Red Snapper
While Bay Minette itself is inland, access to the Gulf of Mexico for Red Snapper fishing is certainly within reach. Charter boats out of nearby coastal towns like Dauphin Island and Orange Beach will be your best bet for targeting these prized fish. Red Snapper season is typically open during the summer months, but it's crucial to check the regulations before you go, as the season dates can change annually. Focus on offshore reefs and wrecks, as these provide the necessary habitat for Red Snapper. A local tip: book your charter well in advance, as they fill up quickly during the season. Also, be prepared for potentially rough seas, as the Gulf can be unpredictable. Use heavy tackle and quality bait, as these fish are strong and live in deep water. Pay attention to depth finders for promising structure.
