Exploration Trip To Redington Beach With Otis [Fishing Report]
- By: Luke Simonds
- on
Here’s a fun fishing report that I filmed with Otis while we explored some new waters in Redington Beach, FL.
A meetup was posted in the Insider Community platform by Mitchell Landis on a day when I had a free morning to fish, so I was thrilled to join in on the fun.
I had never fished this area before, so I spent about 15 minutes looking over some satellite imagery maps after checking the tides/wind to put together a plan.
The fish were fortunately holding exactly where they were supposed to be so I was able to get in some fun catching on a short trip even when Otis was causing a lot of ruckus as usual.

Conclusion
Sight fishing on super calm and clear days is your best shot at landing a bigger fish.
Be sure to pre-plan your fishing trips and look for areas with seagrass and deeper pockets where fish will hold to maintain stable temperatures in the cold of winter!
Try to be as stealthy and quiet as you can and even if you fish with a dog as noisy as Otis, you can still catch some fish!
