schooling red--need help

Ok where is the best areas to look for schooling reds? Like mud flats oyster flats, etc. And do you just throw a lure up in there and see if one bites. I have been thinking that the bays should have them but I don’t know where to look.

“In every species of fish I’ve angled for, it is the ones that have got away that thrill me the most, the ones that keep fresh in my memory. So I say it is good to lose fish. If we didn’t, much of the thrill of angling would be gone.” Ray Bergman
