Flounder
Flounder fishing near Bay Minette can be quite rewarding if you know where to look. Mobile Bay and its tributaries are your primary hunting grounds. Focus on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms near structure, like docks, piers, and oyster reefs. These flatfish are ambush predators, so they like to lie in wait for unsuspecting prey. The fall is the absolute best time to target Flounder as they migrate out of the bay. A local tip: drifting live shrimp or mud minnows along the bottom is a highly effective technique. Also, be aware of the strong currents in Mobile Bay and adjust your weight accordingly to maintain bottom contact. Look for subtle changes in the bottom structure, as Flounder will often congregate in these areas. Patience is key, as Flounder can be masters of camouflage.
