Bald Point 9-11-2011 *First Redfish*

[CoastalPirate]

Started fishing around 9am with my son and friend. Fished from low tide to incoming tide around 12. Sunny, around 80 degrees. Started fishing with frozen shrimp and abandoned the idea once I realized I was just feeding the pin fish. My friend and I threw golden and silver spoons, DOA natural and chartreause shrimp and Gulp new penny shrimp. No luck.....EXCEPT ON THE GULP NEW PENNY! I finally caught my first redfish!!! Will post photo when I get it from my friend. Had to release because it was waaaay too small, but it was a croaker none the less!! Also, some guys fishing around the oyster bars and the mouth of the the Ochlochnee said they caught a bluefish, pinfish and a redfish. What an awesome day!

Uh oh, now I sense you're a redfish junkie! Now that you know where they are, when you catch it's big sister you'll be over the top. Sounds like a perfect day on the water.

Once them Redfishes get in your blood you can't get 'em out. Sounds like we might have another one "hooked".
