Saltwater guide around Orange Beach....

Postby duck38866 » Mon May 14, 2012 4:50 pm

Me, my wife and 2 sons (ages 14 and 12) are planning a trip down to Orange Beach in late Sept./early Oct. What guide service do y'all recommend and what can we expect to be biting then??
Also, we want it to just be us on the boat with the worker/workers. What can we expect as far as cost for say an 8 hour trip??
Thanks for any responses.
P.S.-not really wanting to do any shallow water fishing. We would like to go out a little ways........

I just got back from a private charter on Lady Jacqueline...6 people....8 hours....$1500 for Red Snapper

Captain: Butch Pardue

I can give you Butch's # if you want to contact him directly...he may can beat the $1500 through Zeke's Landing.
PM me if you want more info.

I don't know if yall would be intrested in it or not but its a guy up there that is doing bowfishing trips there for stingrays, shark, shephead, mullet, and black drum. Liquid Trail is the name of the service Jarett is the guide http://www.liquid-trails.com/ 251-269-8924 It's awsome and not bad of a price at all!!! He is a A class guy!!!!

Here is the pictures from our trip a few weeks ago. Two of these guys had never shot a bow untile this night.We did pretty good.

Use Joey Abroscato out of Dauphin Island, meet him at Fort Morgan Marina, then visit Fort Morgan. If me, I'd pick early October. No crowds, best coastal weather of the year.

Getaway charters is what we went with back in July. They were awesome! Put us on some good fish!

Not sure if I would take a 4 year old on a deep sea charter. Mine was 10 on his first trip and that worked pretty well. Also, would have to think about the $1500 + for Snapper since the limits are so small these days.

Most charters will do have price for kids under 10. I took my 10 yo daughter and 6 year old son for $300 total this year out of Pensecola. it was a large baot, 55 foot, that fished 20 people. but it was nice being on a big boat, not as rough and had a nice AC'd cabin. If you are taking kids, I'd suggest somethign like this. A boat can get small quick when the actin gets good and kids can get ran over on a small boat.

We are going down to fort Morgan the first weeks of June. I'm also trying to find a charter or something for me, my brother in law and father in law.
Also what's in season then?
May the wind always be at your back and the sun upon your face, and may the wings of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars.
