Tailing Redfish

[JoeB]

Being a NE transplant now living in NC (with no desire to live anywhere else) I'm on a mission to catch my first NC Redfish. I've had good success fishing in FLA around oyster bars and the associated cuts and sloughs associated with them, so I'm pretty confident I can fish similar areas when I come across them here in NC.

I prefer to fly fish most, if not all of the time. My goal is to learn about the conditions, areas (in general terms), and all of the subtle "what to look for" when scouting out areas where I stand a decent shot at finding some tailing redfish to catch on the fly.

I've got the tackle, flies and casting ability down (I can usually place a fly inside of a 3' target area up to about 75'). Now I just need some help understanding what to look for in terms of high percentage areas to concentrate on.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
