    Awesome thanks for the insight on the Redfish. Today I would cast it out but keep the line taut while still letting some line out until the line would bounce to slack then start the retrieve. And in the retrieve if I went over a hole and the line wasn’t going slack I would let some line out and let it go slack then start bouncing it off the bottom again. What do you do? Im pretty new to consistently using conventional gear. I mostly only fly fished in the city before I got my kayak so I’ve got a lot to learn.

    Awesome thanks for the advice! I have been thinking about trying Eden Isles and heard that area has been producing this year. So I might try that, but if not tomorrow definitely in the near future.

    Awesome, thanks for the advice, I’m thinking Cocodrie mostly for trout but we’ll see. Once I see a light air sunny day on the forecast I’m thinking point La hache next.

    I was fishing a long stretch of shoreline adjacent to the highway facing the bay. At low tide right up against the shoreline where my kayak was, was all around one foot of water give or take. I was using my paddle as a pole and poling through the flat as even the pedal drive on my kayak couldn’t go down.

    Thanks, it would have been impossible without all the knowledge I have learned through LAFB Elite, So thank you!

    Thank you, for the advice, I’m now set on trying Venice tomorrow. Excited to try a new spot and will hopefully figure out the trout down there!

    I launched from Tide Water Water Rd. Further west of that launch close to the southernmost point to drive sign.

    In retrospect though around that launch you’re talking about would probably be much better with a strong north breeze. Thanks for the great advice as always
