REDFISH FISHING HAS BEEN ON THE TOUGH SIDE LATELY. WE HAVE CAUGHT SOME NICE BIG ONES, BUT NOT A LOT OF NUMBERS. FORTUNATELY, MOST OF MY CLIENTS LATELY HAVE WANTED TO TARGET FISH TO TAKE HOME. THE SLOT REDFISH FISHING HAS BEEN GOOD, AND WE HAVE BEEN FILLING THE COOLER WITH REDS AND SOME SPECS.
HERE IS THE DEAL WITH THE BULL REDFISH FISHING MONTHS. KEEP IN MIND THERE IS ALWAYS GOOD DAYS AND TOUGH DAYS WITH THE BIG REDFISH. THE “BULL” REDFISH ARE ALWAYS ALONG THE LOUISIANA COAST. THE TOUGHEST TIME TO GET THEM CLOSE TO THE COASTLINE ARE MID MARCH TO LATE JUNE. ALSO, SEPTEMBER. THE BEST TIME TO TARGET THE BIG “BULL” REDFISH IS MID JUNE, JULY, AUGUST, OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, DECEMBER, JANUARY, FEBRUARY, THE FIRST TWO WEEKS OF MARCH. NOT SEPTEMBER. THE HEAVIEST FISH WILL USUALLY BE IN THE WINTER. LATE MARCH THROUGH MIDDLE OF JUNE AND SEPTEMBER ARE TOUGHER MONTHS FOR BIG REDFISH, BUT GREAT FOR THE EATING SIZE REDS AND OTHER EATING FISH. THAT IS WHAT I KNOW, BUT I AM NOT ALWAYS RIGHT...
