Highlights of Inshore Bottom Fishing Adventure

This Cedar Point fishing charter combines bottom fishing, surf casting, and trolling techniques to target multiple species in shallow inshore waters. Recent trips have produced impressive catches including 21-inch redfish, 23-inch bonnethead sharks, and active Atlantic sharpnose sharks. The diverse approach keeps action consistent throughout the 4-hour trip, with clear summer conditions providing excellent visibility for sight fishing opportunities.

Cedar Point's unique geography offers access to flats, backcountry areas, and nearshore structure within minutes of departure. The mix of habitats supports year-round fishing, though summer months provide peak action for redfish and shark species. Captain Ryan's local expertise ensures we fish the most productive areas based on current conditions, tides, and seasonal patterns.

Local Species Insights: Redfish

Redfish thrive in Cedar Point's shallow waters, particularly around grass flats, oyster bars, and creek mouths where they feed on crabs, shrimp, and small baitfish. These copper-colored drum are known for their distinctive black spots near the tail and powerful runs when hooked. Summer fishing in Cedar Point targets redfish in 1-4 feet of water, where they're often visible cruising the flats during incoming tides. The 21-inch redfish caught on recent trips demonstrates the quality fish available in our local waters, with larger specimens common during fall months.
