Fresh WorldClass Redfish Fishing In Savannah Georgia

Hook Into Savannah Redfish Action on the Georgia Coast

Redfish caught deep sea fishing in Savannah GA

The sun peeks through clouds. Waves lap gently against the boat. A rod bends suddenly. A flash of copper beneath the surface. The angler grips tightly. The fish darts left then right. Line peels off the reel. Muscles strain against the powerful pull. Slowly the fish tires. It breaks the surface. A beautiful redfish. Scales glisten in the morning light. The net dips. Success. A quick photo then released. The redfish swims away. Another great memory on the water.
