And the Old Jetties should be the place to catch them, if you can't get offshore. They love to eat barnacles.

Used to catch some big ones by the hundreds against the pilings on the Old Bridge in Grand isle esp. in the winter and spring. Eatin barnacles like crazy as you could see em swimming around the pilings. Better than shrimp is fiddler crabs if you can get em. Reds like em too. We got fiddlers behind our camp just to try and smoked em.

Seen the VC eatin sheepshead raw (sushimi) w/ some soy sauce on the side as they came over the rail of the bridge. The knife was waitin!!
