Local Species Insights: Redfish
Redfish are the crown jewel of Georgia's inshore fishery, and Brunswick's waters offer some of the state's most consistent action. These copper-colored drums inhabit our salt marshes year-round, feeding on crabs, shrimp, and baitfish along oyster bars and grass edges. Spring and fall provide the most exciting fishing, when schools of slot-sized reds move into shallow water to feed. Summer brings larger bull redfish to deeper channels and structure, while winter fishing remains productive during warmer periods. The key to success is understanding tidal movement and bait patterns, which Captain Hampton has mastered through years of local experience.
