The sight fishing bite for redfish has been on fire lately, especially during high tide windows. With the recent tide pushes, schools of reds have been sliding up shallow, grouping together and tailing aggressively across skinny flats. It’s been textbook sight-casting — clear water, backs and tails breaking the surface, and plenty of opportunities to make the perfect cast. Anglers have been reporting excellent success with soft plastics and small paddle tails rigged weedless, along with lightly weighted shrimp imitations. These reds aren’t spooky right now — if you can see them, you’ve got a real shot. If you’re looking to bend a rod and test your sight-casting skills, now’s the time to hit the flats. Conditions are aligning perfectly, and the fish are giving us a show.
