Large bay boat probably does make the most sense for south LA.

I think you are right for virtually the entire gulf for your average guy.

The costs associated with owning and running even a 30 ft center console can be astounding relative to what you get in return.

I am thinking hard about getting a 24 ft bay boat (like the 240 LTS) and putting a little extra money into an upper station with controls for cobia fishing.

Since the Feds are taking away incentive to run offshore for snapper and since pelagics are generally too far for a bay boat in the gulf, this makes the most sense for me personally. I'll pay someone a few times per year to fish for tuna, wahoo and billfish and have a lot more money in the bank in the long run.
