Welcome! Lots of knowledgeable folks on here who are more than willing to help. Seems like you have some knowledge yourself so keep telling those stories.

I saw some in little Rigolets pass about a month ago and I’ve seen some the last two times I’ve been in bienvenue. How much grass is in the areas you are talking about? I’m a big believer that we need a true cold front with a big northern blow to get that started. I think the combo between water temps dropping and the marsh getting drained out make that happen.

I really despise social media at times but I used to use instagram as a way to log fishing trips. I’d post a couple pics and then the relevant information in a comment. Something about seeing a picture helps the fishing trip come alive in my memory.
Admittedly, I don’t really record anything anymore. Things change year to year so much in Louisiana and there are so many variables to pin down that it almost seems pointless at times. You guys may have inspired me to bust out my own inner-autist and logging a whack again.

How did those first few “ticks” feel? I can’t help but feel like a kid at Christmas when fall fishing officially kicks off.

Every trout caught down there is EARNED. I respect the level of perseverance it takes to fish without a trolling motor. I’ve all but given up on trips when my trolling motor goes out

I’ll be honest, life has kept me mostly on the side lines for conservation efforts here recently so I have no idea. I’m just now starting to reach out to people to get a feel on what could be done. I know American Saltwater Guides Association plans on meeting tomorrow at 12:30 at No Wake Outfitters in Metairie. I think I’ll start there.

Don’t you dare get my hopes up, McLovin.

Agreed. I think the benefit of the fall and cold fronts is largely that it actually reduces the amount of bait in the water. We need a consolidation of bait and that makes your traditional fall spots even that much more productive. Like shooter said, right now they can find bait pretty much anywhere.
I could be wrong but I’m hoping much of the fall productivity will be compressed and things will get really really really good after the first real cold front or two.

SE shoreline of Lake P between the tracks and Seabrook sometimes traps bait this time of year. That too is worth a look to get away from the crowds
-
Getting some reports that shell pads/old rigs are worth a look as well.

My God you never cease to amaze me

I’m pretty sure this is the route I’m gonna go. Like you, I really only want something that I can use to communicate with buddies when I’m way way out. I hope to eventually get a PLB fora SHTF moment.

Bogas are actually very accurate. You can actually get the IFGA certified. I know Jay Wright has weighed at least one of his world records with a Boga. The problem with them is they can be hard to read.
Regardless, that’s a really nice fish.

That thing actually looks bigger than 4lbs. If it is right at 4lbs then it’s probably 23ish given how fat it is
