    Fishing for spring break!

    I'm bringing my family down to Gulf Shores for spring break. (March 29-April 6) I have fished in the fall down at the pass and caught some nice Redfish, Black Drum, and Spanish... What can we expect during this time in the surf? I'm also looking at taking the fam on an in-shore fishing trip... is there anyone that you all would recommend? We are a family of 4... I know it can get expensive, not trying to break the bank. Any help would be appreciated!

    I've never taken an inshore charter. I'm sure others can recommend. Spanish might be running small but plentiful on the pier. For the surf I would go for whiting and pompano.
    People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.

    If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

    Thanks frednic--
    We caught quite a few spanish in the surf last fall... I have yet to catch a keeper pompano. We caught a bunch of 4-6" ones.

    I have used Pierless for offshore, and we had a awesome trip. He was great guy, fun to be with, worked hard to get us on the fish, and he comes from long line of family fishing.
