Back to running a bunch of skinny water creeks near sunset and flippin' top waters and suspending twitch baits and finding a few Redfish in the Chassahowitzka NWR here on the Florida Nature Coast.

Thanks Rob!! There's a lot of power in those spotted broom tails...and I really enjoy a tow around the back country.....LOL!! 2 hours earlier that same Hawk flew reel close from the south right by me while I was running a creek....It was too late to get that up close footage that I've been able to capture in the past.....Sea Ya!!

That's a beautiful redfish. You earned that one. That was quite a fight!
@WesLovelace5 ай бұрын
Thanks Thomas!! These big broom tail Redfish will drag you all over the back country and with all the nasty rock bottom and mangroves you really have to keep up the pressure or say goodbye to the plastic!!

Thanks Dug!! The skinny water can be a reel eye opener in the spring and intimidating to those that are not use to the clarity.....All the bottom structure is in plain sight just waiting to grab your lower unit.....LOL!! I'm just starting to find some of the big boyz and girlz that are willing to tow me all over the creeks.....Enjoy your weekend!!
