Ahhhh, Grand Isle. Great post. Glad you made it.
I saw a guy down there posting pictures of a goblin shark he caught in 1100′ of water… fishing out a 18′ aluminum boat haha
High functioning Elon-Musk-style south-Louisiana autism + aluminum boat = shark ID in 1,000ft of water. How did his Bass Pro 2D transducer reach that far lmao
Like…dude. DUDE. Chas Champagne literally calls me “Gorilla Nuts”, but nothing compares to that guy.
What is the depth of water around these rock jetties?
Shallow. And probably not worth fishing. I’ve fished it a few times and only caught trash fish.
Do the rocks on the bay side produce this time of year?
The rocks east of the ones you circled, on the actual Grand Isle, those I have caught specks on and seen reports of others who caught specks.
Paul Cummins is a guy with a good deal of experience there. He’s a good dude, and also an early adopter of LAFB Elite, IF101, etc. He’s worth reaching out to on Facebook.
Those rocks are worth fishing in the morning if the Gulf side is not doable. They are also worth fishing at night. Remember that there are lots of night lights on the north side.
in second photo labeled #2 is that yellow path a safe route? Is it no wake zone?
Yep, that’s good to go. Uhm, there are some docks along the way but I always hauled ass past ’em. Keep in mind that most people know my boat and I felt it was okay to stay on plane. I’ve seen other boats stay on plane, so I figured it’s acceptable there.
If i try fishing Bayou Lafourche area (like the jetties there), is there a way to get back into the caminada bay area without going back into the gulf? I’m not seeing an easy way lol
I assume you mean Belle Pass. If so, when I get up later I can mark that path out for you.
Also, you might want to go to Gus’s Tackle and get a flounder gig setup. There could be flounder to gig on the beach at night.
