Well folks, the redfish have been acting like they just got promoted—strutting around the flats like they own the place. We’re seeing plenty of tailing action in the mornings, which is great if you like your fish with a little drama. They're hugging the ouster bars tighter than your uncle hugs a cooler of beer on July 4th. If you can cast like you didn’t learn in a parking lot, you’ve got a shot. Topwater plugs have been hot, but don’t be afraid to toss a shrimp—live, artificial, or even the kind from last night’s takeout if you’re desperate.
