Tactics on BL reds

Seems like we always catch a couple while "trout fishing," but to specifically target reds, is there more reason in fishing
grassy points, deep ledges, structure visible on surface, jetties, etc?

Not looking for specific spots, looking for a better understanding of what a redfish does all day, where, and why.

Thanks.

Bull reds are my specialty. Here's most of what I know:

Awesome stuff on the bull reds, Ill put it to the test.
Is there anything in the way of just general red fishing I should be reading up on/focusing on?
Used to go to the washout area at edge of black lake and catch them easily as the water was always moving out into the marsh. Not even sure if that place is around anymore(?), but I can't ever seem to predict when the tides will be moving based on what the nearest tide schedules say, etc.

Any help much appreciated.

Damn...I hadn't seen that post before, but that's what I'm talking about. Fishermen helping other fishermen. Cudos to you for helping out other fishermen. There's just no reason why we can't share area info, tides, gear, etc.
