Fishing from the bridge in Grand Isle advice

Gonna be down in Grand Isle next month for a few days and may fish the bridge at night.
I know there are some accomplished bridge
fisherman out there...tips would be appreciated!
Also, where are some of the better places to gig for flounder?
I've gigged the beaches and Elmer's Island with limited success. Any advice?
Thanks in advance, Gents!

Small white bream bait works like a champ on the bridge. Check the tides to see what times are best but I like to try and get out there after 2 am. I always fish the island side and find the bigger trout at the 2nd and 3rd light.
Tons of great places to flounder, but it's become real popular as of late. Seem to always run into somebody in the normal spots these days.

Caught 150 or so white trout last week under the lights. Small tandem shad rigs did the damage. The darker colors worked better.

Fly rod casting clouser's or shrimp imitations and stripping it right under the surface.
You will outcatch the people around you 5:1 or even more.
I've found the gummy minnows work pretty darn well too.

quote:I was down there weekend before last and gigged in front of those houses on the opposite side of the bridge as the pier. Right there in the bend there is a dock w/ lights shining into the water. Right past it there is a lil rock wall. I got 4 flounder in 50 yards right t here between the lit dock and the rocks.
