Welcome to "Shady Lady"

an Orange Beach, Alabama Charter vessel docked at Zeke's Landing.

The legendary “Shady Lady” is a custom built sport fishing vessel that year after year is one of the top producing charter boats along the entire Gulf Coast.  Capt. Brian Daniels and crew of the “Shady Lady” prides itself in trying to make every offshore charter as memorable as possible by providing excellent customer service on a sport fishing boat that is full of extra amenities that include:

• Top of line and freshly rigged tackle.
• Fighting chair available if needed.
• Hull mounted underwater lights for drawing bait and game fish at night.
• 300+ gallons of fresh water allowing for plenty of water on 2-3 day trips.
• Ride and fish from the bow safely and comfortably due to a Coast Guard approved Bow Rail.

The “Shady Lady” has gained the reputation as one of the top producing offshore charter boats along the Alabama Gulf Coast and Florida Panhandle by landing big game fish like yellow fin tuna, black fin tuna, wahoo, dolphin, amberjack and swordfish. If our charter chooses we will also offer deep-drop fishing while on offshore trips allowing for the opportunity to catch tilefish, yellow edge grouper, warsaw grouper, silk snapper, and more. Shady’s size and fuel capacity allows it to comfortably fish greater distances offshore. We have New hull mounted underwater lights, which helps draw bait and big game fish around the boat at night.

The “Shady Lady” continues its reputation as being one of the top-producing bottom fishing boats on the Alabama Gulf Coast. We consistently deliver to the dock quality catches of snapper, grouper, amberjack, trigger fish, king mackerel, cobia and other deep sea bottom fish.

Along with her long-standing reputation as one of the top performing charter boats in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores, the Shady Lady also has the distinction of being an extremely comfortable vessel regardless of the sea conditions.  She’s often referred to as a battleship! The air conditioned “Shady Lady” has three staterooms, 2 baths with a full walk-in shower, a large salon & galley, Green Egg grill, high volume ice maker, TV/VCR/DVD, Satellite radio and sleeps 8 comfortably.  These accommodations and the professional crew create the perfect fishing environment for fishing charters, especially when it comes to the overnight and multiple day Tuna, Marlin, Wahoo, Dolphin, Swordfish and shark trips.

The “Shady Lady” is certified by the United States Coast Guard to carry up to 44 passengers.  This unique classification speaks highly to the vessels’ construction along with the character of the crew and ownership.  The “Shady Lady” is one of the few charter boats outfitted with a Coast Guard Certified bow rail allowing passengers to both ride and comfortably fish on the bow.  Subsequently, the “Shady Lady’s” ability to carry up to 40 customers makes her the premier charter boat available in Orange Beach for corporate group packages.
