Default redfish

PLO area has plenty. You can fish out of Buzzs marine down there in St Jerome's creek and the mouth of creek has them as well.

They are catchable up here, but not with dependability for us. Fishing perch spots nearest the bay using perch techniques such as spinner arm baits seems to work for many folks. I read that cutting spot into strip baits is effective. We tried it without much luck.

I bought some redfish magic lures but haven't tried them yet. They are like beetle spins but 3x as large with a colored paddletail grub and gold blade.

Anna has caught them on BW's on top/bottom rig and vert jigging (shell bottom). On vert jigging, we were drifting over a school that looked just like a nice thick school of rockfish on the FF but caught a redfish. Motored around and repeated the drift and we both hooked up redfish. Ahhh, must be a school of redfish! We've had luck with gold stingsilver and gold kastmaster.
