Thread: Help!! Whats biting at the Pier right now?

Heading down weds. to stay for a week. Whats hitting at the pier now? are the reds running? what about the LY's are there enough of them there yet to catch on ribbon rig and sabiki rigs? any perdito pass reports? any tips right now would be ggggrrreeeaaattttllllyyy appreciated!!!!!! I hate heading down there blind!

also any tips for catching a BIG shark? i know you can't pull them up on the pier , but any other good places to catch them. I havn't cought a shark in years and i am chomping at the bit wanting a 5fter or better!

heard of one red caught in the past week. water isnt warm enough for LYs yet. sheepshead and specks at PP . Fort morgan beach for the big shark and best shot at bull reds

honestly i wouldnt kill myself working for a fish for the next few days. neap tide. the weekend should be way better than mid week.

went to morgan last year down there for an eve. Tide was down. 50 mph winds and turned a lil cool that night. biggest thing i cought was a whiting that was bout a 1lb or so lol. . ..... any place to find out about the tides? I guess if i hit ft morgan , i would need to fish it during high tide? well if i am fishing the pier right now? what would be the better baits to use in hopes of hooking something bigger? frozen cigar minnows maybe?

also any kind of bait to be cought on the pier right now on a sibiki or ribbon rig? or am i gonna have to buy stock in frozen?

Have you even looked at the Pier Fishing Reports or Alabama Coastal Fishing boards? oke1:

Read the reports on web site you posted. Thanks a bunch. Now to all you ki.g fisherman. Will kings hit cut bait or like frozen cigar minnows fished under a float or are they mainly live bait feeders?

No need for a float, they will hit cut bait (if its cut and worked right) an frozen cigs also
