It's been a pretty brutal winter this year weather wise. The redfish bite has been strong and my crew landed 19 this morning. Going into the snow event we had a couple 50+ redfish days. Those weather events moved the fish around a little bit they are getting back to their normal routines and haunts for wintertime. We are sightfishing large schools and catching them on a variety of Saltwater Assassin plastics fished with Pro-Cure Bait Scents.

Saturday morning started off with a steady bite but tapered off toward the end of the trip, managed to catch enough for a fish fry though.
