Ive been fishing here for about a year I can find the trout and flounder but I love catching some redfish. If anyone has any tips that would be greatly appreciated. I dont have a boat or anything just so y’all know. hopefully I will have my kayak back soon just have to get it from my parents house.
Try fishing around structure trees, docks, live oyster beds etc. If you’re catching flounder and trout, redfish should be close by too! Try going to the bottom with live/fresh shrimp or fresh-cut mullet! Good luck!

Being on the water is a blessing, catching fish is a bonus!
You can also try putting a mud minnow on a jighead, casting out and slowly retrieving it along the bottom.

That’s how I catch my flounder…
May all your favorite bands stay together…
Try some live finger mullet of cut mullet around the docks. Live shrimp works well too, but sometimes you end up feeding the “bait stealers” before the reds can get to them. Good Luck !

Me too when I accidentally catch one.

Fish around marsh drains on a falling tide. Dead shrimp makes great bait.

Here is the best tip I can give you: Don’t even look a rod when there’s a new moon and super high/low tides. We tried it Saturday the 4th with minnows, shrimp, and mullet; float fishing and on the bottom and didn’t even catch a crab. Nice day on the water, but the fish were tight lipped and not in any of the many spots we tried. Fished all of the (FAST) outgoing tide and a small bit of the incoming. NADA.
If you travel the South Edisto, look out for a sunk boat on the south bank directly across from Pine Landing. DNR notified, but they already knew about it. Boat appears to be sitting almost straight up on its transom in about 12 feet of water. It will actually pivot depending on current flow, weird.

Caught some nice reds last Sat. 6/4 on mud minnows and live shrimp on the bottom near oyster beds 5 to 10ft deep. They seemed to like the mudders best

The best way to learn is time on the water. You can read tons of posts on here or other places, but there no substitute for figuring it out on your own. It takes longer, but you will appreciate it more.

Fishing for tailing fish in the this area has been pretty strong (relatively speaking) during the full and new moons.

I like current over an oysterbank you have identified during low tide. Stay away from any Key West boats. Might be me, and I seem to be bad luck lately
