Early May is usually about the time that the surf turns on down there. I can recall catching trout in the surf one year the last weekend in April even. I think that these last few cold fronts have kept the surf temps down so the trout may not make a strong showing until a little later. I'd try the bays next to the major passes on the east and west ends of the island. Can't beat live shrimp or imitations. Don't rule out small topwaters that'll mimic a popping shrimp.
