Orange Beach, Alabama
Reported: 2 weeks ago

Fishing report: We've had a windy couple of weeks, but now seeing some good breaks leading to great fishing days. The water is warming up and the redfish have gotten much more active. Still seeing a few sheepshead around but expect to see the summer species start to crank up.

Spring has sprung! Water is heating up and so is the fishing. Offshore has been the ticket to some quality fish.

Captain Scott is so good, we are pretty much novices when it comes to any kind of fishing but he is patient, explains what to do and also all about the different kinds of fish we caught. He made the day fun and was very engaging with the kids too. I would absolutely recommend him!

★★★★★
We had a great time fishing with Johnny. He was patient with all of us - very attentive. When one of us snagged a stingray, it was extra fun watching how calm he was in helping us get it to the boat to take a quick picture (before we let it go). Got enough catch for an amazing dinner!

★★★★★
Had amazing time this morning fishing with Captain Mike!!! Lots of different species and we were on fish the whole time!!! Incredible trip!
Melissa S. | April 2, 2026

Trip: 4 Hour Inshore/Nearshore 8am-12
★★★★★
Our guide Andy was excellent. He was very quick to point out species we can shoot and the ones we can’t shoot. He did a great job getting us on top of them! Also his patience with our people who have never done it was amazing. He would keep us on top of the same fish until they hit it! 10/10 would recommend these guys to anyone. We will definitely be using them again next time.

Great experience! I'm fairly certain the man speaks fish. They were cold from the recent storm, but Mike knew just where to put us and the moment the sun came up we were on 'em. Cannot speak highly enough of Mike
