Other ways we will target these fish is using a Carolina rig or drop shot rig fishing with live shrimp and croakers. This time of year, our bull redfish will be schooling up and making their run along the coast. Keep your eyes out, you could see thousands swimming by just attacking anything they see. They can be a lot of fun to catch and release. If you’ve never seen a big school of reds feeding, you don’t know what you’re missing. If it’s slot redfish you’re after, get up into the grass and ponds of these islands in the bays. You’ll find schools of them just cruising the flats. Swim baits will be a good choice for them because their primary diet in summer is fish. I hope your summertime fishing is just as good as ours. Hope to see you out on the water.
