Me, my brother Goathead, and Eman's little brother Soupbone would catch the hell out of the flounder in Grand Isle on a white cocahoe minnow w/ a red tail fished in tandem along the 1st gut or 2nd gut in the surf on Elmer's Island or Fourchon Beach. Sometimes we would also throw a regular speck rig. We would tip it every now and then with bait shrimp or cut croaker. More often than not we would also catch some huge channel mullet/whiting, black drum and reds in the surf while fishing for the flounder. Doubles were not uncommon. Sometimes 2 different kinds of fish.
Good times yeah!!
