Offshore out of Cameron
I might get more out of this if I break down the questions I guess.
Thanks again, C-Bass |

I can only answer #7 with any conviction and the answer is a resounding "YASSSS". Be even better if you've got a cloud camo shirt to go with it as well.

I mean, I can break out the sun sleeves and sun gloves too if it's that big of an advantage..

2 weekends ago me and a buddy went out 4 or 5 miles and found the trash line or rip or whatever you wanna call it and just followed it picking up triple tail under floating trash. All we were throwing at em were Gulps. Not sure it mattered to much what color/or even what bait. We could see a color change at 2 miles and again at that 4 mile mark.

NOAA is usually pretty accurate. There is a link to it if you click on the Weather/Tidea/Manchester button at the top of this page.

You need to look at more than only wave height also. The eriod of the waves is very important. 2' seas with a period of 5 seconds is nice. 2' with a period of 2 seconds will be an uncomfortable ride. |

Looks like a decent water change at around 25 miles. Blue water is way out. As calm as its been u might find some grass mats. Good luck.

Also, on the NOAA site, should I look at the Flower Gardens area, or Central?

I just looked at the ripcharts website. Did you pay for the premium or standard version. Looks like a bunch of good info. |

The biggest game changer for you guys being in a bay boat will be Thunderstorms. Doesn't matter what the forecast of the sea state is...Thunderstorms popping up in the area will usually increase the seas by 2-3'. You can go from 1-2' to 3-5' in a matter of minutes if the skies get angry.
Start paying attention to the offshore radar now and up until the day you guys plan on fishing. See if you can pinpoint a trend, if/when most of the storms may be developing. |

I would target Mangroves. A stray ling might pass by as well.

That would be cool with me. What's the best way to go about this?
