What they said is great advice. Let me add a few things:

The success of many fishing trips for me has come down to whether I was able to find fresh crab. It is often worth the extra effort, especially if bull reds are the target.

Croaker and Sand Trout up to 13" long are great bait for bull redfish and other big stuff. Have a big hook and a stout pole ready and hook them up as soon as you catch them.

The tide can be pretty strong there and often it is nearly impossible to keep bait on the bottom inside the jetties. If this is the case, go trough one of the cuts and fish the outside of the jetty, usually on the downwind side. I like the spots about 1/2 way between the cut and the end, though if the water is clear, sometimes a spot near the cut can be good too.

Let us know how you do.
