The sun beats down on the calm waters. A boat gently rocks in the waves. Fishermen cast their lines with anticipation. Suddenly a rod bends. The fight begins. A flash of copper beneath the surface. The net dips. A beautiful redfish emerges. Its scales shimmer in the light. Smiles all around as the prized catch is admired. Another successful day on the water. Memories are made. The joy of fishing endures.

As you set out from Haigh Boat Landing, the anticipation builds for a day filled with excitement and the potential for a remarkable catch. The surrounding marshes and tidal creeks provide the perfect habitat for these powerful gamefish, known for their distinctive spot near the tail and their impressive fighting ability.

The shallow flats and oyster beds around Hilton Head offer prime fishing grounds, where you can sight-cast to tailing reds during low tide or work deeper channels as the water rises.

The thrill of hooking into a hefty redfish is unparalleled, as these fish can grow to impressive sizes, with some specimens exceeding 40 inches in length.
