Tailing Redfish

josh-red-6-2-094

Redfish are feeding in the marshgrass during the “tailing tides”… We call it “tailing” when thier tails stick up out of the water as they stir around the mud with thier noses while trying to catch a fiddler crab snack. In the Lowcountry,  We call the highest tides in the summertime “tailing tides”.    It’s a perfect time to get Redfish to eat a well presented crab fly.  

Josh Whorton of the West Ashley store caught this nice Redfish while wading the flats last week.
