alright gang, doing Cocodrie again this weekend...
We catch fish every trip, but I never feel like we're fishing with the optimum setups.
Our typical rigs are about 2' leaders with live or dead skrimps under popping corks.
Sometimes we try a plastic skrimp like a Vudu or DOA, either under a popping cork, or with maybe a weight in front of it with no cork.
Suggestions?
One other thing... in the canals where we find 10-15' of water, what should we use to get down in the depths?
Just trying to learn...

I don't fish canals and I rarely fish artificial under a cork. I do fish moving water through cuts and along the shore. I like soft plastic moving slow during the winter, topwater however they hit it and minnows under a cork if I have to.
Always good to find a rocky/oyster bottom.

1/4 oz lead head with a 4" H&H cocahoe. I prefer avocado/red tail and pumpkin seed/chartreuse tail.

different areas = different baits and techniques.
Big Lake= Corky's and Mirrodeans in the cold weather
Lake P = Dudleys and Matrix tightlined at the base of bridge pilings. Trolling rattletraps and soft plastics also work certain times of the year.
Grand Isle,Cocodrie,Point Au Chens,lake Boudreaux area seems to like tandem rigged soft plastics with 3/8 oz jigheads
