While mangrove snapper can be caught year-round in the waters off Orange Beach, their abundance and behavior vary with the changing seasons. Typically, peak mangrove snapper fishing occurs during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when these fish are most active and widespread along the Gulf Coast.

During the spring and summer months, mangrove snapper migrate into nearshore waters, including reefs, wrecks, and mangrove shorelines, in search of food and suitable spawning grounds.

    Captain Bobby was GREAT. The 2 hour inshore is a perfect length of time if you have kids, or if you don't know if you will enjoy fishing or not. My son has been talking about fishing forever and I found Captain Bobby via a Google search. This was the BEST DAY of our trip to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach. He's excellent and patient with kids - and will clean up your fish and cut it up and provide you with a restaurant recommendation where they will fry up your fish for you. I even caught a 40 lb Black Drum fish - and it was my first time ever fishing! 10/10.
