Saturday afternoon, Cam was on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. On this week's Keepin' It Real, he tells us how he got there. ----- I was reminded about fear on Saturday. And, strangely, it was exactly what I had hoped for. Last July, I decided it was time to test myself. I had been comfortable for too long. It was time to be afraid again. Not the fear that comes danger and helplessness or the fear of someone saying Boo, but the fear that comes from gathering the wits and the strength to get yourself out of a tough situation. In my experience, that's the fear the makes you feel alive. So I decided to attempt paddling on a stand up paddleboard the full way across Mobile Bay. Just me, all by myself, on the open water. I have a sort of phobia about being in the open water. It's not a crippling phobia but it's there. At night in bed when I thought about the paddling alone across the bay, that fear of being alone, in the middle of the water on my board kept me from getting to sleep. I'd have to face this fear head on to meet my goal. I calculated that the crossing should take me about four hours. The bay is just shy of eleven miles wide where I wanted to cross. I set about training with the goal of being able to paddle a solid three hours, hoping that adrenaline during the crossing would give me the additional hour I needed to complete it. What started last July came to fruition this past Saturday. The weather was good but not great. When I pushed away from the shore just north of the mouth of Dog River, the wind was blowing out of the north about 11 mph. To head east toward my target, I had to paddle hard northeast and get blown south. Two hours after starting I was in the middle of the bay struggling to keep my mind from ambushing me. I was in the open water, there was no one anywhere near me, and if I needed help I'd have to call on my cell phone for someone to launch their boat and come find me. Fear was percolating. I was no longer facing it, I was in it. My estimate of four hours was badly off, perhaps due to not factoring the cross wind into my training. My arms ached, my legs were trembling with fatigue, and my right lat was seizing into cramps. The eastern shore of Mobile Bay didn't seem to be getting any closer. I was focusing on keeping my thoughts from getting out of control and finding energy for another stroke. Then another. Then another. Five hours and twenty minutes after launching I touched the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. I was exhausted and could only sit for twenty minutes before attempting to stand. I made it, though. I did it. Every so often it's important to remind yourself that you can do hard things. That you can face fear and get through it. And to know you have completed something that you will never ever, ever, try to do again. I'm Cam Marston and I'm just trying to keep it real.

ICYMI On Midday Mobile today Sean Sullivan invited Executive Director of Mobile Baykeeper William Strickland in to the studio to talk about dredging in Mobile Bay.   Mobile Baykeeper, joined by commercial and recreational fishermen, plans to sue U.S. Army Corps of Engineers over their failure to protect threatened Gulf sturgeon from a massive dredging project in Mobile Bay.  Listen to their conversation here:

  Seagrass loss, dredge dumping, and how you can help protect Mobile Bay's fishery—all in this week's episode. In this episode of the Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report, William Strickland of Mobile Baykeeper joins to discuss a pressing environmental issue affecting local waters: the harmful disposal of dredge material from the Mobile Bay ship channel. Strickland explains how this long-standing practice is destroying vital seagrass beds and oyster reefs—critical habitats for species that sustain both recreational and commercial fishing. The conversation covers recent advocacy efforts, including a town hall meeting and the involvement of Senator Elliot, as Mobile Baykeeper works to push for change from the Army Corps of Engineers. Listeners are encouraged to get involved by contacting elected officials and showing up to support legislative action aimed at protecting Alabama's estuary for generations to come.

I was speaking in Mobile, Alabama when I heard about this amazing phenomenon that occasionally takes place there. It's along the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. They call it Jubilee. It happens on a summer night sometime between midnight and six, and the fish, and the crab, and all the other sea critters suddenly move in very close to the shore. It's like they get so close that many of them are right up on the beach. The locals just walk along and they scoop up the fish and the crab, and they gather as much seafood as they want. Imagine what an opportunity it is for the fishermen! I mean, they can grab anything they want without going out in a boat. Now, this is believed to be caused by the sudden release of this cold, fresh water into the warm water of the bay. I've never been able to tell whether or not that's true. I've never interviewed the crab. That's what people think happens anyway. Whatever the reason, it is a great day for fishermen. It's a great day for everybody along that shore. In fact, in years past, the first one who saw it happening would holler, "Jubilee!" And then you could hear that good news being yelled from one door to another all along the shore. If I were there I would want to know too. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Rescue Window." Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Matthew 9, beginning at verse 36. It says, "When Jesus saw the crowd He had compassion because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, 'The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest therefore to send out workers into His harvest fields.'" Sometimes I've asked farmers in kind of a word association what would they come up with, you know when I say the word "harvest." And they usually say, "Ready." In other words, there's a lot of people ready for Jesus. And in many ways that might be never more true than it is today. Because we're living in a painful world, an uncertain world, a lonely world that in many ways has made people more ready for Jesus than ever. Now, watch my lips. "Jubilee!" When it's Jubilee time on Mobile Bay, the fish are desperately searching for oxygen and it brings them all within reach more than at any other time. Their need makes them reachable. This is a Jubilee moment now for reaching the lost people around you with the Good News about Jesus Christ. On the one hand they're more lost than they've ever been. They know less about the Bible and about Jesus. They don't have much sense of right or wrong. They don't go to religious meetings. But the very things that have made them lost have made them ready. Relationships are disappointing, love is hard to come by, parenting is frightening, marriage is overwhelming, stress is out-of-control, the future unpredictable, and hope is evasive. The need for real love and real peace and real security and real answers has never been more intense. People are literally gasping for emotional and spiritual oxygen. When it's Jubilee time, people know what to do. You don't sleep through it. It's a moment when there's a short time and then it's gone, like harvest. Everyone is on the beach for a catch, and that's where we as believers belong right now. This is no time for you or your group or your church to be inside doing Christian business as usual. It's time for everyone who names the name of Christ to be actively, boldly telling the people around them about your Jesus. It's a "drop everything" time to do what Jesus came here to do - to seek and to save those who are lost. If we do, we will be God's instruments to deliver dying people the life they are gasping for. Remember, the people around you are ready. They're reachable right now. So, get out where the lost people are and bring them home to Jesus. Bring them home to heaven. Send the wakeup call all along the shore line, "It's Jubilee!"

pWotD Episode 2871: Alabama Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 153,554 views on Wednesday, 12 March 2025 our article of the day is Alabama.Alabama ( AL-ə-BAM-ə) is a state in the Southeastern region of the United States. It borders Tennessee to the north, Georgia to the east, Florida and the Gulf of Mexico to the south, and Mississippi to the west. Alabama is the 30th largest by area, and the 24th-most populous of the 50 U. S. states.Alabama is nicknamed the Yellowhammer State, after the state bird. Alabama is also known as the "Heart of Dixie" and the "Cotton State". The state has diverse geography, with the north dominated by the mountainous Tennessee Valley and the south by Mobile Bay, a historically significant port. Alabama's capital is Montgomery, and its largest city by population and area is Huntsville. Its oldest city is Mobile, founded by French colonists (Alabama Creoles) in 1702 as the capital of French Louisiana. Greater Birmingham is Alabama's largest metropolitan area and its economic center. Politically, as part of the Deep South, or "Bible Belt", Alabama is a predominantly conservative state and is known for its Southern culture. Within Alabama, American football, particularly at the college level, plays a major part of the state's culture.Originally home to many native tribes, present-day Alabama was a Spanish territory beginning in the sixteenth century until the French acquired it in the early eighteenth century. The British won the territory in 1763 until losing it in the American Revolutionary War. Spain held Mobile as part of Spanish West Florida until 1813. In December 1819, Alabama was recognized as a state. During the antebellum period, Alabama was a major producer of cotton and widely used African American slave labor. In 1861, the state seceded from the United States to become part of the Confederate States of America, with Montgomery acting as its first capital, and rejoined the Union in 1868. Following the American Civil War, Alabama would suffer decades of economic hardship, in part due to agriculture and a few cash crops being the main driver of the state's economy. Similar to other former slave states, Alabamian legislators employed Jim Crow laws from the late 19th century up until the 1960s. High-profile events such as the Selma to Montgomery marches made the state a major focal point of the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s.During and after World War II, Alabama grew as the state's economy diversified with new industries. In 1960, the establishment of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville helped boost Alabama's economic growth by developing a local aerospace industry. Alabama's economy in the 21st century is based on automotive, finance, tourism, manufacturing, aerospace, mineral extraction, healthcare, education, retail, and technology.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:17 UTC on Thursday, 13 March 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Alabama on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Matthew.

The Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report is your best resource for the Gulf Shores Surf Fishing Report, Orange Beach Fishing Report, Dauphin Island Fishing Report, Mobile Bay Fishing Report, and Alabama saltwater fishing everywhere in between. Capt. Tanner Deas hosts the show and gives an onshore report this week. He starts off with talking to Capt. Shane Traylor about the recent cold snap and how it impacted fishing, with the trout moving from deeper water to shallower areas as the water warmed. Anglers had to adjust their lure colors and presentations to target the quality fish, and live bait like shrimp was effective when the artificial bite was tough. Seeing baitfish like mullet was key to locating the trout. The podcast also included an interview with Captain Cody Broughton for the offshore report, who was part of a crew that caught a new state record 237 lb yellowfin tuna. They used popping and swimming lures to target the tuna, which put up an epic fight. Cody discussed his preferred offshore gear, including Yo-Zuri poppers and Jyg swimbait heads. The record tuna was donated to researchers for study, a special contribution to the scientific community. It's all brought to you whether it's good, bad, or ugly.

This episode features a conversation with Captain Bobby Abruscato, a long-time inshore and offshore fishing guide in Alabama. He discussed the current fishing conditions in the area, noting that the warm weather has kept the fishing in a late summer/early fall pattern, with anglers still finding good numbers of speckled trout and redfish feeding on shrimp. Captain Bobby explained that as the water temperatures start to drop with the upcoming cold front, the shrimp will begin to thin out and the fishing will transition, with anglers needing to switch to tactics like topwater lures, jigs, and soft plastics to target the trout and reds. He provided detailed tips on techniques like the "do nothing drift" for fishing deep river channels in the winter. The hosts also discussed the importance of boating safety and emergency preparedness, including the essential gear that should be kept in a well-stocked "ditch bag" on the boat. They were joined by ACR Electronics to talk about Ditch Bags and the importance of having one. Mikele D'Arcangelo with ACR provides expert advice on items like EPIRBs, PLBs, and other communication and signaling devices that can be critical in an emergency situation offshore.

How do we bridge political divides to protect the places that matter most? In episode 139 Roberta Swann, Director of the Mobile Bay National Estuary Program, shares her experience uniting diverse constituencies to safeguard Mobile Bay and Alabama's rich ecosystems—even in a traditionally conservative state.  In this episode, Roberta explains how a program originally created by Congress through the Clean Water Act has become a model of bipartisan support for environmental work. Today, Mobile Bay's success isn't just measured by ecological impact but by the variety of stakeholders working together, from local government funding to community and industry voices.  Tune in as we discuss how to set aside differences by finding common ground in environmental priorities, why Alabama's biodiversity is unmatched, and how nature itself provides the blueprint for resilience in estuaries like Mobile Bay.

Dr. Marcus Drymon, a fisheries ecologist at Mississippi State University, highlights his research on an underappreciated fish species, the Jack Crevalle. Supported by organizations like the Lower Keys Guide Association and Bajio Sunglasses, this project focuses on the biology and management of an amazing species. Initially starting as a side project, Dr. Drymon's interest in the Jack Crevalle grew after realizing its ecological and recreational importance. His research has centered around understanding the fish's age structure, diet, and movement patterns, often using tagging and telemetry methods. The study reveals that the Jack Crevalle plays a crucial role in coastal ecosystems, but their population in some areas, like the Florida Keys, is declining due to factors like overfishing, prey loss, and habitat changes. Dr. Drymon emphasizes the need for proactive conservation efforts for Jack Crevalle, highlighting their importance to both recreational fishing and ecosystem health. He advocates for more research on their movements, suggesting that healthy populations in some areas, like Mobile Bay, might help replenish declining stocks elsewhere. Additionally, he has worked to promote catch-and-release practices to reduce unnecessary fish kills during fishing tournaments. He also encourages greater cooperation among scientists, anglers, and policymakers to protect this species and ensure its sustainability for future generations.
