Thread: Ft Morgan fishing?

Coming down o Nov. 9th for a few days and staying out in Ft. Morgan. Have fished the Orange beach/Gulf Shores area a number of times. Will surf, pier, and do some wade fishing if possible. Good bait is so important. Is there any kind of bait shop out there? Thinking of bringing a cast net and making a ghost shrimp pump. That might make me the only person in Nebraska with both of those. This forum has been so great in the past! Thanks for any help in catching some fish. Still haven't caught a pompano yet!!!

Redfish bite should be hot over there that time of year.

Fort Morgan Marina had frozen bait last time I was there, but I don't think they've had live bait for years. (I could be wrong, I'm not regularly there)

Will it be the right time to get ghost shrimp? What is an inexpensive one I could buy or I've been looking at you tube videos to make one. Has to fit in a check in bag. Wife hates me because I always need a check in bag for my fishing stuff. Is there any need for the cast net?
