REDFISH ON CUT SKIP JACK



9-3-2011--Had one of my favorite couples today. Beautiful sunrise and overall a very nice morning until it started getting hot about noon.

I knew the high tides and northwest winds would make catching trout difficult so I opted to start out looking for redfish and black drum. No black drum but the redfish bite was fantastic. We had live shrimp, dead shrimp, menhadden and cut skip jack. The only bait the reds wanted was skipjack. If we had not had skipjack I fear we would not have gotten the reds. By 10:00 o'clock the fishers had 6 slot reds and 2 tagged oversized reds for a total of 8 redfish.
