Bull Reds
Big bull reds and black drum in gin-clear water is the name of the game right now. Whenever we get a weather window the fishing has been outstanding. The action has been nonstop throughout the morning and into the afternoon pretty much every trip.
Fall redfishing is in full swing. The smaller fish are schooled up and tailing over grass flats and the bigger fish are cruising the banks and mud flats with their backs out of the water. Fishing has been stellar out of Bayou la Batre as well as in the Biloxi Marsh. Now is the time of year to catch a redfish on fly! I'm expecting to stay on this same pattern through December.
The redfish are tailing! We have been consistently seeing both bull and slot redfish tailing in really shallow, clear water here in Alabama. This pattern should continue for the next few months. There are also plenty of tripletail in the bay right now.
