I've had it with the weather, the taxes, and the negativity we see everyday in the Chicago land area. I'm moving my family to Fairhope. I will be down their April 1st. Should be spending a lot of time at the pair and surrounding areas looking for advice on fishing. Looking forward to getting to meet some of you. I have been reading your post for the last two years I seldom post. Probably due to the lack of knowledge when I pertains to saltwater fishing.
Thanks John K.
Welcome then to our little slice of heaven.
How dare you say such things about your president's home town... Move on down,we'll leave the light on for ya. Saltwater fishing is not much different from freshwater,common fishing sense, watching and asking the people that are catching questions and not being scared to belly-up to a loaded rail will help you out a lot. We all get aggravated with people but don't take it personal,it's just part of pier fishing. Trust me, people out there are not bashful about letting you know if you are doing something wrong. Welcome to the forum and to South Alabama.
Proud for you....and a little jealous...:D
Come on down and stick round for our Annual Pier Picnic, you will meet plenty of new forum friends!
The picnic is usually the last Saturday of April.
+1....but a lot jealousQuote:

They hate it, they can't wait to go back to Farmington Hills or to retire to their condo down in SC....
After 3days of -19 -22 -18 i know how you are feeling. It has been a hard winter in chicago suburbs. I heard skilling say it could hit 50 next week..
Make plans to hire Pier#r for an education fishing trip. He can get you on the right track and you will truly learn lessons you can use for a lifetime.
Plan on hiring Pier#r for surf and pier tips.
Just trying to pick a home at the moment. Need to stay in Fairhope, because my son is into travel soccer and they say the high school team is really good.
From their we (family) can fish Fairhope pier, gulf shores pier, and maybe Ft. Morgan beach areas. I do have a boat so we will be out on the gulf a bit to. Any info would be greatly appreciated. everyone seems to more than willing to help. Nice to see from an outsider looking to move in.
