I have shopped at southern bama for many years and they have always treated me like family and with the utmost respect! I can't say enough they are the best store on dauphin Island parkway.

So I'm not happy.ONE⭐️ because you can't give ZERO.Bought "LIVE" worms from Southern Bama on DIP.Get baby's fishing gear all set and ready to go, open the container of "30 LARGE RED WORMS"Not only are they NOT large they are dead, they've been dead so long they literally fall apart at a touch!!!!!And unless they had actually turned into the dirt they were in, there is NO WAY there were 30 to being with, much less LARGE.I pack up, take them BACK to the store, the woman *owner* says you checked them.? I said NO.I asked you where the live worms are, you showed me. Why would I ? you?So get refund and she PUT THEM BACK FOR SALE!!!! KNOWING THEY ARE DEAD!!!!I will never return. The ONLY nice thing about the store was the female employee that was on break, she was very polite. Wish she had a better place to work though.

Wanted to purchase simple crab traps and expose my grandsons to part our coastal environment. I anticipated the old fashioned family fun of my youth with learning environmental stewardship appropriate for a three and six year old. To my shock, $5.00 for a simple old fashioned drop net that cost $1.19 in most markets definitely put my faith in fairness at a loss for words. We all understand the dire situation of our current economic crisis, but this was beyond an inventory increase for survival. It was blatantly an opportunistic cost increase of greed.

Nice tackle selection but the shrimp is always nasty and rotten. Horrible bait

Been going there since forever. I'm 40 and can't remember it not being there. Everyone there are the nicest folks in the world. So helpful.

Paid for 5 dozen live shrimp. Got to my destination and realized I received maybe 3 dozen half dead shrimp in dirty brown water. Scammers.

Nice little place. Stopped in for coffee while on a bike ride. They have a Keurig, all sorts of flavors for coffee. Friendly, helpful owners. I got the French Vanilla coffee and some of those small Grandma’s cookies —the peanut butter kind. It’s just another day (for you and me) in paradise.

Terrible service. I couldn't even get someone to help me. I needed a new spinning reel and a few other things. It was in the case. I try to buy local when I can but screw this place. Don't go there.

Used to be a great gas station. Double charges people to get more money. The owner is very rude and is stealing money from people.

I buy groceries and fishing bait here often. My only complaint is that they rarely ever have live shrimp. Even early in the morning. Will recommend to others.

We bought worms. The proprietor checked each container to make sure the worms were healthy. Don’t let the bars on the windows dissuade you from conducting business here.

About to drive towards Florida,and had an electrical issue, thinking i should check fuses under the hood, i pulled in herw. not wanting to take up a pump without buying something, i bought $5 in gas, pumped, and popped the hood to pull the fuses. It wasnt a full minute later, the guy inside (Middle Eastern Man named "Ken") 2ithout warning, cuts the lights the whole place. Pitch dark. And there i was without a flashlight, and fuses laid out under the hood. it was 8:49.Sorry muther****** closed early JUST to be a d*** to somebody. Well, i told that piece of s*** what i thought of him on his way out to his car. And given what i said yo him, i can safely say there isnt a man in his FAMILY, if he let go what i said about them. So hes rude, obnoxious, inconsiderate, and a stone-cold SISSY. And that means....he'll fit right in around here.

It is a gas station,but sells lots of tackle and bait, even disposable coolers. The staff are friendly. Great place to stop in for last minute fishing trip! They have lots of live bait!
