The redfish have continued to be numerous in their shallow water winter haunts. We've had a great time chasing these fish on both light action spinning gear and flies. We've seen everything from singles and doubles up to schools of several hundred fish pushing through inches of water. There are few things cooler than watching two hundred redfish, crawling with their backs out of the water, a few yards in front of the skiff. Besides the fish, we've witnessed bald eagles dropping into the water and grabbing redfish, and ospreys caring for their young in the tree tops.
The water temps are climbing and we saw the temps break 70 degrees today...much higher than the low to mid 50's that we witnessed during the winter. With the climbing temps, a lot of these fish will start moving out of their winter haunts and settle into their warm weather homes. Pictures speak louder than words, so here's a few photos from the last couple weeks.
That's all for tonight, but I've got more pics to post as soon as I get a chance.
