This episode features a conversation with Captain Bobby Abruscato, a long-time inshore and offshore fishing guide in Alabama. He discussed the current fishing conditions in the area, noting that the warm weather has kept the fishing in a late summer/early fall pattern, with anglers still finding good numbers of speckled trout and redfish feeding on shrimp.

Captain Bobby explained that as the water temperatures start to drop with the upcoming cold front, the shrimp will begin to thin out and the fishing will transition, with anglers needing to switch to tactics like topwater lures, jigs, and soft plastics to target the trout and reds. He provided detailed tips on techniques like the "do nothing drift" for fishing deep river channels in the winter.

The hosts also discussed the importance of boating safety and emergency preparedness, including the essential gear that should be kept in a well-stocked "ditch bag" on the boat. They were joined by ACR Electronics to talk about Ditch Bags and the importance of having one. Mikele D'Arcangelo with ACR provides expert advice on items like EPIRBs, PLBs, and other communication and signaling devices that can be critical in an emergency situation offshore.
