Alabama - Dixie Bar in Mobile Bay
Mobile Bay Bull redfish to 30 pounds are common thrills at Dixie Bar, just south of Fort Morgan at the mouth of Mobile Bay. The bar runs north-south and is accessible from either side of the bay. Bottom fishing with live croakers or dead pogies in strong tidal currents is the favored tactic. Bring 1- or 2-ounce egg sinkers, and use them on a Carolina rig with a 20-pound mono leader. Capt. Gary Davis, Tidewater Fishing Service, 251-942-6298
Guide's Tips
Species: Bull Redfish
Guide: Capt. Gary Davis; Tidewater Fishing Service; 251-942-6298
Rig Specifics: Use a fairly large rod with 20-pound-test, brightly-colored line for drift fishing with minnows and croakers. Hook the baitfish at the end of a 2-foot leader and use a 1/2- to 1-ounce lead sinker.
Quick Tip: Fish during the outgoing tide, at depths between 6 and 40 feet.
Where to Fish: On the west side of the bay.

Want a challenge? Fish the deep waters of Okhissa Lake. At over 80 feet deep in areas the Bill Dance Signature Lake is a must. Located in Bude, MS, it's lays inside the Homochitto National Forest. The lake has a nice website too... Mark comment offensive
