Thread: Perdido Pass?

Approximately how deep is the water at the deepest point between the jetty rocks?

Approx 9'-12' after the USACoE got done dredging it in in early '15.
A helluva lot of sand moves through there and it varies greatly with each strong tide and storm.
There are places along the wall that have been consistently much deeper (15'+) and there is a hole on the East side that is almost always scoured out by the currents and a good 10'+.

Thank you! I may do a little fishing over there when I come down on vacation.

What kind of fish are around the jetty? And what kind of big fish?

Very good question. I would like to know as well.

Redfish, sheepshead, grey snapper, specs, blues, Spanish.

... flounder, drum, ladyfish and blue runner.
LOTS of pinfish and pigfish in the late summer and early fall.

Big fish: occasionally jack crevelle, shark, even ling and king mackerel!

last year i was in the week of april 30. i caught a few flounder and some pompano off the beach side of the jetty. i walked out and fished several mornings but wasnt ever able to get a big fish. i was able to hook and large fish on about a 6" pinfish. after hooking and battling the fish for 10 minutes i lost the fish, the pinfish was still alive and showed 0 sign of being hit, no toothmarks, scales marked, or anything so not sure what it was. this year im coming the 2nd week of may with intentions of a big hookup from the jetty. any advice you guys have to help me accomplish this? and doesnt have to be a gamefish. just want something big pulling on the other end thanks

Where is this so called Jetty? i'm not familiar with the area or landmarks other than the piers along the gulf.
