The East Flats is a well known local hotspot. The bottom is a mixture of sand and grass and it is a good place to drift or wade. The East Flats is good for trout and redfish year-round and it is especially good for trout in the late spring and early summer and for redfish in the late summer and early fall. Also, check the channel next to the small islands. This area is good for wade fishing. Wade fishing can be very rewarding but can also can be dangerous for the inexperienced angler. Watch out for holes, drop-offs, soft bottoms, oyster shells and stingrays.
