Tarpon, Trout, Triple Tail, and Holiday Weekend Fishing - Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report | Lyssna här

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers a strong Fourth of July bite across the Alabama Gulf Coast, along with some important safety reminders about night running, heavy current, floating debris, dirty water, and holiday boat traffic. Butch Thierry is joined by Dylan Kiene, who helps frame a wide-ranging report that moves from tarpon and surf fishing to speckled trout, triple tail, swordfish, tuna, and nearshore snapper. Chris Vecsey of J&M Tackle starts the show with an Orange Beach report, explaining how strong current and dirty water have made tarpon fishing tougher, especially for fly anglers, but how live bait, swim baits, and carefully watching fish behavior can still pay off. He also breaks down a productive swordfish trip, including bait choice, depth, current, squid and octopus tentacles, and why the full moon in June can be so good for swords. Capt. Richard Rutland of Cold Blooded Fishing follows with a detailed speckled trout and triple tail report, covering topwater trout, Slick Juniors, Little John XLs, wade-fishing structure, nervous mullet, beach contours, crab catching, fresh water intrusion, tide lines, floating debris, and how to sight fish triple tail when the bay is stained. To close it out, Cody Broughton checks in from Dauphin Island with offshore updates on green water, swordfish, tuna, mahi, pomfret, and a surprisingly strong snapper bite on public and nearshore reefs. It's a full Gulf Coast report with plenty of practical tactics for anglers fishing through heat, holiday traffic, and changing water conditions.
