Redfish are back in the Marsh and another beautiful Spring morning in the water

Post by MontleyYak »

I started around 8am last Saturday 4/27. The wind was fairly calm and the water temp in the marsh had significantly warmed up compared to last week. The water was really low and boy the tailing reds were everywhere. I spotted a school of reds but I blew it. However, I landed 3 reds around 21in so all in all a very good day in the water. Like usual, I made a video of the trip. Hope you all enjoy it.

Oh one more thing, this was in West Bay Galveston!

Thx for posting. What camera and I saw the hat mount. How does that work and what brand or where did you get it.

I may have to go mudding for some of those marshy reds.
