Today we’re going on a field trip, this time to the Rattlesnake Island Marsh just west of the Matanzas inlet in Saint Augustine, Florida to do a little saltwater kayak fishing. We’ll park on Rattlesnake Island and launch by squeezing through a hole in the sea wall. Is there any other way to kayak fish the saltwater marsh like a local for redfish?
This marsh is about 45 minutes north of my home marsh in Ormond Beach, Florida. It's just north of Bing's Landing. The water is crystal clear, and the marsh is beautiful and teeming with wildlife! Just north of the launch point is Fort Matanzas, which is a popular spot to tour when you visit. Be careful of the current in the inlet! It’s deep and strong. By launching on the west side of Rattlesnake Island we’ll avoid the long pedal around the Fort and those dangerous currents. Of course, the recreational boat traffic is still a challenge so be on the lookout as you cross the intercostal waterway into the marsh entrance.
Let’s go see what we can catch!

I honestly don't like fishing anywhere around St. Augustine, it's just so hard to catch a decent fish there. On the other hand....the Indian river and ponce inlet areas are A++++ check it out some time if you haven't already. BUT nothing is better than the gulf coast...any day I'd rather fish the gulf.

@KayakFishingAddict
@KayakFishingAddict 4 года назад
Hi Tramaine. Welcome to the channel! Thanks for watching and subscribing. I keep fish in the cooler behind my seat. Why don't I use a stringer? Just think about it...to catch fish, we put bait on a string and pull it through the water....if I put bigger bait on a string (the fish I catch) and pull it through the water, I could catch bigger things like dolphin or gators, and I'm not fishing for those :).

I know right! I try to throw at structure, pinch points, and the tips of islands. I think to myself, if I was playing hide and seek with bait fish, where would I hide. And then I make a cast.

I just got my PDL120 and I’m planning on going out to Matanzas soon…..how far of a pedal south is it from your launch point into the marsh?
@KayakFishingAddict
@KayakFishingAddict 2 года назад
Congrats on the new boat! I haven’t been there in some time but if they haven’t fixed the sea wall you can launch on the west side of the island and shoot straight across. If they’ve blocked launching on the west side and you can only launch on the east side then it’s quite a long way to pedal around the fort. You also have to be very careful since the current from the inlet itself will affect your path that route.

Hi Wally. Thanks for your comments and for watching. That's a phrase I chose to use to more respectfully say that he was bleeding out. I fillet fish when I'm back at the truck. I'm super glad that you survived your ordeal with the current! Essentially the east side of the island is a funnel to the open ocean and there's lot's of underwater structure that cause the currents to move in a variety of directions.
