06/21/2012 Grand Isle Bank Fishing Report

Fished by myself today and won the battle against the wind. It was blowing hard but persistence pays off! Easily caught my limit of 25 trout fishing one of my honey holes. Went to the spot where I caught my star winning fish and first cast with a live finger mullet I hooked into a big trout but he spit the hook when I was landing him. Second cast with a finger mullet and I hooked another nice trout but landed him this time. It wasn't huge but definitely a big fish for grand isle. I knew the fish wasn't gonna be the rodeo winner but I wanted to get my name on the board and it almost took the lead but wasn't quite big enough. I tried mullet again but the small redfish had taken over. I will be in grand isle the whole weekend so I will be hitting this particular spot hard.

Final fish count for the day:
25 specks
1 nice white trout
2 flounder
1 redfish

Puleeeze!
I just spent the last 30 minutes editing this thread to drop numerous comments generated from one troublemaker (who has been warned that he will be banned if he persists). We will not allow the site to be derailed by such idiocy. We want you guys to post reports and photos, and to have respectable debates about outdoors-related issues. So do us a favor and just email us if you see someone who is obviously kicking hornets nests, and let us deal with it. BTW, as a reminder we do not tolerate ANY profanity, so leave that off your comments - no matter how charged-up you might be.

Good report

I think you need to sell your boat. Why boat when you can catch all your limits off the bank. Good report.

Bank fishing

Mr. Ruckner I have been reading your reports and I must tell you I have made 5 trips to Elmers in the past 3 weeks only to be blown back home . The wind is making me nuts. I have been pratcing your caroliner rig with the bank sinker. As much $ I have been spending on gas and live bait I would be willing to treat you to a lunch or dinner for a fishing trip with you. Heck I don't care if you blind fold me on the way there. Lol. I'm retired and can fish just about any day. I try to avoid fishing the week end.so if you ever want some company please don't hesitate to contact me. I hope I'm not being to forward I just need to learn a few new spots around grand isle when the surf is not fishable.
Thanks and congress on being a heck of a fishermen
