nice redfish

My dad with a nice 24 inch red and a SPACEFISH shirt!

The bite around Satellite has been a little slow, so this weekend we went to some new spots we have been looking at on the map. Sykes Creek was disappointingly murky and didn’t have much besides some small tarpon. We found much clearer water in the Indian River where there were impressively big snook and reds including one school of very large redfish. Those bigger fish didn’t want our bait, though.

We did site fish some 22-24” snook and reds in the Indian River. Also some very tiny tarpon in small schools that wanted to eat along the shorelines. The clear water makes it harder, but more exciting. And with the large schools of rays, sharks, and turtles there’s always something to see.
