Redfish In Shallow Water: What Flies To Use In The Grass Posted by dimefisher on Wednesday, August 20 @ 10:55:38 PDT so I recently took my dads old browning 6 wt. rod and martin s.w. reel to a bay we fish in alot. we walked out a little ways and stopped walking and just started casting out sort of just waiting for fish to show up. and i turned around and saw a bunch of spl;ashes in the water on some flats.so i walked over and there were reds everywhere. i had on a shrimp fly and casted out to a few reds that were feeding on something they would not even touch the shrimp except for one 25 inch redfish. so i traded that out for a gummy minnow and threw it out to them still nothing if anyone knows what redfish are eating in the grassflats could you tell me please The comments are owned by the poster.

Different species of bait is prevalent in certain areas at certain times. I've caught redfish on a bunch of different fly patterns, but what usually is the deciding factor on whether or not the fish see the fly is the weight of it. Re: Redfish In Shallow Water: What Flies To Use In The Grass by dimefisher on Thursday, August 21 @ 21:31:38 PDT in surfside texas just south of galveston texas the water was maybe a foot deep and i could only see theyre spots in their tales that were about 4 or 5 inches out of the water Re: Redfish In Shallow Water: What Flies To Use In The Grass by Riprock on Tuesday, October 07 @ 09:53:33 PDT Here in eastern NC we use a crab pattern in the spartina and a Clouser or something similar when fishing banks or oyster rock. Bland casting is not very productive. The crab pattern developed by Capt. Gordon Churchill in Morehead City is just a bunch of deer hair, brown feathers and some gold or bronze flash. Two strands of heavy mono serve as a weed guard. Probably any crab pattern will get a look It's more important to figure out which way the fish is heading and get the fly two feet in front of it.   Photos From The Road
