Kayak fishing/redfish newbie question

Just for future's sake, a question for the OB yakkers with saltwater/red's experience.

Was just down at Fripp Island, SC for a week. Brought the yak and did some saltwater inlet fishing for the first time ever. Only managed a handful of whiting and a 2-3 lb bluefish that broke off on his initial run.

My question is, looking at Google maps, where should/would you guys have gone (launching out of Russ Point on Hunting Island with the yak) to give reds a try. And on what tide, equipment , etc?
FWIW I overheard some guys talking about the reds tailing in some of the bays, but being new to this type of fishing I was without clue.

Any info for next years trip would be appreciated.


PS Kinda awesome, but disconcerting at the same time, fishing with 6 and 7 ft dolphin continually breaching all around me (up to 20 yds away)
Not exactly something that happens on the small lakes and rivers in the Upstate of SC.
