First of all,I do plan to go fishing! As a matter of fact, I love fishing more than eating fish. But for the family, just in case, where I can find fresh seafood right-off-the-boat? I heard that somewhere along the coast there are places you can buy seafood when the fishing boat coming back to port. Is there any place like that in GS Orange Beach area?
Thanks!
Blalocks is good but you also cant beat going to Bon Secour and stopping in at one of the dock-side stores.
Also, Rousses in GS has great local seafood, especially shrimp, at almost if not as good a price as the places in Bon Secour.
when you say "Bon Secour', are you talking about the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge areas? i found Rouses on google, seems pretty good.
Nope, Bon Secour as in the village of Bon Secour, take CR 10 to Bon Secour Hwy.
Rousses is the best grocery store chain on the Gulf Coast, period. Owned by a family out of New Orleans.
There is a local guy that docks on Bon Secour Bay and sells whatever shrimp he caught overnight. He is usually sold out by 830 to 9am every day. I think his name is Calloway. I do not have the addess but it is about six miles from hwy 59. Go northbound on 59 and turn left immediately after you cross the high bridge off the intercoastal waterway. I seem to recall that he has a sign by his driveway and you follow the driveway to the water where he docks.
For a wide variety of fish and all other seafoods I like to go over to Pensacola to Joe Patti Seafoods. it is an experience just to go there and look at all he has and you can see the workers dressing fish in the back room Google it for directions.
Billy's out County Rd. 10 to Bon Secour has just about anything you could be looking for. They will also steam your shrimp plain or Cajun and all you need is some of their horseradish and ketchup and your ready to eat.
We spent a lot of $ in there in July,wish we had 1 here great selection of every thingQuote:

Billy's or Safe Harbor Seafood in Bon Secour, it is well worth the 1/2 hr. drive from OB. Fresh and the price is right!
