Patriot Fishing, with Captain Scott at the helm, has been fishing the waters around Orange Beach for well over 25 years now. This exceptional charter service runs family-friendly trips and welcomes anglers of all skill levels. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never fished before – it’s never too late to learn and catch your trophy fish! The crew specializes in good family time!

Your adventure starts on a 30’ Torre boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. This vessel has been restored a few years ago and features new navigational electronics and it’s powered by a 250 HP Suzuki engine. Since some trips take place in the back bay, the boat has a wireless trolling motor – that way, you can move slowly, without scaring the fish.

Captain Scott can customize each trip to meet your needs. Get in touch in advance and let him know how you imagined your adventure.

Your fishing licenses and equipment are taken care of. You only need to pack some snacks and drinks for the day. Don’t forget sunscreen and sunglasses too!

Join Patriot Fishing for some world-class fishing in these prolific waters. The fishing season never stops here!

Let’s go fishing!
