If you have never been flounder gigging, bowfishing, or inshore fishing before, the big question you need to ask yourself right now is, why not? These are incredible forms of fishing that will give every adrenaline junkie a rush. You can release your inner Robin Hood, Katniss Everdeen, or even Legolas, catching your own dinner, and having a great fishing adventure.

If you are going to give this a shot (pun intended) then you need to come down to Alabama and join Captain Matt Stratton of Orange Beach Bowfishing. With over a decade of experience, he is the one who will teach you how to bowfish, spearfish, and flounder gig. You'll leave after the trip a pro and with a huge love of this type of fishing.

You'll spend the trip on board a 22' aluminum center console deck over. This beautiful vessel is equipped with 2,000 watts of led lights – this basically translates to you being able to see all of your prey, no matter what the time of day! Or one of our other well equipped boats.

And what kind of trip would it be without some epic background beats? Bluetooth your I phone, or Android phone and play your favorite fishing playlist.

You'll be able to target a range of species. On the menu are Flounder, Halibut, Sheepshead, Ray, Ladyfish, Pompano, Needlefish, Crab, and more. These delicious fish will keep you busy for the whole 4 hours.

Regardless of the time of year, there will be a trip available for you. Even children are more than welcome on board – there is no age limit, as long as the parents are confident their kid will enjoy the trip, we will be happy to teach them all they need to know about Flounder gigging, bowfishing, and fishing.

All of the equipment you need is included and provided for you. After the trip your haul will be filleted, so you only need to start thinking about how you will cook your haul once you are home.

Awesome Experience
4 Hour Trip — Summer Evening on March 26, 20243 adults1 child

This was our first time bow fishing and as my boys are avid hunters and fishers I figured they'd love it. I was right, they haven't stopped talking about it! Captain Tracey made our experience the best it could be! He took us to great areas with lots of varieties of fish and gave us lots of guidance and encouragement. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thanks again! If we ever are back in the area we would 100% book this experience again with Captain Tracey.

This was amazing!
4 Hour Trip — Summer Evening on May 28, 20244 adults

Captain, crew, and host were all amazing. Taught all of us to use the bows and answered my kids many questions about everything patiently. We shot rays and as an added bonus we saw sea turtles swimming as well as dolphins feeding 10 foot from the boat. Want to try something different? Give night shift a try!

Since age six, I have enjoyed all forms of fishing, both freshwater and saltwater. What started as a hobby turned in to a business when I started commercial fishing in 2007. I enjoyed fishing at night and soon realized that other people were intrigued by night time fishing. I took several people out that said night time fishing is much more fun than daytime fishing. So, I bought another new boat, went to captains school, and have taken my love of fishing to another chapter. Now in 2026 we have 4 captains and multiple boats running full time! We also started running full time under Orange Beach Bowfishing instead of that and Night Shift Charters.
