Red Hoot


Redfish are exceptionally strong fish.  Catching one is a hoot!


Florida

January, 2013
I'm staying on a small trawler in a marina near Placida, Florida.  I chose this area for one reason--because I wanted to catch some redfish.  I was in the Florida Keys the last two winters, and the fishing there is great, but there were no redfish as far south as Islamorada.  I'd spent some time around Charlotte Harbor several years ago, and  remember the fun of catching redfish.
It didn't take too long to figure out that I'd come to the right place.
