Fishing in Ocean Springs MS

I know the general consensus is that inshore fishing out in that area is shite. Have family that lives out there, and go a few times a year.
I fish the beach and the bayou in a kayak every time I go. I catch a red or two in the bayou, but besides that it’s all hardheads on the beach. Most of the reds I’ve caught have been on artificial, even though I can almost always count on catching shrimp or mullet in the casting net and fish those on the bottom
Anybody got anything for me?
Area is on Belle Fontaine, north of Horn Island

Flounder and reds are good ok poppn cork with gulp shrimp or bull minnows in graveline (the mouth or the bends). The ole coast guard station is good too but that’s a long tote. If you do go that way, the Pascagoula river marsh is good for bass and reds on anything shiny or buzz baits. If you go the marsh route I’d put in over off 90 at the bridge and head north. There’s also a couple bars that serve food right past the train bridge on the left. The ship yard at night under the lights is probably the best but there are some large barges that come in and out of there. I’ve caught some hammer reds and flounder out there at night under the big lights, I’ve also caught some nice mangroves on live shrimp certain times of the year. The LNG plant at night is a guaranteed cooler full of white trout.

I saw a guy catch some big sow red snapper recently in the Pascagoula River using Yuzuri crank baits.

Belle Fontaine Reef is less than a mile from the beach.
I've done it in a kayak. Good for white trout, mackerel, specs and reds
