Keepers under birds has been a rare find for me this year. Nice trip!
-
I fish Lafitte and when I run up the Myrtle grove canal I am just in awe of all of the good redfish water. One of these days I’m going to take some time to explore more.

I fished with two buddies today and it wasn’t a bust but wasn’t as good as you. The weather forecast made us nervous to run that far from Lafitte. We didn’t go south beyond creole bay. Definitely not all the way to GI. I applaud your guts. It was one of the few days where the weather was a LOT better than what we expected. On the flip side, the fishing didn’t match up. We made a few strategic errors. I’ll try and put a report together tomorrow but long story short, keeper trout are apparently being caught throughout the Barataria basin and we are still waiting on the summer pattern to develop.

Great report! Thanks for sharing!

Oh man. I’m on my phone so don’t think I can open up this set of tracks. But let me tell you. It’s not my favorite. Not so bad if there’s plenty of water but in the winter it can get dicey. If you can upload a screenshot I can provide more specifics. Off the top of my head spoonbill bay is the safest. Bay geolette bay is super shallow especially where you enter on the west side. Last time I was out I tried to take bayou DuPont all the way from at round to the pen for only the second time and it’s soooo easy to get turned around even staring at the gps. Next thing you know you’re kicking up mud in less than a foot of water. I see the guides do it all of the time without an issue but that’s to be expected.

This is good intel for Monday! Were you even tempted to go to the pen after your day earlier this week?
Also curious about which launch you pick and why. I use Joe’s because I’ve got my boat in one of their sheds. Gotten to know them and they’ve been super friendly.
-
Man I’m happy to hear you had just as confusing of a day as I did last week, but happier that you slaughtered them! I’m probably going Monday and your report is really screwing with what I think I’m going to do. Hopefully manilla and hackberry/creole have some good water after this stretch of mild weather.

We do in fact have the same honey holes! Full report forthcoming
-
We can compare notes next time I see you. I love the board but not enough to be throwing private coordinates around lol
-
That’s right where my mind is. I imagine all of those trout from the pen are moving down bayou dupont and through round lake and airplane bay on their way to saltier water for the spawn. I want to believe in my honey hole in creole bay because of how well it produced last year so it’s going to get some attention tomorrow. But it seemed dead two weeks ago, granted conditions were not great. Hoping to be underway about 5:30 and fishing by sunrise.

As someone who about once a year leaves an accessory switch on and drains the cranking battery…this would be helpful.

lol when I saw this original post I had a strong feeling Devin was working on a robust response and I just need to be patient. Let me dig in!
-
This is the report I’m going to be anxiously awaiting!
-
That’s what I’m hoping but Josh’s report from yesterday is really messing me up. I’m just itching for the summer pattern to turn on.
