Kaiser Realty, Inc. is excited to announce our involvement in the upcoming, national release of the latest installment in the PBS series “Getting Away Together.” This “Vacation Rental Managers Association” powered program features four California natives as they embark on a girlfriend getaway in beautiful Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Alabama!

Making their way to one of Kaiser Realty, Inc.’s very own condos at the elegant Colonnades complex, these four best friends soon learned that they were about to have the trip of a lifetime.

Throughout the episode, the ladies use Kaiser Realty, Inc. industry partners for fun beach activities such as kayak tours, dolphin cruises and even meeting some of our furry friends at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo! When it came time to dine, the ladies made it an adventure at the world famous home of Lucy Buffett, Lulu’s.

As these ladies learned more about the culture, cuisine and southern hospitality that surrounds our beloved area, they were able to show the world how to build a truly magical family vacation experience along the sugar white sand beaches of the Alabama Gulf Coast.

The video below highlights some of the fun actives that these ladies embarked on during their stay. Let us know what you think about this mini-webisode, and don’t forget to tune in to your local PBS station this week to catch the full length episode!

Guest Blog: Winter time deep sea fishing from Orange Beach and Gulf Shores is red hot on this full day charter

Orange Beach/Gulf Shores, Alabama – January 16, 2012 Alabama deep sea fishing report. On this full day fishing trip on the big 65 foot Intimidator we had the Hilderbrand crew from Indiana onboard.

We departed Orange Beach Marina at 6 AM into rather choppy seas and headed south to the bottom fishing grounds. Mr. Hilderbrand and I had discussed the weather for several days leading up to this trip but no one onboard was sick and everyone catching all of the fish.

We caught Vermillion snapper, white snapper, some big triggerfish we then rode further on offshore. Once we got located, the big Amberjacks started to bite and I must admit I had kinda forgot how big and mean the Amberjacks are in the winter. We had a limit of big amberjack’s with some of the 50-75 pound class

Once everyone had the opportunity to battle an Amberjack it was time to start heading in so we pointed the boat toward the beautiful Alabama Gulf Coast and made the ride back toward Perdido pass.

Orange Beach/Gulf Shores, Alabama – deep sea fishing report for the charter-boat Intimidator.

The fishing has been really good when we have had the weather to get offshore. On our last full day Deep sea charter fishing trip it yielded us a limit of big amberjacks from 25 to 50 pounds. We also caught a bunch large vermilion snapper, triggerfish and white snapper.

The king mackerel will typically move in to the larger structures within 20 miles of shore and aggregate in large schools making for some really fun, line-tripping action as is the focus of attention on the half day charters. There has also been some big Triggers in close too.

On the short four hour trolling trips for redfish has been a bit of a disappointment. In the late fall, we normally see large schools of redfish migrating up and down the beach but as of this point, they have not really showed up and a [Read more...]
