Seasonal Activity Chart
Redfish
Avery Island, Louisiana, offers outstanding redfish opportunities in its surrounding brackish marshes and saltwater estuaries. The Vermilion Bay and the maze of bayous that snake through the area provide ideal habitat. Success here hinges on matching your presentation to the prevalent forage. In spring, focus on shrimp imitations fished under a popping cork near points and cuts. As the weather warms, mullet become a primary food source; switch to larger swimbaits or topwater lures. Fall brings an influx of crabs, so crab-imitating soft plastics become deadly. Pay close attention to water clarity; redfish prefer clearer water, so target areas less affected by recent rainfall or river discharge. Launching at Cypremort Point State Park provides excellent access to Vermilion Bay and surrounding hotspots. Remember to check tide charts, as moving water is key to triggering strikes.
