Jim Basara and company were fishing with me this December 27th in the Everglades and caught this very respectable Rogers River redfish. The fish measured nearly 30 inches and weighed about 10 pounds. Very fat for a winter redfish. Jim caught this on cut ladyfish using a spinner loaded with 12 lb line. We caught several more redfish closer to Everglades City that were approaching the upper limit of 27 inches but most were released. However, Jim and company went home with a very nice bag limit.
