I'm sorry that I do not have to spend hundreds of dollars to hire a Thierry guide to put me on fish or buy a 100,000 boat.  All I need is my 07 21 Cape Horn and a bottom machine.  Please don't be jealous.  Anytime you guys posting about the Mobile Rig Divers want to catch fish with a rod n reel or shoot um with  a speargun let me know we'll put u on the fish. Also, I have never received a ticket for undersized fish but I have been checked twice. Mobile Rig Divers Out!

In response to Allen:

Ask any "Mobile Rig Diver" about the fines for taking undersized snapper.  They should be bale to tell you.  They are they area's leading authority on the subject.

Does anyone know what the fine is on keeping to many snapper. Is it by the pound, inch, or fish. I am sure it is high, just curious how high.

Tic Tack Tucker

Dear Mr Tucker,
I have to say that is one finest jobs of Eating Crow I have ever seen! In case your not familiar with the term, here is an explanation:

To Eat Crow:

When you have made a serious error and need to acknowledge it humbly, it is highly probable that the expression you use to describe the process has something to do with food.

The best-known traditional expression of this type in the US is to eat crow. The origin seems fairly obvious: the meat of the crow, being a carnivore, is presumably rank and extremely distasteful, and the experience is easily equated to the mental anguish of being forced to admit one’s fallibility.

Good Luck in your Future Indeavors Mr Tucker! And to other Fellow Sportsman out there, Please be weary of the Vermen out there that prey on the Good Guys!! The Species is really Sneaky, and will have his hooks in you well before you know it!

With all the rules and regulations that we are having to follow these days as well, its only a matter of time before the Vermen gets caught breaking those rules. Vermen Usually does and will get caught!

Hey guys I am looking for a boat slip with a lift or a condo rental with slip... I was keeping the boat down to Ft. Morgan but the rates have gotten so high down there I am forced to put boat in storage inland... I have been comming down for years and it has gotten hard to afford this sport of offshore fishing... 6 years ago I was paying 237 a month and now it is over 500... Any ideas on a seasonal slip.. I have friends looking down there but NO responses yet.. I have a 30' walk around with hard top ... Orange Beach area please..

Thanks and best of spring fishing to all...

well they come and they go like the wind, my family and i have enjoyed one more enjoyable hunting season, my tucker girl (Tiffany) was able to take her fair share of bucks and doe's, the family time spent together was the most important part of the season, bro-n-laws, cousin-laws, sis-n-laws and other family members made it our best season yet, family time is great for all and when it happen in the hunting woods it is even better, we didnt take any big bucks out of our population this season, but that not important, we loved being together, we will start getting the boat ready now, so until later as always god bless tucker out

I commented on the Bucks.  he had told me he killed 8 Bucks that year. After being raised in price I would never go back nor send anyone there. Im a retired business mgr. How crude and cheap.

Man you guys just don't know about TILLMAN'S. This guy is kin to our x-SHERRIF. I don't know much about his hunting skills, but Birds of a feather flock together. Take your propellar in there and bring home one of his crack ones. Or better than that, buy a new one but be sure that you are there when the box is open. Or guest what?? It may not be what it should be. Should I tell you more?? Why not? He is big man when it come's to slapping woman and kids around. I heard of a few of our local's getting after him. He run's and hide under the bed in his house. He not allow out in Saraland. We hope he stays in Semmes.

I just started reading this forum this week. I am a land owner in Dallas Cty. Those of you who know Steve and his son Jake. Should warn them. They are going loose their hunting rights. If they are abusing the rights given to them from their land owner. I know serveral land owners in Thomaston. I plan to contact them and have these comments investigated.

Venice, LA USA

To input on a few of the recent questions. From now through April will be wahoo time on the shelf rigs. Any rig in 200' plus in blue water may hold wahoo. This is a run and gun fishery. If they are there you will catch them usually on the first two passes. Any of the minnow lures will work. My favorites are the Mirrorlure 111MR in pink or green. The stretch 30's, bomber cd30's, and braid mauraders are also popular. The wahoo move around. You may crush them on a rig one day and not get a bite the next. Just keep on the move. The Amberjack fishing is great now on all the deep rigs. The tuna tend to show up on the salt domes along the shelf. Don't know for sure which dome will be hot this year.

On the trevala rods. Go with the 5'8" they hold up better. I have 12 of them and have broken at least 8 of them. You can not use these rods to lift fish in the boat. Make sure you buy them from someone who will stand behind them. They all break in the same place obviously a blank issue. For chartering I stay away from the supper braids most of the time. They are expense and will slice you open. If a customer wraps braid around their hand and picks up a fish for a picture they will get cut. Plus the braid is less forgiving on cutlass bearings and prop seals. I use 60 pound mono on Tekota 800's for snapper. The tekota level winds are smooth and very user friendly. For trolling wahoo and kings I use Tyrnos 30's with 40 pound mono. I reeled in a couple of kings on the tyrno last trip and I was impressed with the reel. Very smooth and a great balance of speed and power. I like them much better than the  TLD 30's I replaced. I like the single speed much better because of the handle. The two speeds have a short handle. You can not get much cranking power out of the short handle. You have to use low gear just to turn the crank. The tyrno single speed has a much better feel. Just something to thing about before you buy.

We have great weather forecast starting Monday. We are open and ready to go. We will be going after tuna, wahoo, and amberjack. Give us a call, let's go fishing.

Steve's son needs to learn the rules and regulations or the Alambam DNRC.  The State of Alabama only allows 3 antlered deer per season.  Thanks for doing your part and a whole of someone else's Jake.  You are a true conservationist.

WOW!!! I went to Tillman's Propeller last week. Steve's son Jake had killed four find bucks the weekend before. He has killed six find deer this year. Everyone should go see what these Southern boys have hanging. They told me they hunt in Thomaston Al. Steve said they take 10 to 12 bucks per year with 18 to 22 inch spreads. If anyone know of any property for lease in that area how about posting a #. Buckcrazy!!!

I have been in Pasadena and have been unable to respond to some of the comments that have been made about my recent post so here ya go.  First, I know that we now live in the United States of the Offended where every kid gets a trophy but try not to let your feelings get hurt like a sixteen year old girl with all this ALabama vs Auburn stuff its all in good fun.  In fact, three of my best friends are big Auburn guys and one is an offical booster that I tailgated with this year before and after the Iron Bowl.  Second, I have probably caught more fish with na rod n reel then I have speared I just find that spearfishing is more challenging and acually takes some physical conditioning.  Its easy to drink a case of beer on a boat and drop a cigar minnow over the side.  Third, I have been waiting under the Alabama Point bridge for two days now so here you go 6449 Moffett Rd. Roll Tide!

Can any of you offshore guys provide some insight on what may be lurking around the unocal or cats paw reef this time of year?  Thinking about trying those areas the first week in Feb "if the weather will cooperate."  Didn't know what to expect this time of year as we have only fished it during Summer/Fall.  We were hoping that there may be some wahoo and was curious as to if the tuna come in that close?  

Thanks for any and all information guys.

Brad,
I love the trevally rods, they are great for jigging and are light to use with plenty of backbone.  They work fine for snapper and grouper also.

Mobile, AL USA

Need some expert advice on the optimal fishing line(s) that I should put on a Torium 30 reel.   It will hold 420/25 and 350/30.  I typically fish for kings, red snapper, and grouper.  I would like to the ability to catch bigger game fish when I can get far enough offshore to do so.  Also, I’m considering a Trevala jigging rod 5’8”.  What are your thoughts?  Thanks.

As great as Alabama fans think they're teams are year to year, they sure can't seem to dominate little ole Auburn.  Love seeing mobile rig divers pics, during the year, even if they're caught with a spear.  Sure wish he'd  learn to enjoy his football team instead of obsessing over mine.  War Eagle buddy, enjoy YOUR team if you can.

Rassie,   It is funny to me that all of your comments on the radio are geared toward Auburn.  Can you not leave well enough alone and enjoy your perfect season without downing another team.  Are you so enthralled with Auburn that you have to mention them in all that you do? Do you say your prayers at night and wish bad things to happen to Auburn's football program. You are a prototypical Alabama fan and every time you come on the radio it shows people how big of a douchebag that you truly are. Little guy, big mouth. Good Hunting.

Mobile, AL USA

In today's Press Register opinion section on al.com there is a piece entitled "Seeing the truth about red snapper" in which the author references a new red snapper assessment by the federal gummint. He goes on to speculate that based on this new assessment, the GOM Fishery Management Council will probably raise bag limits and/or extend the 2010 snapper season.  The article quotes Roy Crabtree as saying, "the total allowable catch could be allowed to increase each year."  Anybody know anything about this?
