A bull redfish.
A battle to remember.
“October and November are my favorite months to fish for trophy redfish.” — Captain Heath
When a big red takes off, you’ll understand why. Powerful runs and the excitement of bringing a beautiful fish alongside the boat make redfish a favorite target for our fall trips.
Captain Heath chooses the day’s fishing areas around Ponce Inlet and the Indian River based on tides, weather and conditions. Whether you’re after your first redfish or hoping for a personal best, tell him what you have in mind when planning your trip.
Fishing is always an adventure: species, fish size and catches vary from trip to trip.
