Edisto Inshore Charters Crankbait RedfishOn the south side of Edisto Is, the water is usually dingy, at best. While looking for redfish visually is one of most effective methods to find them, it is not as easy to do here, as it is in other areas. One of my favorite, and most effective methods, is covering a lot of water with a shallow running crankbait, like a Mann’s Baby One Minus in gold with a black back. This is “the day of one thousand casts”. I’m running the trolling motor against the current and throwing up in the shallows and covering lots of water. This lure, which gets it’s name from running less than one foot under the surface, can be thrown and run over the oyster shell beds. The subsurface strikes are heart stopping and be sure and have needle nose pliers, because the reds literally inhale this bait. I’m throwing the Minus 1 on a GLoomis 7 foot crankbait rod with a Shimano Curado baitcaster, spooled with 20# Seagar Invisex Flurocarbon. |
