Trending Questions About Fishing in Orange Beach, Alabama

When is the best time to catch Red Snapper in Orange Beach?

Red Snapper season in Alabama typically runs from early June through mid-August. This is the prime time to book an offshore charter with Killin Time Fishing Charters, as the fish are in abundance and the Gulf waters are perfect for a full-day adventure.

What bait works best for catching King Mackerel in Orange Beach?

King Mackerel love live bait—especially cigar minnows and threadfin herring. We often troll nearshore drop-offs and reefs using light tackle and duster rigs to trigger those aggressive strikes. Captain Colby’s boat is always fully stocked and rigged for success.

What species can families target during the cooler months?

During fall and winter, inshore waters are ideal for targeting species like Sheepshead, Flounder, and Speckled Trout. These calmer, nearshore areas are great for kids and beginners, and the action is still steady throughout the colder months.

How do I book a trip to target trophy fish with Killin Time Fishing Charters?

Booking is simple—just contact us through our website or give Captain Colby a call. Let us know what species you're after and when you’d like to go, and we’ll handle the rest. Early booking is recommended during peak seasons like Red Snapper and summer weekends.

What tropical fish are caught in Orange Beach, Alabama?

While not technically tropical in the reef-sense, summer waters can bring Mahi Mahi, Spanish Mackerel, and the occasional Cobia closer to the coast. These colorful, hard-fighting fish are most common in warmer months and are a highlight of summer offshore trips.
