I'm so happy they're putting redfish in my lake (Hyco Lake, NC) it's gonna be the only lake outside Texas with redfish!

That's awesome. They get really big in the power plant lakes

Good job brother 👏 👍 🙌

Nice video guys!

That's neat really red drum in pure freshwater I heard they can survive in it and black drum as well

Classic video

Sad they actually fenced the wall, now you have to stay 200 meters from the wall.

What was that in the beginning of the video that pushed out of the overcast shallow water making a nice puff of sand/mud? Love the look on your face! Classic!

+David Beede I think it was a huge carp of some kind, I was surprised because I was on a small private lake and had no idea carp that size were in there! haha

+David Beede I hooked into one with my ultra light setup and it spooled me before I knew what happened

next time you should try gulp shrimp under a popping cork

Popping cork wouldn't work at calaveras lake im a kayak guide for brauniq and calaveras lake. The best thing to do is use shrimp and live bait on bottom. I mostly catch the reds trolling a rattle trap around the jettis. Also at the wall you can use a ballon rig with about a palm sized tilapia

+Isaac Garza If I had downriggers I would definitely be trolling. I always see y'all guides smokin' them! But yeah popping cork works great in flats and marshes. We couldn't get the bigger ones to hit any live tilapia or perch, they wanted the moving lures, and like you saw mostly chrome blue rattle traps.

why can't freshwater reds breed?

Honestly I'm not exactly sure. I think it has something to do with their eggs not being able to survive freshwater, but as soon as they hatch they can be acclimated to the fresh water.
