Should be someone to take you for sea trout and a redfish or two. No help for the crappie up that way. Throwing jigs around bridges might find some seatrout, I like brighter colored curl tails. Enjoy your stay and keep us posted.
Have fun and good luck!
Call Mike Huff, guide.

Caught a couple small reds from shore behind the condo this morning. Got a trip scheduled for Friday. Just wish I had a boat, I could fish everyday...
Scott- Try walking any sandy shoreline, slow-crawling Plastic DOA shrimp-type(glo-white) baits or Gulp(glo-white) for Flounder! Small weighted 1/8 oz just enough to keep bottom contact. Don't be too much in a hurry, fishing the bait to within 20 ft. of shore, sometimes they will follow/inhale @that time. Good luck 10 fish/12" minimum per angler.:ThumbsUp:ThumbsUp:fish

Gulf side or bay side? If bay side, more out of the grass than in the grass?Quote:

A lot of 50% occupancy required, mandatory masks etc. The sad part is the youth don't have the right, responsible mindset that has escalated, IMO, extremely high "numbers"!! The numbers speak for themselves when looking at the curve- b4 shut down and reopening and the disregard of masks, social distancing at youthful gatherings at beaches, boat shore parties (with media photos!) Sensible, responsibly prudent behavior is needed by ALL ...EVERYWHERE!!

Not that huge, some people wearing mask some not. Most all places seem to be open. Been a fairly normal vacation for us, once we got here. The water has been awesome. Caught some pompano, small reds, some crab and a few other fish that I’m not sure what they were this morning.Quote:

Caught 3 about 18-20" in 2 hour period. Was about 20-30 swimming around just tough to get them to bite. Wish I could have found some live shrimp.Quote:

Scott it sounds like you are having a good time. Darla is from Pensacola and I have searched for a long time to try and find a place to crappie fish down there with no luck. She has a sister down there that has a boy friend who loves crappie fishing and he mostly comes to Alabama to fish for them. Be safe and enjoy.
