Local Species Insights: Redfish
Redfish in the Milton area thrive in the diverse ecosystem of bays, flats, and marsh edges. These copper-colored gamefish with their distinctive tail spot are ambush predators that feed aggressively on shrimp, crabs, and small baitfish. The local population provides year-round fishing opportunities, though many anglers consider fall and spring the premier seasons when water temperatures are moderate and fish are actively feeding in shallow water.
Successful techniques for Milton redfish include working soft plastic lures along grass lines, presenting live bait near oyster bars, or sight-fishing to tailing fish in shallow water during lower tides.
