Local Species Insights: Red Lionfish

Red lionfish have become an increasingly common catch in Savannah's inshore waters, particularly around structure and deeper channels. These exotic-looking fish are known for their distinctive fan-like fins and striking red and white striped pattern. While they're not native to Georgia waters, they've established populations along the southeastern coast and provide an interesting target for local anglers. Captain Zach knows the specific spots where these fish congregate and uses targeted techniques like bottom fishing with live bait to entice them. The summer months offer excellent opportunities to encounter red lionfish, as they're more active in the warmer water temperatures that Savannah experiences during this season.
