On this week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report, Butch Thierry checks in with Capt. Richard Rutland, Capt. Branden Collier, and McCoy Outdoor's Chip Duepree for a packed report on a coast that seems ready to bust loose.
Capt. Richard Rutland breaks down a strong inshore bite from the north end of Mobile Bay to the barrier islands, with speckled trout, redfish, and flounder showing up around bait, grass, beaches, ledges, rocks, and marsh edges.
Capt. Branden Collier reports trout scattered from shallow rock lines in the bay to the barrier islands, big flounder mixed in, redfish and trout on rigs, Spanish mackerel nearshore, and an offshore bite loaded with beeliners, triggerfish, red snapper, red grouper, and other bottom fish.
The episode wraps up with Chip Duepree from McCoy Outdoor, one of the show's newest sponsors, talking about McCoy's long history in Mobile and how the shop is staying stocked with the saltwater tackle, fly gear, local lures, and fishing knowledge Gulf Coast anglers need right now.
