About Your Trip

Welcone aboard with Captain Eddie for an unforgettable fishing trip out of Orange Beach, AL! You'll be chasing Yellowfin Tuna, one of the pound-for-pound fastest and hardest-fighting fish in the Gulf. The blue waters off of Orange Beach are a great area to go after some of the serious big game fish that the Gulf Coast is known for, and the delicious Yellowfin Tuna is no exception!

On this day-and-a-half trip, Captain Eddie will take you deep off the coast of Alabama to the shelf, where you'll be primarily targeting Yellowfin Tuna, with opportunities to land other big game catches like Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, and White Marlin when you're trolling to/from the Tuna hotspots. Once you get to the shelf, you can use a variety of methods to catch some Tuna including light tackle, trolling, and drift fishing, depending in whether the Tuna are feeding at the surface or crusing down below. Depending on the time of day, the season, and the weather, Captain Eddie will get you set up with the best method to get one on the line. The beauty of this 36-hour trip is that you can try a little bit of everything!

You'll be fishing aboard a luxurious 55’ Gillman sportfisher that can comfortably fit 6 anglers. She's equipped with three engines with a total of 1800 horsepower, so you'll be able to get offshore as fast as possible. This beautiful fishing machine is outfitted with a bedroom, air conditioning, fighting chair, GPS, fishfinder, live bait well, kitchen, flybridge, refrigerator, multimedia system, outriggers, tuna tubes, and an ice box.

Captain Eddie will provide all rods, reels, tackle, lures, licenses, and live bait. A first mate will also be on board to help you at all times. Don’t forget to bring food and drinks of your choice, a hat, sunscreen, and an ice box to take home your day’s catch. All aboard!

Hey Captain Experiences! Captain Eddie and Fisher are a great crew. Captain Eddie did his best to get us on fish and he did, we just had trouble with the dolphins stealing our bait. As much as the dolphins are cute and cool to see, they can be annoying to say the least. Fisher was very informative, not only about fish and dolphins, but also about how weather and moon cycles play out into catching fish as well. The boat is a very nice 55 for boat. Very clean and in top notch condition for the year! We recommend Captain Eddie and Fisher very highly. When we come back to Gulf shores, we will be calling on Captain Experiences, Captain Eddie and Fisher. We feel we have made two new friends. Thanks for the great and fun time guys. Bill
