I very much agree hire the guide Jackie Kennedy or jackieBlue, if he is prepared to fish Fairfield yet this year.
I laid it out pretty well several times within the last 4-6 months. I have to get some rest for tomorrows trip and work Sunday. Search on my authorship and key word "carolina" or "shrimp" some posts should pop up.

Just saying. Anyone looking for help on the lake and wants to catch some redfish should give Jackie a call 903-603-3793. He's been snowed under with catfish trips on cedar creek lately but i'd bet you wouldnt have to twist his arm too hard to get him to make a trip the redfish hole. He's a good guide and an excellent teacher. It's money well spent if you want to have a good time with a good guy and learn a lot for future trips.

Despite others proving catching reds at FF has been challenging for them, all you really offer is to run down others attempt to help. Offering no more Fairfield useful advice than "the lake is so small you'll be able to figure it out on your own". You again reply to the person asking for Fairfield method and pattern advice by providing nothing useful to their request, except to tell them to ignore others opinions. And you can do that just 12 minutes after I post.
Now we understand you can do all this from a non-boaters perspective. I once before and I now ask again that you please put my posts on ignore unless you can add something useful..... unless you can show us some picture proof of your many Fairfield red fish conquests.
I am surprised with your pessimistic perspective that you could ever be adventurous enough to wet a hook and test you fishing skills and luck. With the sourness oozing out of your posts I would be very be surprised if you could bait a hook and catch anything that would be willing to bite bait tasting that bitter.
I ask one last time that you put my posts on ignore.

Thanks for the advice about hire a guide but i will try to do it on my own. I just bought a map booklet with all the redfish hot spots at Fairfield. My main question is do u fish with a bopper or all the way at the bottom. I will be using shrimp.
thanks again

I used to listen to the Big Bopper when I was a small child.
