September
September continues to be productive for a wide variety of fish on Mobile Bay. Fishing will remain good until we get some stronger cold fronts cool things off, then these fish will start their annual break for Mobile Bays surrounding river systems. |
August
August has been a great month for trout and Triple Tail on Mobile Bay. |
JulyJuly is here, and so are the Triple Tail (Black Fish)! Trout fishing was fantastic throughout June, and has been staying consistent in the early days of July. Flounder fishing is also starting to get good around Fairhope and Point Clear.

JuneJune was a great month, despite the many days of hard East winds. We got lucky that it was mostly Easterly winds. The whole East side of Mobile Bay iks protected from east winds, whereas the Western side of the bay is not.
Speckled Trout fishing was great around Weeks Bay, Fairhope, Point Clear and Daphne! |
4-2-12
Spring fishing is hot and heavy on Mobile Bay. The bite is great on menhaden for trout, while shrimp are doing the trick for Redfish. Had a great trip today with some great company from Atlanta, GA. We limited out on quality trout including this 27" trophy trout caught free lining shad!

March 2012
Red Fishing was great all of March. Fish River, Bon Secour River, Fowl River all held good Redfish throughout the month. Trout fishing began to heat up mid-March in the Bay along the eastern shore.

Jan/Feb 2012
It was a tough January and into February with all of the rain we have gotten locally, and especially up in the northern areas of our river systems which have flooded Mobile Bay with muddy fresh water. It has however been extremely warm this winter, which means as soon as this waters cleans up a bit that it will be an early trout bite on Mobile Bay. I will begin my spring fishing in the Bay between fronts in the coming weeks. |
Nov/Dec 2011
Another great Fall on Mobile Bay and the Alabama delta for Speckled Trout and Red Fish. |

October 2011
Fishing is heating up all along the river systems of Mobile Bay! Blakely River, Tensaw River, and Mobile River have all been very productive for Redfish, Flounder, and Speckled Trout. Artificial baits and live baits have been equally productive for me this month. Magnolia River and Fish River, which empty into Weeks Bay just south of Fairhope, AL, have been extremely productive for Specks and Reds. Live Shrimp under a cork, soft body jigs under a cork, and topwater plugs early in the morning have been productive. Redfishing is great right now and should continue to be good around Perdido Pass in Orange Beach, and Fort Morgan. Speckled Trout fishing is also improving. Orange Beach, Soldiers Creek and Wolf Creek have been productive this October. |
September 2011
Flounder fishing was great this September in Mobile Bay. I mainly focused my Flounder fishing along the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay, fishing near deepwater piers around Pt. Clear, Battles Wharf and The Grand Hotel. Mullet Point was another productive spot for Flounder, Redfish, and Speckled Trout. Towards the latter part of the month the north end of Mobile Bay was productive for Speckled Trout and Flounder as well. Deep piers around Montrose and Daphne, as well as some spots in the Blakely River all produced good numbers of fish for me. The Mobile River was also a good spot in September for Speckled Trout and Flounder. |
7-15-11
Another productive day of trout fishing on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay. After a tough time locating bait, we finally got out on this picture perfect overcast morning to go after some trout. Fishing was steady most of the morning and ended up with a nice mess of trout, and had great company to boot.

Another good morning fishing the shallows of Mobile Bay for Specks & Reds. Caught good numbers of Speckled Trout on topwater lures and live shrimp, and got on a great Redfish bite using shrimp under a cork. Finding bait in the water is the key to staying on fish, and this overcast morning made it even better!

July Triple Tail!
Triple tail fishing continues to be great in Mobile Bay. Good quality fish too with the average Triple tail being 8-10 lbs.
Trout fishing has continued to be good both early in the morning and later in the afternoon all along the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. The past couple of mornings we have fished around Fort Morgan and Sand Island catching good numbers of trout on live shrimp, as well as live croakers. |
June 2011
Fishing has been great this summer on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. Early morning trout fishing has been good in the shallow waters around piers, as well as out in the deeper oyster beds. Flounder are starting to show up in good numbers as well along the drop-offs. Later in the mornings we have been having great success with triple-tail (blackfish) fishing under submerged logs and channel markers.
