The old timers say they used to migrate up the Alabama River before all them damn dams got built.
But I think its just old fishermans tales.
We all know a smoker king could easily jump a little ole dam and keep right on going.
IMO, it was the netters in the rivers that drove the freshwater migratory kings extinct...bodebum and eym_sirius like this.Carl

When I saw the thread title, and knew the fishing lately, my first thought was that this was about the POTUS

Maybe he's asking if kings are coming closer to shore (north, from their previous positon)? That's my guess.

I'm pretty sure it's still legal to net mackerel in the Black Warrior River, but I think the Red Snapper season there runs the same as the Federal season in the Gulf. It is, however, illegal to take speckled trout with any handheld explosive device or to take, or attempt to take redfish with any caliber smaller than .225. Originally Posted by CarlF

In all seriousness, I used to have dealings with a man who insisted that his father used to catch "fresh water blue marlins" in Lake Michigan (but they had all been caught). After stating this to a table full of coworkers he had earned a name, "Blue Marlin." Originally Posted by CarlF

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.

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!
