Join host Butch Thierry on this week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report as he returns to the mic with two powerhouse guests—Captain Bobby Abruscato of A-Team Fishing and Chris Vecsey from Sam's Bait and Tackle. Together, they deliver the latest inshore, nearshore, and offshore updates from across the Alabama Gulf Coast. Captain Bobby breaks down the hot bite in the Mobile-Tensaw Delta and tidal rivers, where clear water and cooling temps have speckled trout, white trout, and redfish feeding hard. He shares what's been working best around the bird schools, explains why drifting beats spot-locking when the fish are up high, and offers key insight into the latest trout stock assessments showing a strong, healthy fishery. Bobby also talks about conservation wins, cold-weather tactics, and why this is shaping up to be one of the best fall runs in years. Next, Chris checks in from Orange Beach with a thrilling report on nearshore tuna action. Blackfin tuna are thick just off Navarre, with 20–30 lb fish being caught from small boats and kayaks, and even a few giant Yellowfin tuna—some over 150 pounds—have shown up right off the beach. Chris shares expert advice for safely targeting these fish from a kayak, the signs to look for when tracking feeding schools, and the simple plug-and-popper setups getting it done. He also covers what's happening inshore, where redfish are aggressive, trout are still active on the flats, and pompano and bull reds are lighting up the beaches as water temps drop. Whether you're fishing from the rivers or chasing tuna off the Gulf beaches, this episode is loaded with practical tips, late-fall tactics, and the latest guide-tested patterns to help you stay dialed in on the Alabama coast.
