Spinnerbaits To Catch Fall Redfish [VIDEO]

Check out the Gold Digger 2.0 Paddletail
The spinnerbait featured in this video is the Strike King Redfish Magic.
The Redfish Magic is actually packaged and sold with a different jighead and soft plastic lure than the one in the video.
Instead, I customized it and added a Z-Man Trout Eye Jighead and a Gold Digger 2.0 paddletail.
During late summer and early fall, there is a lot of runoff and water movement due to rainfall and seasonal transitions.
This setup is ideal for fishing in areas with lots of runoff or dirtier water.
Additionally, this is one of the best setups to target fish hiding in thick grass at the bottom.
The big blade on the side of the spinner displaces lots of water to try and call those fish out from the grass.
Moreover, this color combination of black and gold works excellently well in low light, murky water conditions.
As far as the jighead and paddletail customizations, you can experiment and play around with different combinations yourself to find what works.
You may need to use a heavier jighead or you might prefer another brand over what comes on the rig.
You can go as far as using jerk shads or even shrimp lures as well on this rig.
A slow and steady retrieve with the rod tip pointed up is a perfect way to throw this rig.
Every now and then I gave the lure a couple of twitches to enhance the flash but not too often.
Conclusion
Strike King Redfish Magic rig does an excellent job of mimicking a small school of bait that a fish can chomp down on for an easy and calorie-rich meal.

I will be doing this
Good stuff, Tony! Keep’em coming!
Thanks James!
Following the logic of a bait school, what are your thoughts on those ‘micro’ umbrella rigs? The small ones designed to be cast and retrieved – not trolled.
Unfortunately I haven’t tried them for inshore fishing. Seems a bit overkill especially with how finicky inshore fish can be.
Thank you SALT STRONG!
You’re welcome Terry!
How do you rig that on the line , loop knot or straight knot tied to it , I would love to see how it’s tied on .
Hey Gerard! You want to tie a knot snug to the arm of the spinnerbait. I use a trilene knot. No loop knots!
I use the redfish magic often
Great lure!
Hey, thanks for the info. I’m going to give it a try.
You’re welcome Sherry!
Good to see you gently releasing your fish. For some reason other you tube guys seem to think it’s cool to throw their released fish back in the water. It is really aggravating to watch how they handle the fish. Of course we expect nothing but class from our Salt Strong team. Great video, I’ve been using these specific spinner baits for more than ten years (much to the chagrin of guides back in the day for some reason) and they frequently caught fish when nothing else was working.
Thank you for the great feedback Kenneth! Yes I take fish handling very seriously, especially with how fragile our waters are in my area. Very sad to see how a lot of people handle fish out there. With social media, people will see one person do it and think its ok and next thing you know everyone is doing it.
Great info Tony. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome Bobby!
Definitely a very good video Tony and the catches were as well Spot On ….. I’ve use the redfish magic spinner baits for several years and they definitely work for sure ….. Covering a lot of ground or water guess I should say, they are a very good power bait the toss …. !
The video was presented well and great job with it Tony …. !!
Thank you Thomas!
