Redfish are chomping!

Today was another great day on the water and an even better day for fishing. It was Chris Luthy's birthday and his wife bought him a surprise charter. What a woman! He brought a couple of buddies and we headed up the waterway. The temperature is getting up into the 60's now and last week the redfish started eating the blue crabs. With a box full of nice live crabs, we edged up the intercoastal to a flat that the redfish have been frequenting for a month or so now. It took about thirty minutes of soaking baits to get the first bite but once we did, it was on. We caught 15 big redfish, otherwise known as spottail bass, in about 2 hours. One of which was almost 35 inches. Keep in mind we are "flats fishing" in about 18 inches of water so these fish are making a ton of commotion. It was a great morning of inshore redfishing in Charleston SC to say the least.
