June and July were good months for Redfish on the grass flats in the Tampa Bay area. This was one
of two double catches of Redfish on this trip. We were using live scaled sardines for bait. The Redfish were
easily spooked in only two feet of water. It was important to be quiet on the boat in order to get close enough for
a cast. All the Redfish caught on this trip were released.
This nice Redfish was one of four caught this trip. We were using
an artificial jig called the Exude D.A.R.T. made by MisterTwister. It is my favorite and a very versatile jig.
Fishing on the shallow grass flats in the Dunedin area was very productive
in May. Art released all fish caught on this trip. Redfish in the 5 - 12 lb. range are the most common in the
shallows but can reach lengths of over 35 inches.
