I'm on vacation in orange beach right now, I left my boat back in BR. I'm watching guys troll the beach. What kinda baits are they trolling? Anyone have experience with this?

No idea about orange beach. But, I've had luck catching specs by trolling Rat-l-traps.

The only thing I have trolled before too, but that was on Lake P. My dad says he thinks he saw a spinner bait with his binoculars

I've seen 2 boats both catch one fish, to small to see what it is with my binoculars. They both got thrown back

I live here, so welcome and have fun!

They're trolling for Spanish mackerel, king mackerel, and possibly bull reds (some are still here) .

Stretch 25s, spoons, artificials with cigar minnows and ballyhoo.
