Local Species Insights: Redfish
Redfish in the Mississippi Gulf Coast region thrive in the diverse ecosystem of marshes, grass flats, and oyster beds found throughout Gulfport's inshore waters. These bronze gamefish with their distinctive spot on the tail are known for their powerful runs and determined fights. Captain Ben targets them using a variety of techniques depending on conditions, including sight fishing in shallow water, working artificial lures along structure, or presenting live bait near drop-offs and channels.
