***Official Redfish Report Thread***

Szextreme, was that you fishing along the south bank of Haystacks on Saturday afternoon?

Saturday, I caught a small speck that was legal but skinny, so he went back.  Yesterday, we caught 2 blues, 1 legal speck, and 2 flounder (one legal).  And I stuck a pinfish in the gill when he messed with my gulp shrimp. 

But no reds. 

DRUMCHASER,

 MAN I WISH IT WAS IN FULL SWING ,BUT ITS JUST GETTING WARM,I CANT WAIT FOR THE FULL BLOWN RUN THIS YEAR SHOULD BE BETTER THAN LAST YEAR I HOPE

 NATIVEGUIDE,

 THANK YOU BUT WHEN YOU THINK YOU GOT THEM FIGURED OUT THEY ALWAYS PROVE YA WRONG  MOST OF THE TIME IM RIGHT ON TOP OF THINGS BUT FROM RARE TIME TO RARE TIME THEY GET AHEAD OF ME

ncpierman,

That's some nice looking grass and oyster bars.  Some nice looking fish too.  You should try tossing a topwater plug right to the edge of the grass.  Our favorite thing is to watch them try to jump on it a few times before they get hooked.  Two weeks ago Debbie had this 27" one jump all over her chug bug 5 times before she finally felt his weight and set the hook.  It was leaving wakes in the shallow water that were like little tsunamis.  She handled it perfect...7.5 lbs.

ya we hit that spot up the last part of our fishing day we went up zigzag  through the flat and then tried that opening to the creek on the southside. caught a small 12" flounder there soon as the anchor hit the water

I would love to post a couple of pics from SC, but I cannot for the life of me get the pics to post.  Anyway, we have started prefishing for the IFA down in Charleston, so I will have to blur out some background so you yanks can't get to my spot before I do.  JK!

Sunday Report:

Got out around 7 in the morning Sunday, and decided that we would do some exploring to find some Drum. With the winds ripping through early in the morning the first spot we hit within 10mins we had a nice 20" fish on and couldnt beleive it! Then about 20mins later my buddy cranked in a small puppy drum, and a flounder. We moved over to the Hay Stacks and nothing but some little croakers running through the marsh's. around 11 the wind layed down and made our way over to Middle marsh, and boy what an afternoon. With low tide being around noonish on Sunday we beached the boat and walked all around the Island we call "Zoalcast Island" little side story here........I used to not cast so well so My buddy jason would make fun of me for it. Literally we would be out and he would say cast 12 O'clock I would some how make it a 5 or 7 O'clock! And one time it came out.... My last name is Zoal and then a cast.....ZOALCAST! kinda like that movie that says ZOALTAN with the bubble rap. well this is just a little island around the middle marsh that last year at the right time held a nice school for about a week. its an offshoot just like my casting soo if you know where I'm talking about one day there will be a sign that says ZOALCAST ISLAND......anyway back to the report.

What a beautiful day to be on the water and especially walking around places that usually you would be in a boat to fish. Crystal clear water in that area almost felt like I was in the Keys. No fish were caught, but we messed around with the poles and accidently caught Jasons dog a 4month lab/pit mix in the lip and she was rather lucky the barb didnt go all the way in her mouth. Maggie Mae had her first day swimming lessons early in the morning jumping off the boat after a redfish magic, later in the after noon we couldnt keep her out of the water playing everywhere, thinkin thats why we didnt catch any she was too busy chasing the lures down. I'll post some pics up later tonight.

WENT SATURDAY AT DAY BREAK MANAGED 2 ONE AT 23.5 AND ANOTHER AT 24 3\4 HAD THE PICS BUT DELETED THEM THINKING I WAS DOING SOME THING DIFFERNT

 LOST 6 FOR THE DAY ALL NICE DRUM AND I PROBABLY WOULDVE ENDED UP WITH MORE IF I HAD LIVE MULLET,SCHOOLS OF FISH ALL OVER A COVE,ID CATCH ONE AND THEYD SPOOK SO IT WAS A POLING EVENT TO FIND THEM AGAIN WITHOUT SCARING THEM.

WENT OUT SUNDAY HUNG OVER BAD AND MANAGED ONE WITH THIS BAD WIND MAKIN THE WATER MUDDY 19 INCHES AND THE ONLY GOOD BITE IN 5 HOURS OR SO,SEARCHED BUT COULDNT FIND ANOTHER FISH,

WELL THATS IT FOR NOW TIGHT LINES AND SCREAMIN DRAGS TO YOU ALL

There is just something about that blue on the tail.  Now, if they could make a bikini in that color, I'd buy one for my wife, so I could save gas money and just chase her around the house.  I love that color.  Nice fish!

 WAY TO GO TAMJ AND MAL-PAIS
