Hilton Head Island Fishing - Off The Hook Fishing Charters
4/22/11 Chasing Tails!
Yes it's that time of the year again to start chasing tailing redsfish on the flats. Starting now until
the end of October redfish feed aggressively with there head down in the mud and tails up in the
air in search of there favorite little morsel the fiddler crab. Today my clients and I saw a good number
of tailers at high tide and we hooked one that would have been my first of the year but unfortunately
he got away. After we left the flat on the way back to the dock I spotted a cobia cruising on the surface
and we pitched the same lure we were using for the tailing reds and hooked up on one of my smallest
rods to 20 pound cobia! The battle took a good 20 minutes and we landed and released the fish!
What A Great Fish Tale!
