Yes we have fished the gulf side of ship island, Many days w/in sight of the beach , the water turns this beautiful copper color,
massive schools of bull reds roam the area. And if your bait happens to pass thru the bulls w/o a taker ,Guess what is underneath the reds? massive schools of Jack crevalle. Also lots of sharks to be caught.
You may not catch alot to eat but you will holler uncle after a few of those fish.
Bring a good set of binoculars and watch for the birds and / or watch for the boats trolling . ( alot of the locals troll for the reds). We anchored outside their trolling line and in 3 hrs caught and released 7 bulls 5 jacks and 2 sharks all on avo/red flake beetles .(bait i had tied on from previous trip.)
