Newbie to this Forum - Planning Winter Vacation

[fishn4real]

Hello folks. I have just found your forum and would appreciate help in planning my winter fishing vacation. I have always fished Florida, Alabama, and around the Hopedale, LA areas, but have been doing some interesting reading about Grande Isle area. I target specks and reds exclusively, and for now will be land locked. What are my options? I understand there is a bridge/pier...is it productive in winter? Any other suggestions for this lost in Misery saltwater fisherman? Thanks, and good catching!.
