Dog River Lights and Backwater Bites
Friday, 20 March, 2026
This week on the Mobile-Tensaw Delta Fishing Report, Nick sits down with Wade Perry of Mobile Baykeeper and Justin Dunnam, the Eight Mile Drifter, for a conversation that covers both the health of the Delta and how to catch fish in it right now.Wade gives a boots-on-the-ground look at what’s happening in Mobile Bay, from the ongoing coal ash threat to the push to restore oyster reefs and improve water quality. It’s a reminder that the future of fishing in the Delta depends just as much on conservation work as it does on tactics and timing. Wade also shares a detailed look at fishing dock lights on Dog River, including setup, timing, and the small adjustments that make a big difference when targeting speckled trout and redfish at night.Then Justin breaks down a strong early spring bite, with bass pushing shallow, crappie staging around structure, and backwater oxbows heating up fast. The guys talk through how to approach these areas, what baits are producing, and how to adjust as fish move between shallow feeding zones and deeper structure.If you want to understand not just where the fish are, but what’s shaping the fishery itself, this is a can’t-miss episode.SPONSORSDixie Building SupplyBlack BuffaloSlipSki
