where to find live bait around Gulf Shores
My family and I are vacationing at Gulf Shores in a couple of weeks and I was wondering where I could purchase live bait around the area. Any help would be much appreciated, this is our first time to the area.

The Shell Gas Station on 59 at CR12, if you just need bait.

The pier has larger shrimp than most places, they're $3.75dz. J&M has a much larger knowledge base than the pier though. After visiting J&M and speaking with them you could probably catch fish on special kitty from what you'd learn there.

measterbrook, Fresh Market Seafood at CR 10 (Shell station) usually has cigs, but the quality is on again-off again. They also have minnows and live shrimp.
If you are already on the island, do yourself a favor and go to J & M, they open earlier than Fresh Market too.
