I used to have a home and work out of OB Dennise, down near Bear Point. Have been a member of Mobile Big Game Club for most of my adult life, won many a tournament out of there. I always loved the kickoff to the summer tournaments as the first was Memorial Day weekend in OB. They put an 808 on the dock for that one this weekend, 45lbs shy of the AL state record and a added bonus of 1 Million Dollars. I had the 2nd largest ever caught in the Gulf until about four years ago, still the 5th at just under a 1,000lbs. I cut my teeth between there and Destin as a youngun' but too busy for me in both now days, can't sea the beach for the damned Condos. My fav celeb I used to fish out of of OB who also became a close friend was Kenny Stabler may he rest in peace, talk about a genuine good guy with a true wild side! That's some stories there now, sitting atop the hangout in Gulf Shores way back in the day with Snake, Hank, Paycheck and the like, honey hush!
Small world for sure. Bet I've turned down a dozen jobs out of there in the last 2 years. One just 2 weeks ago.
