Two trips today! Guided T and Rich this morning. These guys are very good anglers and lots of fun to fish with. Hit the redfish and trout first thing in the upper bays and then headed west to find some pompano. No pompano today so we looked for cobia for an hour. No luck. Headed inside to sight fish some redfish and then found a school of jacks again. Lots of fun on topwater and jigs with light tackle. Please click an image to enlarge and view...
Read MoreLots of species today at Redfish University-April 17, 2010
Guided Dr. Roger Orth and friend Carl this morning. Roger wanted a mix of species today and we were up for the challenge. Started in the upper bays early with lots of nice speckled trout and redfish. The flounder were pretty tough today. After a fish on nearly every cast, we jetted for the beaches to find some pompano. Roger stuck the first fish and then we boated another. A couple more bites and a few dropped hooks then we started catching Spanish mackeral. At the next location, we were greeted by some shallow water over-sized redfish as well as some huge schools of jacks. Lots of fun sight fishing these fish in shallow water on very light tackle. The Yamaha 250 SHO covered over 60 miles of water today very, very quickly. Always a plus for fishing time! All fish caught on Berkley Gulp! Jerkshads with Marsh Works jigheads and pink/orange pompano jigs. The Marsh Works jigheads were very impressive on the large jacks. Please click an image to enlarge and view...
Read MoreThe Yamaha VMax 250 SHO is now at Redfish University-April 16, 2010
Redfish University proudly presents the Yamaha VMax 250 SHO. We are thrilled to continue to offer our clients the absolute best in saltwater shallow water fishing!! We just raised the game with the Yamaha SHO! Just finished breaking in my new Yamaha 250 SHO on my 2009 Hewes 21 Redfisher. This engine is absolutely incredible and I’ve never experienced an outboard like it!! Because I only have 2.2 hours on it, I didn’t go full throttle but I did let it breathe. Shoots the hole in a blind. Hit 64.5 mph with plenty left at 5300-5400rpm with the trim a less than half. Because of my astonishment and my hair being on fire, I didn’t look at the flow but I will really push it tomorrow morning and I will have a better report. I did register 4.6mpg at 46 mph. Equally as impressive was the way the Hewes 21 Redfisher handled at 65mph. No walking, no wiggles. I will hit 70-72mph tomorrow morning, check the fuel flow at 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 73 and report back immediately. I will also have some more photos. Tomorrow morning, Dr. Roger Orth will be the first client at Redfish U. to experience the SHO. Book your shallow water adventure now! This engine is thrilling!

Read MorePainfully slow but very nice redfish(14.5# again!) at Redfish University-April 10, 2010
Guided Dr. Jay Erickson this morning. Neap tides today but at Redfish U. we expect to catch any fish within casting distance. Doctor’s hours require Sat/Sun trips and today the weekend angler traffic was thrilling. Arrived at our first area very early and was able to stuck some quality redfish and trout before the warriors arrived. Trailered the boat to a new, more isolated location and also found a very slow bite although we managed a 7.5# under 27″ fish. Sightfished the shallows for the rest of the morning with a few redfish taken but they were really difficult. Jay and I will hit them again in a few weeks for a makeup trip since I thought the day was unsatisfactory. All fish taken on Berkley Gulp! Jerkshads rigged with Marsh Works jighead and Johnson 1/4oz. Gold Spoons. All fish released. Please click an image to enlarge and view...
