I only use Suffix 832, good to see it in your lineup.

Names Devin, LET THAT DISRESPECT OUT BROTHER!

<div>My dad’s cousin was pulling an anchor up on the bow of his bay boat when he lost his footing this September. He fell head first 3-4 ft. 1-2 ft of water into mud. He’s now paralyzed from the chest down. It might not feel like it, but you got lucky. </div>
Here’s another option as well, also cheap enough to buy a couple

17-19″ is a damn respectable trout, especially in these conditions.
Respect for wade fishing 50 degree water.

Welcome Rodney,
I hail from the Mobile Bay area as well and worked in Bay Minette when I was in school, moving here about 13 years ago. All my family is still there so I get back every 2-3 weeks and keep a 17 ft bass tracker there just so I don’t have to bring a boat back and forth. I will happily trade you a bull red trip for a Tensaw Delta bass or crappie fishing trip.
Mobile river is a great place to stalk out large trout. I would target the deep holes right outside McDuffie with a half oz jighead or 1 oz. dropshot on the super deep shelf. I would also look at Fish River, Dog, and Fowl around structure. I also like Bayou Heron and the inside of Dauphin Island this time of year. Not sure when the tournament is but looking at Saturday I would go somewhere protected like Dog River or Theodore Industrial Canal, especially with all the north wind this week.
As for this community, I can tell you that it has taught me a ton about being sucessful in Louisiana and I bring a lot of it back to Alabama. Devin is super analytical and uses special-ops like planning to target fish. It’s work untraining some of the old habits I had of spot hawking but I wouldn’t go back.
CA is a good teacher but he’s also a salesman that mixes a lot of pitches about which baits are sucessful based on who is currently sponsoring him. He really can’t hold a candle to the info taught here.
The great news is as a lifelong bass fisherman this info will really take you to the next level since trout can be just as finicky.
Another good resource in Mobile is my buddy Nathan Rich (Southern Salt on youtube) and he’s constantly winning the MBKFA tournament inshore series.
Here’s a video of us up in Bayou Heron this time of year.
Good luck!

There are some guides that have banned braid on their boats because if it gets pinched (like say in a prop) that line becomes a saw.

Friday (1/17th), some autist just dropped a 8-9AM meeting on my calendar. I’m gonna see if I can get it rescheduled, if not I’ll probably just take the meeting in my car at the launch.

Stay out my way
Or you’ll pay
Listen to what I say

I’ll let you know. I got a buddy who wants to go to the MRGO but I think it’s gonna be shoulder to shoulder. In an ideal world I’d like fish the same place as another member(s) with seperate strategies and then whoever finds them first they wave the other one in. Probably goes against the lessons taught here but it’s a quicker way to cover an area, and could help to test/hone competing strategies. Also a little friendly competition makes it interesting.

Where we dropping boys?
I’ll bring tacos.

Its one of those days you wish you had a cast net on board.
Or a battery, jumper cables, and steel pole.
