Dave Got a Nice Redfish!
News from Florida. Dave – the infamous fish whisper- got a nice redfish! At first light the other day, he and his friend Pete were out hunting for reds. They set up outside a creek mouth. As you move into March, creek mouths are a good bet. Longer days and warmer temperature have baitfish, snook, and reds dropping out of the backcountry and onto the flats. And it doesn’t hurt to have a new moon stirring things up.
They encountered a fair number of 22″ reds which have been abundant this spring. Those 2 year-old fish are an excellent sign for the future. As the sun got higher, however, Dave spotted a bigger hombre – a 33″ red and fed it a fly. You got to love it!
