Redfish on the fly has been very good the past 2 days.

12/26 I had Ted Fannet on the boat from Ga. We fished the morning falling tide with good results sight fishing the mangrove shores and the oyster bars.

Most we caught on the 7wt using brown clousers with cooper flash.

12/27 I had Jim Crook out from North Florida. Jim did well his first time sight fishing with the fly. Again the brown clouser was the ticket.

Between the 2 trips 7 reds were released all being 22-26".
