what are you targeting? If you are looking for tuna go to the west delta blocks in 85-200 ft of water and start looking for shrimp boats

We want to try our luck at black fin tuna, don't have a large enough ice box for yellow fin. Also will go for cobia and mangrove.

Give or take a few miles. Last Friday they had a couple boats by wd117 and a few more further east in shallower water. Yesterday there were 7-8 boats in 120ish feet of water is what a guy in Venice told me.

If you see a shrimp boat in 80ft plus anywhere, stop and see if you are marking fish and throw a couple handfuls of chum at the back corner of the boat and be watching for fish coming out

Hey Howard we will be down in Grand Isle Friday afternoon till Sunday afternoon looking for tuna and whatever else is biting. I've gotten a 30ft Century center console since we last talked we will be fishing the west delta areas if y'all want to buddy up give me a shout. We have a cabin at Bridgeside.
