Dauphin Island Fishing Report: March 2014

Well it’s that time of year when the fishing should start to turn around for the better. If we have warm days and no more crazy weather, the spring time patterns should start. The sheepshead (convict fish) should make their annual spawning cycle to the rigs in the bay and gulf. You should be able to catch them on a wide variety of baits live and dead (shrimp, squid cut bait). Try to use 20 #mono or braid and some pretty stout hooks as their mouths are super strong. These fish get big and some of them are definitely in the double digits. They fight hard and are decent table fair. The redfish bite has been pretty good, so look for it to only get better. The trout bite has been fair to good to bad, depending on your location and weather, but that will definitely be changing to awesome very soon. Be safe and screaming drags. Call and book your fishing adventure now before the schedule fills up. Mar 1st, 2014

Mobile Bay Fishing Report: March 2014

Winter turned out to be a brutally cold one and that has water temps cooler than usual. As of the middle of February our rainfall has been less than normal. This could make for a earlier spring as long as we don't get a ton of rain. March fishing is all about finding salty water. If the rain is less than average, the Mobile River will be a good place to look for specs. The Theodore Industrial Canal is another place to find specs coming off their winter naps.Mar 1st, 2014

Shore and Pier Report: March 2014

March is finally here, gone is the harsh cold. Yes, it will be windy at times and that will make fishing difficult. No longer will we be prisoners of the living room, a television set standing guard. We are coastal anglers and it’s time to get out. Mar 1st, 2014

Kayak Fishing Report: February 2014

The cold temperatures are still around but hopefully that will be improving soon! Finding fish are a little harder with these conditions but they are still out there if you know where to look. I have been going deep to find the trout. My best fish are coming from deep dead end canals that have little to no water movement. Soft plastics like the saltwater assassin sea shad and MirrOlure softdines have been the money baits. I fish the sea shads on a 1/8oz. pro-elite jig head and let them fall slowly to the bottom. A slow retrieve with small twitches should get a bite. Same things when fishing softdines or fatboys the key is to keep tension so you can feel a strike but maintain a slow steady pace.

Mobile Bay Fishing Report: February 2014

rrr.. Enough of the cold weather already! January was a cold month. The fishing was hit or miss depending on the weather. The trout were showing up in some of their winter places in the deeper spots in the Mobile River, Dog River and Fowl River. The redfish are still thick in West Fowl River and along the coast. They are hitting the Voodoo shrimp fished under a popping cork or live shrimp if you can find them. The trout have been hitting hard baits, fished slow, or grubs on jigheads. A rattletrap also has had some success bringing in some nice trout. The normal colors for winter time are catching the trout, opening night or root beer colored grubs from Saltwater Assassin are my personal choices. Feb 1st, 2014
