He is going to need a netman.
Hmmphf---and all this time I thought it was a reading library.
I have traveled that bridge hundreds of times since it's been built but have seen this only one time. Years ago I was heading west one early Sunday morning on a fall day and there was no traffic to speek of. About a half mile before the tunnel to the north I could see fish breaking and figured it was mullet,boy was I wrong. Once I realized what it was I pulled off to the side,got out of my truck and watched hundreds,if not thousands of specs and reds in a feeding frenzy on an acre plus school of shrimp below me. It was an amazing sight and If I had tackle with me I would have been happy to pay the fine to have braging rights about catching a fish from the Bay Way.
LOL, saw that pic yesterday on Mobile Traffics Facebook page... When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
I got stuck in a bit of that traffic, but have the sense to get off and go through Bay Minette to 65 and come back down.
I cross the Bay Bridge quite often in the early morning hours and as a trucker have a better view of the flats/water next to the bridges than most drivers.
On numerous occasions I've seen large schools of Reds tailing in the shallow marshes, and I've also seen one huge Alligator Gar.
There are no fish in them there shallows.
