Default Lake P or Grand Isle in September

Ok Guys give us the Pros and Cons...

We want to set a date here soon to have a Saltycajun.com Stop #2 Benefit Charity Tournament on the East side.

Looks like Grand Isle or Lake P will be the place! But please state why you think it should be at this Place!

We also will look harder at the feedback from the guys who Fished Big Lake event!!!

We want the East Side to step up and out do the 1st stop! Here is a chance for Saltycajun to raise a new record for the Children’s Brain Tumor Foundation!!!


Serious input Please

Bridgeside Marina in GI is booked solid - only 2 weekends available in September for a big event. Unless there are other big marinas there.

We could always rotate the east tourney every year...

Everyone, please consider logistics in your response, Marina, lodging, boozing, etc... But Marina is a big factor.

Sand Dollar is just as big as Bridgeside... August and September is way tougher to fish in Lake P than GI....lots of camps to rent on GI we would have to stay in hotels on Lake P....

I was there and fished but didn't register for BL tourney. I was there Friday night. I'll gladly donate $100 for charity though for not registering. Let me know where to send it. And I will def fish it if it is in GI. Lake P, maybe. I have never been there before, but I'll give it a shot. GI would be a good
place to party also. We could all go to Artie's and party. In the summer, you can catch fish anywhere practically in GI even if u don't own a boat. Also be good for yakers! I have a camp that can sleep a lot of ppl. And I could also prob get my hands on 1 or 2 more if
someone gave me enough notice.

You also have gulf stream and sand dollar marina in GI to choose from. Sand Dollar is just as big as bridge.

GI is a lot easier to fish and you have a lot more choices, yaks, waders,boats anything.... But lake P is a harder if you never fished it also if you don't have a boat that can handle the waves on some of the rougher days your screwed.... GI is just a more tournament friendly place.......

Gulf Stream is small, but will probably appreciate the business more, and will probably be willing to do it. They will like the business.
There are a lot more cabins. I don't like parking my boat in a hotel parking lot and having to bring everything in the hotel so no one steals anything off of it.
If it is in Grand Isle, my wife will definitely come. She loves it. Working 14/14, I like spending my weekends with my wife cause she works on weekdays.
Grand Isle has lots of water to fish. Plus, if you are more familiar with Leeville/Fourchon, you can fish there also and still weigh in at Grand Isle.
Grand Isle has the mall/good bars/good resturants/Friendly people.

Yea, what everyone else has said above me. Grand Isle.
Plus maybe Meaux fishing can keep that Red Snapper he's holding when he catches it, insted of getting a picture of it.

Are there any camps to rent around Lake P???

I would think Grand Isle would me more tournament friendly! Also, if it is in Grand Isle, better decide soon because the camps there get booked several months in advance.

Also if you dont want to rent an entire camp you can rent rooms at Bridge side marina and Sand dollar marina that have 2 twin beds in them for $50 a night. Cheap and all you have to do is walk out the door get in your boat and go. You can also get camps that sleep well over 20 people for about $4-500 a night or smaller ones that sleep around 6 and have a small kitchen for about $150 per night.
