I have been reading the forum for a year now and this is my first post. I have finally gigged enough flounder worth posting.

I picked these up in Mobile Bay last night.  We started about 8:30 and it was slow until about 9:30 and then it was on!  It slowed down again around 11:30 and we called it a night around midnight.  We gigged 21, but only managed to put 16 in the boat.  Damn rookies!!!  We had a 6.5 pounder, two 6 pounders, and a 5.5 pounder. The largest one was 23.5 inches. No, the gut shots did not belong to me.  I told my partner,"go for the head man!!!"

I will be out there again this weekend. I will keep you posted if successful.

Hey, Bamma - any general eas that are better than others in the Bay?  I'm thinking about making the trek from Gulf Breeze and would have no idea where to begin.  Close to the Gulf @ Dolphin Island?  Any general areas would be great - thanks for the post w/ pics.

Just like your neck of the woods.  Anything close to the gulf.  They are gigging alot of fish right now at Perdido Pass in Terry Cove and Old River.  I have been to those spots several times, but only managed a few flounder. Fort Morgan is also a good spot this time of year.  They are catching them on hook and line off the pier at the Fort, so they are defintely moving.  The biggest problem with Mobile Bay is the wind.  I went Saturday night and never launched the boat.  What a let down!!  I'm going to try it again Wednesday, hopefully I will have some pics to post.

DFA ,

I'm with you now.  I just read the FWB post.  No, my cooler is blue, so don't go out and waste your money on a green cooler.
