trip description for Orange Beach Bottomfishing Special in Orange Beach

Get out there with Captain RC and spend the day crushing Snapper, Grouper, Amberjack, Triggerfish, and more off the coast of Orange Beach, AL! In addition to the natural reefs and rock ledges where Snapper like to congregate, the Gulf Coast of Alabama features thousands of artificial reefs, which provide perfect habitat for these prized fish. In fact, despite having only 50-odd miles of coastline, Alabama is one of the best places in the country to catch your limit, and you shouldn't miss this opportunity to take your shot at a huge range of deepwater reef species. To hook up keepers, you'll cruise offshore to the best fishing grounds, then drop baits and/or jig the underwater rocks and structure in order to draw bites. Snapper, Grouper, and Amberjack can get big, and they can be challenging to haul over the rail. In particular, Amberjack are known as "reef donkeys" for their stubborn fighting abilities. Have no fear though—Captain RC is a pro, and will make sure you're able to bag a few. To attract bites, you'll be fishing a bunch of different lures and bait, jigging and bottomfishing where the big lunkers like to hang out. RC has tons of tips and tricks to help you hook a monster, and there's no better opportunity for a personal best than on this trip! You’ll be fishing aboard Captain RC's 36' Cape Horn center console. She's powered by three Suzuki 350-HP engines, so you'll cruise offshore with some serious speed. This well-equipped vessel comes with all the necessities, including GPS, Fishfinder, a live bait well, and an ice box for your keepers. This boat also has a shade that can be put up to get you out of the sun. Captain Robert will provide top-of-the-line rods, reels, tackle, and fishing licenses. Don’t forget to bring food and drinks for the day, sunscreen, a hat, and a cooler with ice to take home your day’s catch. Come on down to Orange Beach and make some lifelong memories! Read More

    Troy provided an amazing fishing trip for our crew. He was kept busy re-baiting hooks for a crew of 6, and never showed signs of it being a bother to him. Troy was very concerned that we had a memorable trip and provided several locations for us to try our luck to reel in the big ones! Thanks, Troy!!

    A group of 6 went with Zach into the Gulf. We had a great time catching snapper. There was some weather that morning and Zach was very proactive in arranging a slight departure delay to let the weather pass. Zach was dedicated to keeping us on fish. Access to the boat and dock was super easy. I would go back!

    We Loved Captain Shawn! He was patient, helpful and very engaging. If the fish weren’t biting in one spot he’d move to another. We caught a variety of species and was knowledgeable about every one we caught . He realized how excited I was to see the dolphins so he got them to jump in our waves from the boat. Every time we saw them he was sure to try to get them to interact with us. His boat was very nice and clean, you could tell he loved his boat. IT WAS AWESOME! We plan on a second trip with him to do offshore fishing next. We enjoyed his inshore trip and hospitality! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! One more thing… although we didn’t bring our 10 year old son I definitely would not hesitate to take him out on a Captain Shawn’s boat! He’s a family man, I could tell he would do great with younger passengers as well.
