Default Newbie needing help

Hey guys I am very new to the saltwater fishing scene. I have no desire to know your secret hotpot I just need to know the basics of getting started. I am looking to catch Specks and reds. I need to know what type of lures to use and how to present them. I do need to know general area to fish. I will be fishing big lake mostly for reds and specks.

I got into an area yesterday that had fish striking the surface and chasing bait but I could get them to bite. I saw several red including a couple that were in the 25-30 inch class. Again I couldn't buy a bite.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I have limited time I can devote to fishing the area I live more than a hour away and my work keeps me gone at least half the time so I shouldn't be hindering any of the regulars. Thanks for any help you can give.
