Redfish in the Banana River 12/29/10

Had a charter on the calm waters of Cocoa Beach today with Rich Morel and his son Henry.  Rich is a native from Cocoa Beach who has also been on a episode of Addictive Fishing.  We headed out ramp road at about 11:30am in search of schooling Redfish layed up on the warm shallow grass flats.  We were fishing with some new rods from TFO with Shimano Stradic reels and 10lb test Power Pro.  The lure of choice was the Berkley Gulp 4inch new penny shrimp with a Owner 5/0 hook.  Once we got to the area where I had been seeing fish we spotted a school of 50-100 fish and was able to get this double hook up with Henry, who is only 9 years old catching his biggest Redfish at 33inches.  It was a fun day for both Rich and Henry as for me too.  If your interest in catching some of these Redfish I am available and you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com
