Dead Zone Off Alabama Coast is Bigger Than Rhode Island This Year
Discover how a large dead zone off the Alabama coast, bigger than Rhode Island, affected local fishing in 2022, as explained by charter fishing captain Patric Garmeson.
Patric Garmeson, a charter fishing captain, recalls seeing “hundreds, if not thousands” of dead bull redfish floating in Bon Secour Bay during the spring of 2022.
“When you plan a fishing trip and then find out you’re in a dead zone, it can really bring down your spirits,” said Garmeson from Ugly Fishing.
