Local Species Insights: Redfish
Redfish thrive in Hilton Head's brackish waters year-round, making them one of the most reliable targets for inshore anglers. These drum family members prefer water temperatures between 65-85 degrees and feed aggressively on shrimp, crabs, and baitfish in depths from 1-8 feet. During warmer months, redfish school up on the flats during high tide, creating spectacular sight-fishing opportunities. Fall and winter bring larger solitary fish to deeper channels and structure. Their copper-bronze coloration and distinctive black spot near the tail make them easily identifiable when cruising shallow waters.
