Is 27" the limit on redfish? I thought the flyer said "Louisiana legal" which would include one bull redfish per angler? Am I missing something?

If bull reds are in, there are plenty of 20-30 lb fish swimming around in the channel and jetties areas. 30+ lbs would be an exceptional specimen, especially from a kayak.

If bull reds are out, then it comes down to finding the fattest 26-27" long fish, and 9-10 lbs (each) will probably take it. The long term LA average weight of a 27" redfish is 8 lbs. Redfish of that size in big lake have been running closer to 7 lbs the past few years, but once in a while a fish significantly above average shows up.
