In regards to seeing them offshore, we regularly see teal in October and then again around march 100 miles off shore. I know its slightly different because lots of them go to mexico, but I just thought those of you who don't go offshore might be interested. A lot of times they will stop in a patch of sargassum and rest. Seen lots of coots floating in the rip in October/November as well.
There are no fences out there. Between Mississippi and Louisiana, I've seen lots of stuff : tundra swan, sandhills, scoter, harlequin, oldsquaw etc.
Another bit of cool info. A lot of time offshore, a small bird (say a finch or something, will seek refuge on the boat) they are usually pretty tuckered out and defenseless. I've noticed quite a few perregrins at the offshore floaters. When the small birds come by to rest on the platform, bam, peregrine attack.

Harlequin would be state records for both states. Need a pic if you ever see that again
There is a raft of mainly scoters right outside Cameron now with surf, black, and white winged scoters
There's a tundra swan and cinnamon teal at Cameron prairie now
