August 20 -24, 2008 - Three out of the last 4 days have been good, with the spoiler on Sunday dues to the tropical depression. We canceled all trips on Sunday, and I have to say it was actually nice to be home relaxing on Sunday. Those days are few and far between. One day I helped out my good friend PaPa Joe with a crew from Las Vegas. Both boats finished with a limit of reds. Thursday Capt. Barry and I fished the Tom Atwell party, a carbon copy of Wednesday, both boats finished with easy limit, and many more caught and released. Spinner baits and silver spoons were the hot baits. A different look from the gold spoon we normally throw.
Day 2 with the Tom Atwell on Saturday. The wind from Fay gave us some problems, but both boats still managed a limit of reds in the adverse conditions. Spinner baits produced most of the fish but silver spoons also worked well. The water in Lafitte is LOW. Be careful when running around. Pretend it is February. Fishing is still good though!
