Local Species Insights: Trophy Redfish

Trophy redfish in Port Aransas waters are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs in shallow water. These copper-colored gamefish cruise the flats during morning hours, feeding on shrimp, crabs, and small baitfish in water often less than three feet deep. November conditions provide excellent visibility for sight fishing, as redfish become more predictable in their feeding patterns and location preferences. The thrill of spotting a large redfish tailing in skinny water, then making an accurate cast with artificial lures, represents the pinnacle of Texas coastal fishing. Captain Cory's expertise in reading water conditions and fish behavior ensures you'll be positioned for success when these opportunities arise.
