Fish the lights at night off the Caminada fishing bridge.

The surf early morning for specks. Also, the rocks at Caminada Pass, but just be VERY careful for slippage.

Good luck. Grand Isle is God's Country.

So do you need a jacked up White F250 to fish Elmers Island and do you actually need to drive out into the surf to catch fish? I guess getting stuck just enhances the experience as well.
