What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Orange Beach, Alabama for the first time?

We took a 6 hour trip with Action Charters. It's one of the party boats in the area, so that would be an economical start for beginners and fun for experienced fishermen.

Red snapper was hitting in every spot we went to. The tunas and mackerel seem to be every where also!

Bring motion sickness medication if you don't live on the ocean you will need it. Do your research and pick the trip you need then pick the next one that is longer because time goes so fast.

We are from the desert so the humidity was a bit much for us but tolerable for an early Morning trip.

Go with max drag and you will limit out if you listen to captain Curtis and follow instruction!! Unbelievable time ages from 10 to 51 and everyone caught their limit.

If driving into Orange Beach take a morning trip,if staying in Orange Beach take evening trip traffic is tough great fishing either way

Wear lots of sunscreen. Bring drinks and snacks. Follow the captain's orders because they know where the fish are.

It was hot in June, but that was expected. The water was perfect on our trip, but it can get stormy... it is summer after all. Great time!

Do a max of 30 people per boat trip, may be less tangled mess. Other then that dont change anything else best trip ever

Great fishing with an awesome experience! HIGHLY Recommend calling Southern Waters Charter if you want a memorable trip on the water with MONSTER fish! Best time of my life and will be back!

Find a guide who has been doing this for a long time and has the local knowledge it takes to put fish in the boat. The cheapest isn't always the best value.

Don't forget your cooler. If you do they are very proud of them. Weather is great. Not hot yet but warm. May be a tad cool in the morning but warms up nicely.

Take Dramamine early before you leave for your trip, wear sunscreen, reapply often (sunscreen), and book an all day trip! So much fun!

Go out with this charter company!! No need to look further. Second time with this charter. Great Captain and crew!

Really fun trip. Took 2 young girls fishing for there first time and captain mike was so polite and made a great experience for them

Orange Beach provides a wide variety of species to search for, there are multiple opportunities to see dolphins, and plenty of good spots to hit while fishing here!

I recommend people fish as often as possible. This was a great experience, some of the biggest fish I have ever seen in my life. Saw a pod of dauphins as well. Great time had by all.

Be prepared for a beautiful experience. One of the best locations I have fished from.

We picked Nauti-Nurse, but there are lots of fishing trips available. Orange Beach is wonderful!

Freeze water bottles, so they melt while fishing. That way your water is ice cold for the heat.

It was unusually hot and we went on a PM trip. Would recommend AM slot if available.

Look up Captain Bobby Townson for a great fishing trip..you will not be disappointed!!!

Capt George ben and Jacob were great would recommend to anyone was better than I expected

Be sure each angler in your group is aware of the limitations of the boat, trip, and Captain.

Captain Richard was definitely one to make our trip memorable for my family and I

The Captain’s suggestion works well. They No what is the area do to being out every day.

Check what’s in season before booking if you’re wanting to keep your catch.

I believe you should not book a trip earlier than June 1 due to current fishing regulations.

Remember it's fishing not catching. Go and have a good time with what ever you catch.

It was a little rougher than expected but we kept trying. Be ready to exercise your legs.
