The fishing there is great right now.
Most any kind of jig is fine.
The style and color of bait you choose to put on it is more critical.

If you want to bust things wide open, try live shrimp under a Cajun thunder. Use at least a 20# fluorocarbon leader 24"-28" long. Cast out and hold on !

Last time I was out there I threw live shrimp and Berkely shrimp all afternoon, not a thing. I found the cheapest thing in the box, a Candy Corn Curltail, the hammered it as soon as it hit the water. Curtails of any color do wonders in the flats, but I'm partial to Electric Chicken, good luck!
