Thread: bull red dauphin island?

Bull red at the dauphin island golf course on tues? Want to catch one for the first time and the temp is going to be in the mid 70sand I don't know about the salinity buy I imagine that's fine any ideas fellow anglers

Gulp with lead head or live shrimp. walk around to the point fishing the back holes for a start. if nothing there get in the car and try sheephead fishing jetty over near the fort whith the live shrimp and a cork

Best Bet.
Take the ferry to Ft. Morgan, walk out on the Point and fish chunks of mullet/shrimp on larger Carolina & drop rigs.

I would but it already takes an hour and a half for me to get to the island lol

Well the ferry doesn't take that long would it be that much better to fish bull reds there from the shore?

I've never caught a Bull Red surf fishing at DI.
But I've caught dozens of them & Big Uglies fishing at FM.

DI is good for lots of other species though.
Consistently produces catches of Specks, White Trout, Whiting, Ground Mullet & Flounder, once in awhile Pomps & Jacks.

Just my experience & $0.02

What time is a good time to get to FM point to fish any particular time?

I've caught bulls from the jetties in the fall. From the golf course I've caught slots but have never seen a bull. The Ft is THE place for bulls from the beach. Not sure about this time of year though. I've never been out there this early.

LOL Ya gotta be there to catch em ;-)
