Sam and Ron with 2 nice Reds

Sam and Ron, Brooks Fishing Club, had a good half day of Everglades fishing today.  They boated 2 nice Everglades redfish on a jig and shrimp with a popping cork.  The fish measured 26 and 24 inches and were caught in an area near  Lostmans River.  The tide was low and I had to use the electric troll motor to get around.  It will be snook season soon and we will shift tactics to get them.  Everglades snook fishing can be quite a challenge on light tackle and these fish will get acrobatic in their fight.  When this doesn't work they try for the trees, motors, and under the boat.  This Everglades fishing guide will be ready.
