For the anglers looking for a Gulf Shores surf Fishing Report, Gulf
State Park pier fishing report, Orange Beach Fishing Report and
Fort Morgan fishing report, look no further than the Alabama
Saltwater Fishing Report. Every week we bring you an "onshore"
report for those anglers interested in a gulf shores surf fishing
report or a gulf shores pier fishing report. This week we're
talking to Chris Stewart who is
giving us the Alabama Fishing report all the way from the Flora
Bama to Fort Morgan. Chris has been very successful with targeting
sheepshead from land, we get a report from the beach, and the
Whiting are biting, listen to figure out what kind of rig you need
and what kind of bait has been working. Chris has also been having
success with redfish From a boat in the backwaters around Orange
Beach and Gulf Shores.
Captain Scott Kennedy reported he has been targeting sheepshead,
redfish, and speckled trout in the tidal rivers and creeks around
Baldwin County. He's been using fiddler crabs and a split shot rig
to catch the sheepshead, and has found the trout bite to be
excellent, especially early in the morning, using suspending twitch
baits. He's been adjusting his leader strength and lure colors
based on the clear water conditions. Kennedy also discussed the
benefits of keeping a detailed fishing log to track patterns.
Captain Bobby Abruscato said the fishing has been
excellent in the tidal rivers and creeks around the Mobile Bay
area, with trout and redfish biting well. He's been relying on the
Slick Junior lure, using a light jighead to work it slowly and get
it down in the water column. Abruscato emphasized the importance of
paying attention to water levels, especially during extreme low
tides, to access the best fishing areas.
Chris Vecsey from Sam's Bait and Tackle in Orange
Beach reported good numbers of trout and redfish in the rivers and
creeks, with the falling tide being the most productive. He's also
been catching some bonus species like tarpon and stripers. Vecsey
discussed the increasing presence of snook in the area and
encouraged anglers to report any catches to help collect data on
this emerging fishery.
