Frosty Morning Redfish Daytona/Orlando

[CaptMikeSavedow]

Had the good fortune of being invite by my friend Capt. Joe Roberts of Indian River Guides to a canoe trip on the Banana River No Motor Zone Wednesday morning. Could not leave Joe's driveway until the ice melted off the windshield of the truck. Arriving at Kars Park around sunrise, slick calm water, we started seeing some tails and fish moving about in the 45' cold water. I caught this approx. 15 pound Redfish on a medium size fresh shrimp cast next to the fish and let sit for quite while before he very very slowly moved off with it.

Fish fights were slow motion but spirited in the freezing water with only short runs.
No actual measurements or weights as the fish were not the only creatures in the canoe moving in slow motion. Then went off searching for schools of Black Drum, covered lots of water but no luck on finding the elusive Drum school. Also caught a 20" Trout on a gulp shrimp cast at a small school of slot Reds and apparently Trout. I seem to have my wool hat on backwards, don't really have horns on my head. Capt.

15 RED FISH: Outstanding job and those are some giant red fish you have in those pictures.... Would you be nice enough to explain the premier baits that you choose to use on your red fish trips???

We caught these 2 large Reds on a medium size shrimp, most often in winter's cold water shrimp is the go to bait in our area, but at times we may catch some on a small live finger mullet, when available, or even a small size piece of cut mullet. In cold water the Reds are eating a smaller size food than during the warm months. Rest of the year when warm, on my trips we catch most of our Reds on cut mullet or ladyfish, live finger mullet or pigfish, topwater plugs early morning. Capt Michael Savedow/EdgewaterRiverGuide.com

RED FISH is gaining popularity in sports fishing.... In the past ten years red fish has gained interest with many anglers through out the World... Many outdoors shows are hosting Red fish on regular basis and tournaments... It is very beautiful fish that usually can be caught close to marshes and inland shore...

Why do you think this fish has gained so much popularity in the past 10 years???
