Seasonal Activity Chart
Redfish
Sapelo Island offers a pristine and relatively untouched environment for redfish angling. The maze of tidal creeks, spartina grass flats, and oyster beds provide ideal habitat for these copper-colored beauties. Spring and fall are peak seasons, coinciding with the redfish migration. Focus your efforts around the low tide, when redfish are concentrated in the deeper channels and around oyster bars. Live shrimp, mud minnows, and crab are go-to baits, fished on a jighead or under a popping cork. A productive strategy is to pole or troll silently through the creeks, casting towards any signs of redfish activity. Be mindful of the strong tides and currents in this area. The redfish around Sapelo Island are known for their size and fight, so be sure to bring appropriate tackle!
