The Sciaenops Ocellatus, commonly known as the Red Drum or Redfish, is a prized catch in the Gulf Shores. As we set out on our fishing charter, the anticipation was palpable. The sun was just beginning to warm the day, casting a golden glow across the water. Our captain expertly navigated the boat to a promising spot, where the redfish were known to frequent. We baited our hooks with live shrimp, the preferred bait for these powerful fish. The wait wasn't long before I felt a strong tug on my line. The fight was on!
