Dauphin Island - Spearboard. com - The Worlds Largest Spearfishing . . . Best spot is bay side, grew up free diving in 10-15 ft waters flounders were good when i was growing up I'm not sure if you are in to soft shell crabbing, but ifyou head north a little between Mobile and the Island in the lowest part of the tide you can wade into knee deep shallows and really have a good time
