I am new to surf fishing and was curious. Was told blues are running off Gulf Shores beach. What bait would one use and do they put up a good fight?
Thanks

yes they are there....also in orange beach pass. almost anything will catch them. from spoons to cut bait. i could not keep them off my line when i had baby threadfins on 2 weeks ago also caught a few on bull minnows...... and yes they fight!!

Thanks for the info

go to the pier,,,,most everyone there will help you learn how it is done...you will learn much more than just trying it by yourself... bull minnows on a fishfinder/carolina rig around the pier pilings from the bathrooms to the beach if you want to catch flounders!
