The fishing here has been pretty steady this past month. Redfish, black snapper, flounder, trout and mackerel have been plentiful. Offshore fishing has been great whenever we can get out there!

Time is here for those overnight tuna trips!!! clear water has mover in and tuna, wahoo, white marlin are working the deep water rigs. This is the time to fill the freezer. Do some deep dropping for grouper on the way out and work the tuna all night. Give us a call. We carry up to six people so less than a thousand per person for a 24 hour tuna trip!!!

The amberjack bite has been on fire as well as Almaco Jacks, Triggerfish are running small so hooking up with a keeper trigger has been a chore! Plenty of Vermillion snapper and Porgy's around though. Trolling has been hit or miss, depending on the current some days we catch 6...

Plenty of Vermillion snapper and Porgy's around though. Trolling has been hit or miss, depending on the current some days we catch 6 and some days they aren't hitting! The blackfin are on the move as the water temp starts to drop they are moving closer inside of state waters! King mackerel have been the main ones we have been hooking up with on the shotgun trolling! Red snapper are everywhere but out of season for us!

The weather this time of the year is very moody, but the fish are still biting. there’s plenty of vermilion snapper and white snapper to be found. In the deep water, grouper and tile fish doing pretty good as well, and the tuna fishing is about to get red hot....

Redfish are starting to show up in the area. As long as the weather stays warm, the Spanish mackerel with be abundant. Mangrove snapper have been plentiful and have been very hungry. Fishing is good in Orange Beach right now.

The spanish mackerel , jack crevalle, and mangrove snapper have been caught inshore and a slight cool front just cooled the Temps down for us. We've caught big amberjack, mingos and Spanish mackerel offshore as well!

    Trip: INSHORE/NEARSHORE FISHING

  • ★★★★★
    well worth the time, effort, money to do this trip exclusively with your family. 10/10 trip. I caught 20 fish and there were 7 other people. We kept some snapper, everything else were all thrown back in the ocean.

    Trip: Summertime Deepsea - 53’ G&S

  • ★★★★★
    Great Experience! We had a great time. Captain Kyle did a great job finding spots to catch in and provided a smooth ride. Our deckhand Tristan was outstanding! Friendly, helpful, efficient and an overall nice guy. He kept our rods ready with bait, patient when taking our pictures, he made this day extremely enjoyable.

    Cade was amazing and would highly recommend him. Caught lots of fish. Completely satisfied with the charter. Thank You Cade for a great fishing experience.

    Trip: 3 Hour Inshore/Offshore

  • ★★★★★
    We were quite disappointed in our experience. Cade is a nice young man, but asked us nothing about our fishing experience or expectations for the day. Our first fishing spot was about 300 yards from the launch ramp where we caught about 5 or 6 fish, with the biggest being about 8 inches. We then traveled about 35 minutes to the second location which was under a highway bridge.. We caught about 4 or 5 fish, with the biggest being about 10 inches. I understand that the guide cannot be responsible for the fish caught but it seemed like we were in locations that were targeting smaller fish. For the cost of the trip, we were expecting more of a "Gulf charter fishing experience." I would recommend not using this venue.
