Fowl River is a great place to fish in December. The trout will be in the deep holes during the cold fronts, so use plastic jigs, or live shrimp if you can find them. Try trolling jigs or crank baits that will work the bottom. The deeper you can get your bait, the better.Alabama Gulf Coast EditionOct 24th, 2011
<strong><em>MOBILE, AL</em> – CCA Alabama and the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Marine Resources Division, have announced a partnership to complete the massive Bayou Cour Reef in Bon Secour Bay. The Bayou Cour Reef is a proposed 34-acre reef located about one mile north of the Intracoastal Waterway in the Bon Secour Bay arm of Mobile Bay. The $163,000 project is being made possible with funds from the Marine Resources Division (MRD), a $55,000 donation from the CCA Building Conservation Habitat Program, and through donations from other
sources, including CCA Alabama’s license tag program. The initial phase of the project, a rip-rap circle to contain limestone and oyster shells in the main reef, was begun by MRD in June 2011. CCA’s donations will be used to complete the first phase of the project.Alabama Gulf Coast EditionAug 1st, 2011
The fishing has been great here in the delta. There have been a lot of fish taken way up river all the way to Dead Lake. All species have been biting: reds, specks, flounder, and bass. There has been pressure on the fish, so I’m going to tell you how to load the boat with fish and get away from the flotilla of boats that are now on the water.

Merry Christmas Anglers! The fishing is still good. If the weather gets cold, the fish will be in deeper water and deep holes. If the weather stays mild, (warm: 65 degree days / 45degree nights), the fish will continue on the pattern they are on now, being every place they can be ambushing food. Mouths of rivers, flats with current, and hard bottom they seem to be feeding on everything, but they want something different. So just keep trying everything.Alabama Gulf Coast EditionMay 29th, 2011
With the constant cold fronts moving in and the colder temps, it can only signal one thing, the arrival of the trout in the rivers.
The action has been non-stop. We have been working 1/4 ounce mojo jig heads under popping corks from NO-SLACK TACKLE with a 24" leader around the points and under birds for hungry trout. Alabama Gulf Coast EditionMay 6th, 2011
