Every week we bring you an "onshore" report for those anglers interested in a gulf shores surf fishing report or a gulf shores pier fishing report. This week, we're checking in with Capt. Adam Peeples for the offshore report. He shares recent success stories on mahi and marlin, talks about the importance of temperature breaks, and offers tips for live baiting and safely handling large fish. Plus, he drops a clever boat hack involving a pool noodle. Then, Capt. Patric Garmeson gives us the inshore report, highlighting the tail end of sheepshead season and the arrival of Spanish mackerel. He also shares strategies for targeting bull redfish in muddy water and predictions for speckled trout fishing. Finally, we hear from Nick Haddad with Return 'Em Right, who discusses the impacts of barotrauma and predation when releasing reef fish, and we wrap up with updates on local tournaments like the Convict Classic and the new Red Fish Classic.
