    Question First time visiting Gulf Shores and Questions

    Hi All:

    My name is Mike and I will be visiting during the first week of May. I have been reading about the area, but have some fishing questions.
    (1) Are there any recommendations for Inshore charter boats – good or bad?
    (2) A couple of places for non-boat fishing? I am pretty much catch, photo, throw em back. (3) Is a salt water license correct to fish ‘Little Lagoon’?

    Thanks - Mike

    Try Tom's Coastal Adventures. My son and I run a 26' panga boat out of Little lagoon. 251 223 7663 for more info.

    Yes Mike, a saltwater license is what you need to fish in Little Lagoon as well as any beach front.

    There are from-shore public access venues in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, just note they are all pay-to-park that time of year...


    Also at the GSPPier and other places in Orange Beach...


    And you can find limited "free" parking @ access on Mobile Street and Burgoyne Place farther west...

    Besides Tom Eberly, I can recommend David Brown, Ralph Young or Mike Peek as inshore guides.

    Thanks for the responses. I thought when I got up this morning that we would have 4 fishing, but now my G-daughter and husband want to go as well -- SOOOO - I am looking at a trip with 6. This will be fun. I will not bore everyone with many posts - Just checking the early May fishing reports and keepint my fingers crossed. -- Mike
