April Redfish on the Sand of the Lower Laguna Madre, with Capt. Scott Sparrow

Guiding three guides form Alaska, we fished the sand two days after a mild cold front, and discovered that there were literally thousands of redfish on the sand in schools of 10-200. The video begins with a school of 150-200 reds swimming right up to me as I videoed their approach. It was quite windy, but it didn't interfere with our fly fishing. As you can see, the sand of the Lower Laguna Madre is gin clear on a reasonably windy day. Come see me at www.lagunamadreflyfishing.com.

Hey Dr can you drift this area with live shrimp? Or do you recommend just wading this area?

Yeh, we all forget to be careful until it's too late. I did and paid mightily. But when you're hooked up, it's easy to feel bulletproof.
