Three zones are available on one booking with Captain Michael Thomas: the back bay behind Orange Beach, the nearshore water, and offshore. That range is why the catch list stretches from redfish inside the passes to red snapper, amberjack, triggerfish, cobia, and king mackerel out in the Gulf, with shark fishing available by request. Thomas states more than 30 years of experience and runs the boat himself out of 26350 Cotton Bayou Drive in Orange Beach. Group size is the other defining detail: the charter is private and sized for one to six anglers rather than sold by the seat, and families are a stated focus. The same boat also runs non fishing trips in the evening, including dolphin watching, sightseeing, and eco tours, which gives a group with mixed interests a second option. Rates are not published on the site. Booking is by phone, and the site asks callers to include the dates they are available and how many are in the group, with a note that the captain may be out fishing when the call comes in and will return messages.
