They are illegal in most states. Laws usually state that reptiles and amphibians can only be collected by hand or a hand held device.

Not sure about Alabama. I couldn't find any prohibition. The state does have a relativly large list of protected species though, close to 2 dozen. I would just call and inquire. I bet you might just need a fishing liscense, if that.
