And every shoreline starts to look the same.
Grass.
Open lanes.
Random pockets.
But here’s the deal…
There’s one pattern that works just about anywhere redfish roam.
Texas…
Florida…
Louisiana…
Even the Carolinas.
And if you know what to look for…
You can find fish fast… even in water you’ve never seen before.

Great info Pat. Thanks
Thanks Pat…you always pack a lot of info in your vids!
Good information! I love incoming tides usually but now looking forward to trying this new technique on outgoing.
Thanks Pat can’t wait to do this looks like a great place to fish
Can’t wait to get into a small boat and onto one of these drains! I love the simple approach.
Thanks you confirmed my approach to chasing red fish
Pat. I like it. You just keep it as simple as possible.
Thanks Pat for sharing your successful approach. Great presentation.
Thanks for the tips!
Great tips Pat! As you know, we don’t really have tidal influence in the Indian River and most of Mosquito Lagoon. However, it would seem our culverts would function in a similar manner after the rains, right?
