About this episode

The episode discusses current fishing conditions in the Delta, featuring insights from local anglers and conservation efforts.

This week’s Mobile-Tensaw Delta Fishing Report covers a little bit of everything happening across the Delta, from a strong crappie bite around Hubbard’s Landing to bream finally pulling up in more predictable places. Dip McMillian of Dippi Outdoors joins the show after picking up his first tournament win and explains how stained water, structure, side scan, and the “Dippi Tensaw Special” helped him find quality crappie when other anglers might have struggled. Darren Shirah of Reel Time Outdoors with Darren checks in with a bass and bream report, including why bass may be hanging around bluegill beds and how crabs, catfish, hogs, and even horse flies all fit into life on the Delta this time of year. To close the show, Meagan Fowler of Friends of the Tensaw River gives an update on the grassroots effort to protect the Tensaw watershed and explains why proposed industrial solar developments have become such a major local issue for anglers, hunters, and river communities.
