Fishing the Hot Months

Depending on the tide, I like to be very methodical on how I approach fishing in June July and August. The hot months can be a little more challenging; therefore, I like to make my mornings fish-specific. If we have a low tide in the morning hours, I will set my sights on fishing redfish in the back country, either site fishing a backing fish or blind fishing run outs and oyster rips. I like a 1/4 oz TBS jig, paired with a shrimp or mud minnow or a finger mullet. All good baits. Get out very early when things are still and uninterrupted. A great time to be on the poling platform being stealthy quiet. Remember, the red schools are broken up and most fish will be cruising single. One shot one chance!
If the water is high or incoming, top water and lipped diving artificials can be very effective. Know how to use your lure of choice, be in tune with it, and know what it’s doing on the pause, etc. I like to work points with bait and current, and over structure. Pick out several good places and work them at the correct times. After the sea breezes get up and the water starts to get dirty, I usually call it. Often times beach runs become good with high sun, and you can see bait pods. I find the mid day hot weather bite slows inshore, so time to go deep or plan the next mornings trip!
