In spring, schools of baitfish move up the Atlantic coast, and the redfish follow, eating all the way. In the Texas part of the Gulf, the redfish spawn takes place in late winter or early spring. Farther north, the spawn might happen in August or September -- hurricane season. In the Indian River lagoon in Florida -- one of the few inshore spawning grounds -- the spawn typically happens in late fall. Many environmental factors affect not just the timing but also the size of the spawn.
