Local Species Insights: Redfish
Redfish (also known as red drum) are one of Hilton Head's premier inshore species, prized for their strong fights and beautiful copper coloration. These fish thrive in our local estuaries, tidal creeks, and around oyster beds where they hunt for crabs, shrimp, and small baitfish. During summer months, redfish often move into shallower waters during falling tides, creating perfect conditions for sight-casting opportunities.
Captain Kim has mastered various techniques for targeting these powerful fighters, including using live bait presentations, artificial lures, and even fly fishing methods in certain locations. The 22-inch redfish caught on our recent trip represents the quality of fish available in Hilton Head's inshore waters. These fish are known for their distinctive tail patterns and hard-pulling fights that make them a favorite target for both novice and experienced anglers.
