Orange Beach has a fish with your name on it, so let Mayhem Charters help you catch it! You will not be disappointed on yout trip, you hsve a very large back deck to fishing from and plenty of room to move around. The inside of the boat is very spacious

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Sheepshead, Blackfin Tuna, Lane Snapper, Red Snapper, Amberjack, Gray Triggerfish, Spanish Mackerel, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, and whatever else is biting. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Capt. Matthew welcomes you aboard a 48' Viking sportfishing vessel that can carry up to 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 20% tip.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Some essentials to bring are a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed, cans only please and no glass bottles.

8 Hour Trip (AM) on June 20, 20264 adults

Captain Matt and Deckhand Jeremy were great. Had us on red snapper at the first stop out and caught our limit by 9am. Spent the rest of the morning and afternoon hunting down Vermillion and would’ve caught our limit on those too but a few dolphins wised up and started snatching our hooked fish. Also hooked a Barracuda on a high speed during the ride out! Five out of five stars for Mayhem and crew. Would definitely book again.

May fishing trip
8 Hour Trip (AM) on May 23, 2026

The whole experience with Capt Matt was phenomenal from the beginning. From the time we booked until we left the marina to come home. We had company down that had never been offshore. Matt kept us on fish and made the trip memorable for everyone. We will definitely book with Matt again and would recommend him to anyone.

Meet Captain Matt Jackson Fishing has been a way of life for me since I was a kid. I spent every summer on the Gulf Coast and fell in love with fishing at an early age. That passion eventually turned into a career when I started deckhanding on several well-known charter boats in the area over 22 years ago. After years of learning from experienced captains and spending countless days on the water, I earned my 100-Ton Captain's License 20 years ago. Since then, I've dedicated my life to helping anglers of all ages experience the excitement of Gulf fishing. Whether you're a first-time fisherman or a seasoned angler, my goal is to provide a safe, family-friendly trip while creating memories that will last a lifetime. From chasing snapper and triggerfish to battling tuna and wahoo offshore, I love sharing my passion for fishing with every guest who steps aboard. I look forward to fishing with you and showing you why the Gulf Coast has been my favorite place since I was a kid.
