For those that have been reading T.F.M. for a number of years know that I have struck out a few times with redfish. The truth is that I needed more time to work at it. I needed to fix my "trout set" issue. I needed practice dropping flies near tails or swirls in the water's surface. Lastly...and most importantly I needed to be at the right place at the right tide.
Yesterday morning was spent on a flats boat with Scott Davis of Lowcountry Fly Shop and all the pieces came together when a brute redfish that sucked in a Puglisi minnow in less than twelve inches of water, felt the hook, and then raced off the flat. Finally success.
I am wading through a couple hundred photos from yesterday's trip and will get a full post and slide show up in the next couple days.
