Mobile Bay, Dauphin Island and Gulf Shores Fishing Report for February 3-9, 2025

1 hour 34 minutes

The Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report is your best resource for the Gulf Shores Surf Fishing Report, Orange Beach Fishing Report, Dauphin Island Fishing Report, Mobile Bay Fishing Report, and Alabama saltwater fishing everywhere in between.

Capt. Tanner Deas hosts the show and gives an onshore report this week. He starts off with talking to Capt. Shane Traylor about the recent cold snap and how it impacted fishing, with the trout moving from deeper water to shallower areas as the water warmed. Anglers had to adjust their lure colors and presentations to target the quality fish, and live bait like shrimp was effective when the artificial bite was tough. Seeing baitfish like mullet was key to locating the trout.

The podcast also included an interview with Captain Cody Broughton for the offshore report, who was part of a crew that caught a new state record 237 lb yellowfin tuna. They used popping and swimming lures to target the tuna, which put up an epic fight. Cody discussed his preferred offshore gear, including Yo-Zuri poppers and Jyg swimbait heads. The record tuna was donated to researchers for study, a special contribution to the scientific community.
