Many anglers prefer to fish the incoming tide for redfish. Anglers typically report better fishing in most of the areas that you can find redfish inshore. The surf, bays, inlets and creeks all provide good fishing opportunities on an incoming tide. Try fishing a couple of hours before the high tide to take advantage of the peak bite. Once the high tide peaks, a slack tide will occur which means no more moving water. The bite usually slows down as soon as this happens.
