Parks and Wildlife biologists say redfish are abundant as spawning peaks in bays and gulf waters. Sub-adults thrive in bays, with five year olds about 30 inches long weighing 12 to 15 pounds. Fall wade fishing with a gold spoon hooks spread and live baits like shrimp or mullet prove fruitful before weather turns.
