Rady to go fishing with Captain Braden? If you're ready to have fun fishing in Orange Beach, book a trip with Autistress Fishing. With Captain Braden at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.
You're likely to go after Flounder, Sheepshead, Bluefish, Black Drum, Mangrove Snapper, Gray Triggerfish, Red Snapper, Speckled Trout, Vermilion Snapper, Redfish, and more, depending on the time of year. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks!
The vessel, The Autistress, is a sister boat to our offshore boat named the Wahoodat. This boat is captained by Braden Coker. Braden has spent his whole life fishing inshore and offshore but his true passion is inshore. He has been a deckhand on the Wahoodat for two years and worked on several boats before that. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
Don't forget to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Come spend the day fishing with us and make unforgettable memories. We donate a portion of our profits every month to a special needs cause that is in the autism spectrum.

This was our best Charter yet! Our first time night fishing and caught more fish in two hours than we have in the other tripes which were at least 4 hours each. We limited in Speckled Trout in under 2 hours. Spent the remainder catching and releasing. A lot cooler too! Captain Braden was amazing! Very personable, helpful and great with the 10 year olds I had with me! We had 3 other charters scheduled this trip which were cancelled due to weather conditions. This was a last minute attempt to get a fishing trip in and not disrupting the boys before returning home. Captain Hebert was super accommodating and got Capt. Braden on the spur of the moment to take us out the same night I tried to book it! I’m glad we tried at the last minute as we were not disappointed! This will not be our last Charter with Capt. Braden nor will it be our last night charter! Thank you Woohoodat Fishing Co.! Y’all are the best! Laissez les bons temps rouler!
Thank you for that great review!! Im so glad we didn’t disappoint. Capt Braden works his butt off to try to make everyone happy!!

Captain Brydon is super cool! We had an awesome offshore fishing trip targeting red snapper, and we definitely got the job done. We also caught several other species along the way. We landed a triggerfish, but since the season was closed, it was safely released. Captain Brydon was friendly, professional, and very attentive to our entire crew throughout the trip. He worked hard to keep us on the fish and made sure everyone had a great experience. I highly recommend booking a trip with him, and we’ll definitely be back for another adventure! 🎣🐟
Thank you for the wonderful review!! Im so glad Capt Braden took such great care of you!!
Thank you Corey and Braden! We had such a great trip. I brought four of my boys 11-14 years old. Braden had us on fish almost instantly. we caught a ton of them. All of my boys had a blast. These men can’t control Mother Nature,but they definitely know what they’re doing. I’ve been on several guided trips and this was definitely one of the best. Thank you guys again. we will definitely be using you again when we come back. Thank you for making our vacation trip 10x Better.
Heck yeah!! Glad yall had a great time with Capt Braden i know he tries hard and it shows!!

My 9-year-old daughter, my father-in-law, and I went out on a 9:30 AM charter, and I can confidently say this was an outstanding experience from start to finish. As an experienced fisherman, I highly recommend booking this charter. We were actually able to book last minute after another guide I had scheduled months in advance canceled due to an electrical issue—so right from the beginning, Captain Braden saved the day. That alone set the tone, but the trip only got better from there. Captain Braden was incredibly prepared, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He consistently put us on fish and made sure my daughter was engaged and having a great time the entire trip. We ended up catching around 20 fish and keeping 13, including white trout, Gulf kingfish, a red snapper, and several others. What really stood out was his adaptability. When the bite slowed early on, he didn’t hesitate—he kept us moving, trying new spots and strategies so we were never sitting around waiting. His effort and determination made a huge difference. This was my first time taking my daughter on a charter, and as soon as we got in the car afterward, the first thing she said was, “Daddy, that was so much fun.” That says everything. Captain Braden—thank you for the great fishing, the knowledge you shared, and most importantly, the memories we’ll never forget. We’ll absolutely be back.
What a wonderful review!! I am Capt Corey and its great to see a review this great about a captain that is employed by out company. Thank you again and look forward to taking you all again someday!!
1st off, the trip was after Thanksgiving, and weather took a turn… Captin called early and asked if we wanted to move trip back a few hours to see if weather would get better so we did. The temperature got better but wind did not. Captin took us to a spot that wasn’t his 1st choice but stated we could catch some fish to start off. We fished a few minutes and didn’t get the fish we wanted. We proceeded to move a little farther down (away from another boat who moved in on us) and then caught some nice sand trout. After some fun action we moved to try for some other type of fish. We hooked into bigger fish and it was awesome. Captain was knowledgeable and friendly. We had a blast, especially for conditions. We may return in twice over the next 3 months for other trips. This group is knowledgeable and professional.
What an awesome review!! As the owner it’s awesome to read reviews like this. Hope to see you guys again and we are so glad we were able to take you all out!!
