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.

Great Experience
3 Hour Inshore Fishing Trip on March 23, 20262 adults1 child
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.

Awsome Trip
4 Hour Inshore Fishing Trip on May 19, 20266 adults
Took my boys in May. Captain Braden took care of us from start to finish! We caught spanish mackeral, mangrove snapper, blue fish, flounder, red snapper, grouper, soap fish and hard tail. There was 6 of us, but only 4 that went to fish. We had plenty if room. I would recommend Captain Braden and this inshore trip to anyone that wants to catch fish. We had a great time!!

Great Trip
3 Hour Inshore Fishing Trip on May 14, 20265 adults
We did not have great luck with the fish wanting to bite but our captain did an excellent job taking us around to find better bites. Although, we didn’t catch anything worth keeping to eat, we did see a vast array of sealife including a dolphin referred to as “halftail”! Braden was an excellent captian and we would be happy to venture out with him again!

Rough weather and still able to put fish on the boat
3 Hour Inshore Fishing Trip on November 29, 20252 adults
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.
