[dropcap]W[/dropcap]ell anglers it’s August and it’s hot, just like the fishing. Just about every place to fish is holding FISH. It’s all about timing. Early morning, late in the evening, or even at night. I personally like to fish at night. It’s cooler and less people, which equal more fish. The same methods for fishing during the day also work at night. Slip cork, popping cork, free lined, live shrimp, croakers, pogeys all work well. Most of the rigs are holding fish as are most of your reefs. Also Mobile River should be on fire with some larger trout soon. They just quite haven’t made it there yet because there’s so much bait in the bay. If you fish in the day, start looking for birds. We have caught fish under them already. If fishing at night, be careful for stuff floating in the water when moving from your fishing spot to the next one.
Good luck and screaming drags.
