Yea it just gets a little dicey when you attach and detach to the rig with such large swells.

Like Ray said, but you can sometimes find solid legal sized Snapper around 22 miles but its not really worth doing anymore since they changed the regs. You have to go 40+ to catch Grouper, Amberjack ect.

You can catch Spanish and Specks at the platforms off of Broussards Beach in the summer. You can also catch Ling at the bouy's in the summer. They come into the bouy's around 2 miles South of the jetty's all the way to the end of the bouy chain.
You can also catch some Tripletail around the jacket wells and weedlines a few miles out. |

There are some good places about 18 miles out of Grand Chenier. Lot more platforms out of GC than out of Cameron. The water is a little deeper closer in. THey have some big double and triple platforms out there. They have more Ling also.
Stone Energy had a platform, Block 44 out of GC that was great fishing. |
