Long Road Trip for Redfish?

[buddha]

On my bucket list is to fish for redfish. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a long road trip or maybe even flying to Texas or Louisiana and renting kayaks there.

There are some reasonable places I have seen on the internet in Louisiana with houses right on the water, mother trips, etc.

I would be up for a long road trip taking our own kayaks but it may not be cost efficient with gas and hotel costs and that long a drive but if we had enough interested maybe it would work.

Anyone that has fished for redfish in a kayak or otherwise in Texas or LA and I don't mean Los Angeles give us some details.

I think catching redfish in the marshes would be a blast.

This seems like a fairly reasonable place in the New Orleans area.

I had the opportunity years ago to fish redfish near Galveston, I could do that every day!

What techniques did you use for them and did you get any bull reds?

I guess you weren't fishing in a kayak.

I told my dad, when I go visit him in Florida, redfish/snook is on the inshore fishing to do list! His main species he targets is snook though.

My buddy is slaying them in Pensacola of piers and beaches, all too big to keep.

Too big? Is there a slot limit there?
