  • An increasingly popular target for flyrodders, redfish are an interesting challenge for those unfamiliar with the fish’s habits. In a recent article on Fly Fisherman, John Kuminski  explains when and where to go for your best odds of success.
  • While having the best of intentions, this angler attempts catch-and-release but misses one integral part: removing the hook and retaining the rod. Watch the video on Field & Stream.
