King Mackerel
For anglers based near Millport, targeting King Mackerel involves a trip south to the Alabama Gulf Coast, where these speedsters roam the offshore waters. Summer and early fall are prime times, as the water warms and baitfish become abundant. Trolling is the most common method, using live bait like Spanish mackerel or blue runners, or artificial lures like spoons and diving plugs. Look for structure like oil rigs, artificial reefs, and natural bottom formations. A key tip: Pay attention to water temperature breaks, as king mackerel often congregate along these edges. Chartering a boat from Orange Beach or Gulf Shores is a great option for accessing the offshore grounds. King mackerel in this area are known for their blistering runs and powerful fights, making them a prized catch for saltwater anglers. Be sure to check regulations for size and bag limits before heading out.
