Sciaenops ocellatus, commonly know
as the redfish or
channel bass, the redfish
is second only to the the black drum in size among the members of the drum

and has a spot or spots on the tail called eyespots. Redfish
live in the estuary as immature fish untill become mature at about 30 inches at

Redfish fishing has fast become a great fishing sport as the redfish has gained popularity among anglers. The redfish is a hard fighter and will test anyone's light tackle angling skills. Live shrimp, greenbacks, and pinfish are top choices for redfish. With a variety of spoons, jigs and topwater baits taking good numbers of redfish. Most of the fish caught inshore are juvenile's as the mature fish tend to live in nearshore to offshore waters. Redfish will school in potholes of deeper water and can also be found foraging on the bottom with their tails sticking out of the water on the flats. Redfish can be found throughout our area year-round and from about July through October can be found in large schooling numbers. During these months redfish fishing is at its hottest, with a fifty redfish day not uncommon.
