rigs?
 

I don't usually post looking for advice, but I figured I'd give it a shot. Which rigs/platforms close to the Cameron Jetties do you guys fish? Specifically, which CLOSE rigs, accessible by a 22 foot bay boat, do you guys fish? It seems like every summer when I get to fish, it's always too rough to venture out. I'm hoping when I get down there in August I'll be able to check it out.

Yeah I was looking for the same info on the close rigs. Anybody catching right now?

You can see 2 jack up rigs to the SW of the Jetties and several to the SE of the Jetties around 6 or 7 miles out.
There are some platforms that are almost straight south of Cameron, right off the buoys about 17 miles out.
There are also some that are about 5 miles to the East of Cameron that are about 10 miles offshore. I think they are around the WC-65 area.
There are a few single well jackets south of the S-Curve between Cameron and Oak Grove, right on the beach. I saw a jack up boat and a derick barge there Sat. morning.

do you ever run out there in your boat Ray? We gonna have to try to make a trip out there when we get back in. I've got my GPS so I can mark the platforms. Have you heard of anyone catching @ the rigs that are stacked?

I had an offshore center console boat before my bay boat. I fished the WC-180/170 areas to the WC-368 area and also some platforms off Grand Chenier. I had a back injury the prevented me from going offshore anymore. I had back surgery in Jan. and another minor procedure in March. So I got a bay boat after all that. I cannot take much pounding or rocking anymore due to scar tissue rubbing on a nerve that hurts my left a$$ cheek and my left leg.
I have not heard of anyone catching them there, yet. I have heard about a lot of Hardheads and Spanish being caught there on live bait.
When I get in, if the weather is good, we can check the stacked rigs out and see what is there.

Sounds like a plan. I'm out here in 5800' of water. Keathly Canyon 291 on a floater

Up late???
I am at MC-809 on a TLP.
Slow night too. But that is good on first night out.

Yeah I work nights out here. Tripping pipe, getting ready to set casing.

dang boys....how's the water out there where you are?

Clear blue water as far as you can see.

Flat calm, clear and blue. Lots of jelly fish. There are thousands of them all over the place.

:shaking: :shaking:

headed out this afternoon.....plan on 140 miles out of Cameron

Well??

good trip. 2 big wahoo, 1 dolphin, and a sailfish. Caught our 10 snapper on the way in.

My cousin caught a wahoo only 45 miles out of cameron last saturday. I couldn't believe it.

Wahoo can be caught closer in, around the WC-269 and WC-368 area during July and Aug., big ones...
