Had a friend that laid his rod across his lap while lighting a cigarette. An owl flew down and crabbed his lure, rod and all. They found the rig about a hundred yards up the creek. Now that would scare the sh%t out of anyone.
The guys I talked to thinks June and July are the best months for reds in our area. Of course some are caught year round. Yelp I'm almost totally bass. Once in awhile I'll bream fish or snatch mullet but mostly bass.
Hi. I live just 20 miles from Destin, Fla. ( The luckiest fishing village in the world). But I don't fish for redfish. How ever if you would like I can get any information you might need. I've caught a few reds while bass fishing and they do fight great. There is a certain time they run better than other times, that would be your best bet on finding them. I'll ask some of the ol' salts when tis is for you if you want. Bill
