Anyone ever fished for Redfish inland along the Gulf?   I may do a charter with my Dad, and don't really know what to look for in a good Redfish charter or whatever.

I may be doing some of this just east of Bay St. Louis, MS in like 2 weeks.  If I do, will report back.

We also plan on going softshell crabbing.

where?  When?  If soon I would NOT go south of Ft Myers.  Due to more rain than usual there has been a lot of water let out of Okeechobee via the Caloosahatche river so the water clarity & fishing has been poor.

yes, its fun if you have a flyrod youll have more luck overall with some trout and possibly flounder. Shrimp is a good bait to use

We are going to be in the Gulf Shores, AL area.  I don't have a fly rod, and am not experienced with one.  I'll just use what the guide has.  Hell, I'd be OK with a Zebco and a spinner if he says that will work.  My Dad is a huge fan, so this is more for him than me.  Just some QT with Dad.

I did read that there are flounder to be had when fishing for Redfish.  That would be cool, I've never caught one before.

caught a crap ton of sand trout on shrimp in the gulf.  It was really good mild white fish.

Like you're thinking you and your dad on a bass boat type thing with a guide?

Check this out.

Look for the Blue Squares, these are F.I.S.H. sites. Basically farm ponds that are leased to the state of KS and anyone with a license can fish at. There are 2 sites just south of Baldwin City that I have fished before, had good luck at both of them.

Landed a mess of wipers fishing the spillway at Hillsdale on Saturday.

Minnow about 1ft under a bobber thrown in the whitewash.

Those 2 fish at the bottom are alien fish.

Just a standard bait hook with some bullet weights, nothing fancy.

Those were some beautiful fish pics, not sure that vid is accomplishing what they wanted.  Frowning Nemo was a little touching.
