Trips
Pick the day that fits your crew
Every charter is private — just your group, up to six passengers. Trips run from quick half-days to full offshore hauls, each one custom-fit to the season, your experience level, and what you want to catch.
Three-Quarter & Full Day
More water, bigger fish. Chase red snapper, grouper, and amberjack with time to troll for king mackerel on the way.
Extended
The serious haul. Long-range bottom trips for scamp grouper and the drag-screaming, fill-the-freezer kind of day.

The catch
Fish you'll meet on an Orange Beach trip
Red Snapper
Famous for the fight and the flavor — the signature Gulf catch every summer charter is after.
Grouper
Gag, red, and scamp — hard-hitting bottom dwellers and Captain Bryan's specialty.
Amberjack
"Reef donkeys." Pound-for-pound the best workout in the Gulf.
King Mackerel
Fast and flashy — perfect for anyone who loves a good trolling chase.
Triggerfish
Great table fare and a springtime favorite.
Vermilion Snapper
Steady action and excellent eating on deeper bottom trips.
Anglers talk
Five stars, trip after trip
“Best charter we've ever booked! The captain put us right on the fish.”

Families first
Bring the kids — we specialize in it
The Wild Orange's back-deck helm means Captain Bryan can drive the boat and help your youngest anglers at the same time, while the deckhand takes care of the adults. No age is too young to ride along, and ages 4 and up can reel in fish of their own.
