Fishing Alabama by Floyd Mashburn
With the second largest inland waterway system of any state, the Heart of Dixie is famous not only for its bass but also for its crappie, bream, catfish, and trout. It's also home to such saltwater species as amberjack, redfish, grouper, red snapper, and fighting tarpon, the state fish. From the Appalachian Mountains and the Tennessee River Valley of the north, to the swamps and bayous of the coastal south, Alabama takes a backseat to no other state in its wealth of angling opportunities. But how do you know when and where to fish, how to get there, and what gear to use?
