beach with strong north wind
 

Looks like a North wind friday and saturday. Is 10mph north too strong? Gonna be in hackberry friday and thinking about giving it a shot for the first time.

Should be perfect for clearing up the surf. Sunday morning should have the best conditions if the North wind holds true.

Bull after bull this past Friday with a stiff NE wind and a low tide. Cracked crab off the 4th set of rocks heading west from Holly Beach. Wasn't very clear at all though even with the N wind.

I was hopin to get on some trout. Been catching alot of bull reds but havent gpt on some trout in a while

We've learned to be happy with what the day hands us, and the bull reds have been plentiful this year. We just finished up an awesome dinner of grilled redfish po-boys and a couple of days ago enjoyed redfish parmesan.

Well me last trip we must've caught about 20+ reds all over 36". We got lucky and caught one 26 3/4". Just looking for a change of scenery

I am in Hackberry for my annual fishing trip starting tomorrow. When you all talk about fishing the beach after a north wind, how close to shore do you get and how do you fish it? I have fished the jetties but never close to the beach.

Close to rocks west holly is a good start

Thanks for info. I tried for flounder by 4 corner of old river and nothing. Fish were probably there but my skill level is low. Made a run to grand weir and caught birds working, caught lot of dinks but no keepers. Not enough shrimp at weirs worth working that hard for and not gonna fight the boats to try for reds at weirs. Day 1 of 6 and not a keeper. Rain tomorrow but I have 5 days left. Any advice would help.Thanks

Birds early in the am north be there for first light

Thanks, I will do just that

Come out of texaco cut and start north from there.

Will do, thanks

We heading out there saturday afternoon. Gonna camp out on the beach saturday night, and fish sunday.

Any restrictions on building a fire out there and where you can set up camp?

As far as I know you can pitch a tent at any of the public accesses. As far as the fire I'm not sure. According to this thread the whole beach was on fire at one point
