Louisiana Gulf?

I like Padre better.  Great beaches and if you can hack it, the jetty fishing is very good.  So is the wade fishing.

Fished for Reds in Nov,  in Lafitte and in Venice.  It was a blast and will do it again.  Caught a bunch of Reds and Sheepshead even a few stingrays.   Not sure how the bank fishing would be.       

Those sheepshead are amazingly good!

Figure it will cost around a Thousand Dollars, which I have.

Cost us that much going to Branson but most that was Alcohol when I was drinking.

Did you eat them and would you swim on the Beach?

I did a search on fishing from the bank seems to be good from some spots using Shrimp catching 16 inch +. Much better during Winter but my wife is wanting to swim.

Didn't see any beach.  I think you have to go to Grand Isle for that.  We ate them and they were excellent.

Surprised me how good they were.

There is other Beaches. My wife brought up the fact you probably went on out into the Gulf.

I'm want to fish from shore. There is several places just a matter of catching the fish there. Have to be 16 inches long on Reds and allowed 5. Seems cold weather pushes them into the canals but that does out swimming.

We had a trip planned for Grand Isle but Katrina had other plans. Bad when good Fall Fishing coincides with Hurricane Season.

I might add most this is for my wife. She has never seen the Gulf or Ocean. I lived on the Ocean and have been to New Orleans. 

She lived in California but never been to the Ocean. We lived in Louisiana but she never went to the Gulf. We went to Florida she never went to the Ocean and hated Florida.

Might also add we lived in the Mountains but I hated the Mountains. I've always liked Minnesota, Virginia and North Carolina but always liked Missouri, maybe it is my safe zone I know where things are.
