with spring break and stay busy until late October each year. Our peak busy season begins about the middle of May or Memorial Day Weekend and runs strong until the kids go back to school early August. During our busy season in Gulf Shores, we offer two 6 hour trips daily or one 10 hour/full day deep sea fishing trip. The most popular trips are 6 hours in length. These trips take you offshore or about 15 to 20 miles south of Orange Beach, Alabama.
The fish we catch changes with the time of they year it is. During the summer, we have warmer waters and we have a chance to catch more migratory fish like king mackerel, spanish mackerel, bonito, jack crevalle, mahi mahi, wahoo, etc. The most common fish we catch are reef fish. They are available to catch year round because they don’t migrate. Popular reef fish include red snapper, triggerfish, mangrove snapper, greater amberjack, gag grouper, scamp grouper, vermilion snapper/beeliners, red porgy/white snapper, barracuda, almaco jacks, jolt head porgy, robin fish, ruby lips/tomtates. All of which are good to eat. Since these fish are so popular, they are highly regulated and seasons can be short. Just ask us when booking your trip and we can answer any questions you may have.
