New Years Reds Galore

I’ve read guys reports on CharlestonFishing.com where they said they actually got tired of catching redfish after they had caught so many in one trip and left them biting; and I would always think to myself, “Yea, right”. Well, I owe those guys an apology. Today was the best fishing day, freshwater or saltwater, that I’ve ever had in 67 years. I caught 17 big redfish in one spot just off the ICW behind Sullivans Island. 12 of the 17 were over the slot and 2 or 3 were pushing 35-36"; and this was from my new kayak. They were all caught in 2 1/2 feet of water at dead low tide on Gulp Jerk Shads and flutter hooks; and the trick was to just let the shad rest on the bottom and twitch it once in awhile. This was the first time fishing from my new kayak and I was able to go places that my 17’ Mako never thought of going. Got to figure out how to rig up a camera on my kayak. What a great day. I can finally say it, " I got tired of catching redfish today and left them biting".

Wow, sounds like fun. I’ve been thinking about getting a kayak, I take it you highly recommend it?

thats the advantage about kaayaking… especially with your sick ride
