We’ve got a few kayakers with @Aspiring_Angler being one. Yes, Irish Bayou may have some fish, but you’d be crazy to not drag that thing down to Elmer’s and Grand Isle right now. PAC, too.
You’ve been a member for a long while now, but welcome to the Community anyway. Hopefully you dig this more than the Facebook group.
Thanks for posting an intro!

From there to get to EBM I would cross Lake Borgne straight from Chef Pass to the mouth of Bayou Biloxi, then take your first left (you’re still in Bayou Biloxi), then take that all the way east to pop out at the bottom of the Lakes of Bayou Marron (just one big lake now), then head east through Bayou Marron to EBM. Begin fishing at Bay Boudreau and work your way east from there. Easy day.
On your way across Lake Borgne, you’ll see a couple rigs to your right. Those are worth fishing. The one by Alligator Point is worth hitting up, too.
If you wanted to go to Mississippi Sound, then run straight up the middle of Lake Borgne headed NE to get there. Or go up the ICW to stay protected if it’s not perfectly smooth.

Yeaaahhh
So I haven’t been Captain Devin, I’ve been another Devin at the range entirely too much. But this report has Captain Devin activated.
Ugh.
I thought I had my ace in the hole with going sight fishing in PLH/Buras, but now I am thinking that I need to go to 29 degrees of latitude and beyond. Man, there’s no way I can top this trip. I live in your collective shadow.
Great report. Absolutely awesome to knock it out the ball park with a report straight outta the place that separates the men from the boys. I am impressed. Excellent work. I cannot top this. I am scared. Comfort me.

Why are you playing with my emotions.

“Caught 2 nice trout on Matrix under a cork. Tried to jig a 1/4 ounce weight with Matrix but kept getting snagged.”
Sounds about right with that kinda tackle.
Here’s a guide I wrote in 2018 detailing what to use, and it’s not that. 1/8 oz on casting tackle. Yes, it makes the difference.
It sounds like you moved just to the side of the crowd and found them anyway, which is outstanding. I love that. Great work.
If you hadn’t done that then you would’ve been stuck with Snag City. So, in the future, if you take time to make a planning post and let us know what tackle you want to fish with, myself or someone else can dial you in so you don’t have to learn after the trip.
On the bright side, at least you did post a report so now you know. That guide has those small details in it that make the difference.
I haven’t been to the Long Rocks in a minute and don’t plan to, but I am stoked you went out there and caught ’em.
Great report, thanks for posting!

“Like the reliable co angler he is, he was down, meet up at the marina for 515am.”
Yeah, cuz he’s a legit pipe hitter. I love it. DTF Just go smash fish in the face.
“It’s legitimately the “popping cork” of bottom fishing.”
HDS is the Bobby Boucher of inshore fishing. When you need to crush someone, you send in the HDS. It’s like a SWAT team going down there to blow the door off the honey hole and go after the trout.
All excellent advice, though y’all already know my thoughts on shrimp.
Great report. Killing it as always. Thanks for posting it. Hope you can get on the water again once the wind lays down.

Gonna have to pack some extra Alp and cold water.

I’ve got a faulty MAP sensor or ECM on the Tracker that would make that a risky gambit. I am testing/researching it now to see if there’s a way around. I would’ve gone to Boat Stuf and bought a new one but THEY’RE CLOSED!!! AARRGGHHH!!! lol
So GnarTooth it is. Or maybe just take GnarTooth to Venice lol

I hear ya.
Also, great first report! Hopefully there’s more to come!

That really depends on what part you’re trying to go to. The Biloxi Marsh is roughly 25 miles tall, north to south.
If I were you, I would make a new post asking this question. That’s because most people who frequent this board have already seen this report and assume your comment is related to the post, without seeing it. But, if you make a new post, you’ll get fresh eyeballs on it and better feedback.

Oh, and that point on Elmer’s NE of your pic “Fish The Beach” you should definitely try. Then that rock jetty across from it is another one. Both are well known spots.
