Background
I have loved fishing since I was a kid. I grew up saltwater fishing in Panama City and freshwater fishing around Georgia. I did competitive bass fishing for a number of years. Salmon fishing in Alaska every chance I can has also added to my love of fishing. I enjoy watching and teaching others how to fish even more than fishing myself, especially kids.
Techniques
Offshore reef fishing for red snapper is the biggest thing in Orange Beach. We will drop down cut bait to the bottom and typically will get bites almost immediately. Trolling we will use a combination of deep diving planners with spoons behind them, a streamer or two outside on top and a deep diving plug being pulled behind a Z wing downrigger. Inshore we will fish live shrimp around jetties bridges and docks looking for redfish specked trout sheepshead and flounder.
