That is a nice REDFISH Capt. Thanks for sharing...... But I have to call it like I see it....... I would have to say 3rd cousin, that fish is a limp noodle compared to Clarks...............Did you release that fish???....... If so, she will have a great chance to reach the FULL BULL statis like the fish you see at the top of the page ..............EJ

Hey Dave.... She was caught on 30 pound spinning tackle. We were in an area near Jekyll Island that has been producing very, very large reds. We were specifically targeting big reds in deep water. Did we get lucky? YEP!! :D

That would be so fun to catch one on a kayak...it'll probably take you to the Bermuda Triangle before it's all over with. HUGE FISH! Capt, are those bull reds mainly caught offshore? Can you catch them in ICW's?

We mainly catch them in the sounds and rivers. We do catch them offshore in the cold months, but we actually target them in sounds, rivers and on the breakers.

Yeah, that would be fun in a Kayak! You would have to anchor somehow, then it would be on.

Here is the world record redfish.... 94 Pounds!!! Can you imagine!!??

Makes me wonder if there are any more out there even close to this size. :huh: Pretty rare to see them much over 45 pounds anymore in GA, anyhow...

The outer banks of NC are known for big reds as well... This one came from there in 1984. The fish was 57 inches long, but an astounding 38 inches in girth!

Wow..... Absolutely, WOW!
