Nothing but catching
Louisiana Fishing Expeditions
The action can still get no better than it has been lately down here. Friday and Saturday I had Gary, Mike, Lamar and William on the boat for some redfish action. Friday was very windy but we got lucky and found a cove out of the wind and put over 20 redfish in the boat along with some blacks and sheepsheads. We sat in our first spot and never left as the action was consistant all day. Saturday was even better, the wind and seas were calm and it has been a long time since I saw that. I took them a little further out and got on a real fast bite as they loaded the boat with slot reds, slot blacks and sheepshead again. For the second stop we hit one on my favorite reefs and it was on for the bulls as soon as we arrrived as they caught 11 bull reds and some huge blacks. They had a blast catching these reds and blacks using my light tackel spinning gear with 12 lb test. The fish here were huge with the reds weighing up to 30 pounds and one of the blacks was about 60 pouns(the biggest I ever had on my boat). I took them to one more reef way inside in shallow water where they picked up some nice slot blacks and Lamar caught another 32 inch bull there. It was 3 stop shopping Saturday catching fish at all 3 stops and returned back to the dock early. This four were was really good fisherman that fish all the time back home in Florida, Lamarand William was on my boat last week for 3 charters and brought their Dad, ( Gary) back this week. They said they have never seen red fish action sa good as we have it here. This foursome left Hopedale with big smiles, plenty of filets and lots of pictures. Sorry about no pictures as I left my camera by the boat but I will put them up soon. Its almost time to start catching trout, I have just not tried yet as I have not seen or heard of many great catches.
