South Carolina's coastline can be a daunting challenge for fishermen who arent familiar with the myriad marshes, inlets, tidal rivers and creeks. Typically, becoming proficient at catching redfish from one of those unfamiliar areas would involve a long learning curve. That's why Reds was written -- to shorten that learning curve. This book is designed to get you in the right place, at the right time, with more than a clue about transforming your next fishing trip from disaster to darned good. Each chapter focuses on a different section of the coast, giving the reader a look at the history of the area, its geography and how it affects fishing, plus an in-depth look at the characteristics of the area's waterways to help an angler familiarize himself with the task at hand: catching redfish. Experts and guides point anglers in the right direction as far as seasonal trends and the effects of tides and wind on how to approach the fishery. Can you catch redfish without reading this book? Certainly. But will you catch more after reading this book? Absolutely.
