Will recent FW effect redfish bite in Vbay?
How will the freshwater and lower salinities effect the redfish? Will it push them further out? Will they stay but the bite will stop? |

Redfish stay in the bay 12 months a year. The rain might scatter them some but there not far. It messes up us fisherman more than it does the redfish that's for sure.

I'm going tomorrow all day. I'll be on the water at around 9. All this rain will be done by then.

yep, redfish pretty much don't care if the water is clean or dirty or salty or not, but how aggressive they are might adjust a little

Key word agressive . Cats will be moving more than reds. Reds do hunker down and school less after rain. But is it due to cats moveing? They feed the same way. But reds will clean up after um. I find with less fresh water reds become more agressive then cats.

Thanks for the input guys, maybe a good time to get some house chores done but I also believe the rain effects the fishermen more than the redfish.

They should be still hanging around might have to look for them a little harder than normal. They might not be quite as aggressive as they usually are but they will still be there.

Not unless there is a big push of fresh water coming through the ICW...which I doubt this rain. The rain directly in shallower marsh ponds can move the fish around because it will move the bait (shrimp/ shad) around. It might push a few more on to the main bay shoreline instead of being in the marsh. Go fishing.

Thats my plan too, but the backup may have some catfish stuff to see if that works, want to catch something.

Got some nice meat that way. Reds might be tailing in afternoon around 4 or 5 off west side. East side for trout if water starts to move in. |
