 We like this book. Its a tackle box sized guide to the local fishing hot spots between Gulf Shores, Alabama and Panama City , Florida; a region with year round moderate temperatures and often crystal clear Caribbean like waters and sugar white beaches to fish off.  In the region there are a lot of public pier , breakwater, and beach hot spots so it is not necessary to always drag along a boat. The westernmost part of the region is close enough to Mobile and New Orleans to be considered for a day trip.  Chapters include everything a tourist or local needs for a successful outing. Here you will find information on the best bait, tackle, and methods  included, as are important safety tips, maps showing choice fishin' holes, and local recipes for cooking up the catch of the day. One obsolete feature appears that we hope will be updated in a future republication, LORAN coordinates for some fishing hit spots. GPS has displaced LORAN now and these coordinates are no longer very useful. But that is a small portion of the book and the rest is packed with information that is not dated. We highly recommend this book to the bank, beach, pier fisherman frequenting the region. Except for those LORAN coordinates it has useful information for those trailering boats as well.

American Admiralty Books Recommended for The bank, pier, and beach fishermen visiting or residing in the region.
