I'm ready to start fly fishing for redfish. Got a lot to learn.

Honestly, the best advice I ever received concerning redfish was to keep stripping the bait away from the fish...quickly. Like a baitfish trying to swim away, that'll trigger the red to seek and destroy.
Sounds simple but a lot of people (including myself) will stop stripping the bait as the redfish approaches and then they will just run their head.
Good thing is redfish in LA will inhale just about anything.

Strip strike. I've smacked dozens of trout guys with my push pole that refused to strip strike.
Learn your hauls. You will miss lots of fish if you can't haul.
People say redfish are stupid and will eat anything, this is partly true. However, if drop your fly line on their back, they will spook.
Presentation rules all followed closely by sink rate. Sandbar flies are pretty but if you can't get it in front the fish and down in the water column at the right speed, they are worthless.
