Man I haven't been in so long I don't really feel qualified to answer but since your leaving in the morning and no one else has replied here goes:
The tide looks slack tomorrow until about 3pm so its gonna be rough, the wind is light so that's good if you want to get out in the lake. I'd definitely swallow your pride and get a quart of live shrimp and fish it Carolina rigged along the drop offs in the ship channel. With all the fresh water coming down the specks might be holding deeper. You could also put the trolling motor down and beat the banks for reds and flounder. The flounder normally come in from the gulf around this time of the year and you can catch them on chartreuse gulp swimming mullets or white grubs bounced slow on the bottom. As far as warnings I'd watch out for the old jetties in Big Lake they don't stick out of the water much on a high tide and if you go to the wiers line up to the boat bay and gun it, don't try to idle thru. Hopefully some of the more hardcore big lake guys will chime in with some better advice before you leave in the morning. Good Luck
