Trout and Reds are biting, also starting to catch more flounder. Been catching on Glow/Chart and Natural Shrimp Jerk Jr.'s
Motor Oil Salty Grubs, and Chicken on a chain Norton Sand Eel Jr's
Use 1/4oz jig head good luck man

thanks guys, I'm new to this site, and haven't been saltwater fishing in about 5 years. Moved from Baton Rouge, I used to fish Cocodrie a lot, but never been fishing out this way. I just bought a boat a few weeks ago, and I'm rusty on fishing, can't wait to get started. Thanks for your help!!!!!

Few tips. Stay at least 70 or so yards away while on plane from other boats, dont 'olympic anchor toss', prepare your boat for launch before you get to the ramp, and stay away from a black haynie or you will cut his drift off. Good luck and welcome to the site!
