  Since I first started fishing, redfish have always been one of my favorite species to stalk and catch.  I remember the first time that I caught a red- which was an accident at best; I had no idea what the heck it was.  Since then, they've become one of my most prized species to catch on light tackle.   Now redfish are not the most challenging fish to catch on light tackle.  They can be caught by spinning gear, baitcasters, and fly fishing if you choose the right fly.  The reason they are so fun is because of their tendency to give you a run for your money even when using ultra light equipment.  Redfish can be found all over the south from Texas to Florida and as far north as Virginia.  They are a super popular species that catch on bucktails, plugs, spooks, top water poppers, jerkbaits, and fly fishing nymphs.    It's amazing how these torpedo shaped fish can create such a ruckus- even when caught on ultra light gear.   This ar...

I use a simple 10-foot leader made up of 20-pound monofilament to which is attached an unweighted, size 6/0 Owner Mutu Circle hook (this one item is indispensable; it makes the perfect loop every time). I also carry a few extra leaders of varying lengths. What Fly Line Should You Choose? Choosing the righ...
