Highlights of 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day)

Local Species Insights: Red Fish (Red Drum)
Redfish (Red Drum) are prized inshore gamefish in Milton's waters, known for their powerful runs and determined fights. These bronze-colored beauties with their distinctive black spot on the tail prefer the shallow flats, grass beds, and structure along the coastline. In July, they're particularly active in our local waters as they move closer to shore, making this an ideal time to target them.
For the best results, we use both artificial lures and live bait depending on conditions. Redfish love to cruise along shallow flats during high tide, then retreat to deeper channels as the water recedes. Their feeding patterns make them perfect targets for sight fishing on clear days, creating heart-pounding moments when you watch them pursue your bait. The average catches in our area run 18-27 inches, with larger specimens giving anglers truly memorable battles.

For your day on the water with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters, wear comfortable clothing, bring sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), and consider bringing a small cooler for beverages. Our boat is well-equipped with quality rods, reels, tackle, and all necessary safety equipment. We typically meet early morning for the best fishing conditions, but can accommodate different schedules. Your comfort and safety are our priorities, and Captain Jamie is always focused on providing both an enjoyable and productive fishing experience.
