Local Species Insights: Redfish
Redfish are the crown jewel of Steinhatchee's inshore fishery, thriving in the shallow grass flats and oyster bars around Deadman's Bay. These copper-colored fighters are known for their powerful runs and stubborn fights, making them a favorite target for light tackle enthusiasts. In summer months, redfish feed actively in the early morning and late afternoon, often cruising visible in shallow water where sight fishing becomes incredibly exciting. Captain Chris uses a variety of techniques including live pinfish, cut bait, and artificial lures worked around structure where these fish ambush prey. The clear waters around Cross City South provide excellent visibility for spotting tailing redfish, while the popping cork technique proves deadly when fish are holding deeper in the grass beds.
