Alabama point wall
Anyone ever fish the wall that is just to the west of the pass? The section that is in between the gulf restaurant and the condos?

Anybody got any idea as to when or if they are going to rebuild it and allow fishing on the wall again?

I have been writing letters and emails to state officials for months.. They are passing the buck between Fisheries, Tourism, Dept of Transportation and no one has ****s enough to take action. Estimate is 15 million to repair.

This is certainly good news. One of my favorite places to fish and my wife really enjoys coming along to sightsee. Really made my day. Thanks #'r.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
