Seasonal Activity Chart
Flounder
Hunting Flounder around Fairhope requires a bit of patience and finesse, but the rewards are well worth it. Mobile Bay and the adjacent bayous are prime locations. The fall months are the absolute best, as flounder migrate out of the bayous and into the bay for spawning. Focus on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms near structure, such as docks, pilings, and grass beds. Live shrimp or mud minnows fished on a Carolina rig or jighead are deadly. A slow, deliberate presentation is key; flounder are ambush predators. The Weeks Bay Reserve area can be particularly productive, but be mindful of any restricted areas. Local tip: try gigging at night during low tide for a unique and effective way to target these flatfish. Remember to check local regulations before heading out.
