Did anyone go to Grand Isle this past weekend surf fishing?

I’m sure the surf was calm with the light north winds blowing.

Are the trout still in the surf?
August usually gets tough

I went and struck out. Crabs were everywhere though and went home with plenty of them.

The fishing was aggravating. Water was clear and calm.

It wasn’t much better in the boat either. Believe we went 12, 15 and 6 Wednesday through Friday. Didn’t even fish Saturday.

Had some guys next to us surf fishing while we crabbed. He was reeling in 10” white trout one after another

Didn’t speak to anybody that caught inshore

We caught a lot of really solid trout in the surf on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Most of them were 16"-20". State Park Rocks and the "new" rocks on the West End. We were in my boat, but the wade fishermen were doing just as much damage albeit nipple-high in water

The bite would come and go, but there's still tons of fish out there. Soft Dine slowly working it did well early. Then once 10am rolled around, Carloina Rigged Croakers got the big girls biting.

Slow outging tides all day. Water was absolutely beautiful out front. The best fishing was found at the down-current point of the rocks. We got up and moved a few times when wade fishermen would start heading our way. Each rock pile fished the same.
