Start your journey with Legacy Charters! They are located on Cotton Bayou in Orange Beach, Al, and offer fishing trips year round. This charter is operated by Captain Mandy, who’s been fishing in the area for a long time. Anglers of all ages and skill levels are welcome to join, so hop aboard!

The boat you’ll be fishing from is a 40’ Michael Fitz that accommodates up to 20 guests. This walk around style boat has lots of deck space, so each angler can fish in comfort. She’s powered by twin 330 HP Cummins engines that will help you get to your fishing spot in no time. The cabin is equipped with cold air conditioners and a clean restroom for your comfort, while you and your family enjoy a day of deep sea fishing on the Gulf.

There’s lots of trips to choose from. You can find something as short as a 4-hour trolling trip or as long as a 12-hour deep sea fishing. Some of the species you can go after are Red Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish, Amberjack, Grouper, Triggerfish, and more.

Your fishing licenses and equipment are included in the price. You only need to prepare your food and drinks for the day. It is customary to tip the deckhand 20% of the total charter price. Fish cleaning is available at 30 cents a pound. Your catch will be cleaned and packaged for your trip back home.

Legacy Charters hopes you’ll choose them for your next fishing adventure. Join them whenever you feel the need for an exciting day on the water.
