 Fly Fishing Techniques: Gurglers for Redfish - MidCurrent
So that same redfish that was so engrossed in digging for a mud crab that it never saw the perfectly presented fly might see the surface commotion of a gurgler, and mistake the fly for an escaping prey.
Long casts are usually best, because even redfish that attack the gurgler aggressively tend to miss the fly a few times before they get it in their mouth.
When a redfish strikes a gurgler, it is usually an exciting show — often an explosion on the fly.

 ESPN Outdoors -- ESPN2: A redfish fandango   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Pallot, who has targeted redfish for years with his fly tackle, gives the redfish high marks — not just because of its fighting ability, but their relative abundance in U.S. coastal waters.
Thanks in part to the culinary craze of flened redfish in a sizzling skillet and a disastrous Southern freeze in December 1983 that killed scores of inshore fish, the outlook for redfish, or red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus), in many locales was anything but rosy just two decades ago.
Aside from the volume of opportunity to catch redfish in coastal waters, the intricate challenges of quietly stalking into flycasting range is another powerful lure for anglers who are seeing red.

 Chumming for Redfish on Florida's West Coast
Both of us regularly fish the flats south of the Little Manatee River, and on this day we joined forces to try to fool redfish that some anglers said were actually running away from live sardines on the hook, though they would eat wounded baits tossed out as chum.
Before sight-fishing arrived in force in Florida waters beginning about 20 years ago, reds were thought of in some quarters as bottom-grubbers just a cut above catfish because of their predilection to feed by scent as much as sight.
The reds could then be caught on the same bait you used for chum, typically a slab of mullet about two inches square, with the skin left on so that it stuck to the hook better.
