    Being from Alabama with little knowledge of South LA, this definitely minimized my anxiety and fear of running these shallow marshes. I followed your lessons on mapping for a trip to Delacroix, LA, (first trip fishing this area), and absolutely couldnt have done it without you. Fished 3 days out of my Scout 231xs first day 17reds, second day 36 reds, and 15 reds last day! Already booked my 2nd trip May18th. Can’t thank you enough

      Wow, those are great results. Absolutely awesome.

      You are living proof that applying a little time on water, along with a little elbow grease and knowing what to do goes a long dang way.

      Just incredible. Thank you so much for sharing this.
