Roger got a handful of these upper slot redfish with their backs out of the water belly crawling over grass beds not long ago Port Aransas redfish. He had so much fun his first day, he picked up a spare day only two days later! This month has been amazing with plenty of a lot of oversized redfish getting ready to go
Rogers “second” first redfish fly fishing Port Aransas Texas
The gar and shark are bonus fish if you dare pass up shots at some big redfish! Youve got to get commited and stay commited to the redfish or the sharks and gar. Neither will give you time to switch fly rods and then take a shot.
New angler Roger caught quite of a few “first” redfish on the fly!
There are still available few days open in October and November! Let’s get on’em NOW! Come on ya’ll! Lock and Load! Lets go fly fishing
We got a nice day out front and went on a scouting mission. Within just a few hours we had raised 3 from the deep and one managed to swipe the half-and-half fly aggressively from below the surface. Within 10 minutes later the jack crevelle succumbed to our game of tug and war.
Take note of the “down and dirty” fighting technique with the 11wt fly rod.
The extremely low rod angles fight the fish with the butt section of the rod which applies maximum pressure to these brutal jack fish. You’ve got to put the hurting on the jacks in town, or they will certainly put one on you!
Jack Trip Exceptions: when the weather is too rough to search open water comfortably, we may default to the flats and do some wade fishing for redfish and black drum. These are great backup plans for a day. Often times though even a standard redfish trip gets interrupted by these jackfish! So either way, book a trip anytime this summer and Capt Kenjo will be certain to put you on some fish. And with emphasis on the fish of your dreams! There are also chances to locate and target big bull redfish but please note that these big redfish are not males (as the name Bull implies). The large redfish are actually most likely females as the male red drum do not grow as big.
Ahoy! The gears are churnning and wheels a turnin!!! Here is some footage from last year to help get you fired up for this spring!!! Please excuse the quality of this footage as it was shot on an old pentax… Enjoy.
