Can someone point me to some good fly tackle (fly fishing forum is pretty dead here) recommendations for Florida's Space Coast?

Would be going in Oct, target species is mostly redfish.

Thanks

Edit: got some time to look at some flys online. Looks like shrimp and mullet patterns are important. What line weight would be reasonable in the rivers and such?

I've never fly fished, but know a thing or two about redfish conventional. I only use 12lb mono for anything inshore. Small enough for trout, but still enough for 40+lb redfish, drum, sheepshead.

Just seeing this. How was your trip? I used to fly fish down there in the IRL, and south around Melbourne beach. Great fishing around there.
