Why not unpainted jigheads? I buy them in bulk from Gus’s in Slidell. I’m positive the same guy who supplies Gus also supplies Chag’s, probably Puglia’s, too.

I have fished with this a little bit so far. So far, so good. But I have yet to really hammer the trout with it. We shall see. I’ll report back whenever that happens.

“which seems to be heads above the rest”
Thank you.
I appreciate you taking time to post an intro. I assume when you fished BASS, etc. you did so as a co-angler? That’s good stuff. Certainly not easy to do. I think a lot of bass fishing translates well to inshore fishing.
Do not hesitate to post how you fish or plan to fish wherever in Alabama in order to get feedback from us. Patterns are patterns, and I know I could give you a fresh perspective, as well as others. In bass tournaments, it’s hardly ever the guy on his home lake who wins, it’s the guy from out of town with a fresh perspective. Consider the Yankees that won Classics in Louisiana.
Great intro, thanks for posting it, and don’t hesitate to leverage this Community. Tight lines, Rodney!

“I laughed, butttttttttttt c’mon dude. Who gives AF what anyone thinks?”
To be clear, the mentality then was “if you can’t catch limits of trout, then you can’t book trips” very much like right now it’s “if you can’t keep fish for a massive dock shot then you can’t book trips”. It makes me feel challenged to start guiding again just to prove that wrong. lol
“great example of this is Marshes and Hills with Ty Hillman (probably the best sight-fishing YT channel to date).”
Is this a challenge for me to dust off GnarTooth and start pumping out sight fishing videos that blow your brain? Don’t make me do it!!! lol

So no translation needed? Interesting. I love that.
As for the separate track, it sounds like they weren’t saved individually at the end of the day, so they ran together as one track. My Helix does that, so at the end of each fishing trip I save the current track and it automatically names the track the date-time group.
-
How did you transfer to GED?
After that, you can edit that track just like any track in GED: right click on it in the Places window, select Properties, then begin editing. Easy day.

I don’t see any reason why not. Trout are incredibly fecund. So long as the river plays nice and we don’t get any major storms. I am optimistic. I think we are going to see reports, especially in Breton Sound, of people complaining they can’t keep a limit (or at least it will be harder to fill one) because of all the trout over 20 inches.

You’re welcome.
I’m not sure what you’re targeting out of Port Sulphur, but whether it’s reds or specks I am sure you will smash them. Lots of oysters down there. Lots of potential and unique things. You should hit the stumps at Grand Bayou (like fish them, not with your boat lol)
-
I’ve seen bay boats launch there during summer.
I think your boat will be fine. Yes, it’s a little shallower toward the end, just make sure you’re on plane and hammered down.
I think you’ll be good.

The river was definitely better last year, but I’m sure you know that’s a function of the river coming up earlier than it did last year. This year will hopefully be different.
-
Well, it has been better in the Lake P area, for sure. Mike Gallo also doesn’t fish other areas and, of course, he’s going to say that so customers book.
With that said, he’s a long time, OG, BTDT, knowledgeable guy.
“I would tend to agree with that.”
Me too! That’s pretty much been my tune this whole time, but I’d go to think putting fish back certainly cannot hurt.
Let’s hope the river doesn’t see double digits this winter!!! *knocks on wood*
-
Ah, and to answer your question: no I have not. But I am confident boater with an aluminum boat that doesn’t weigh much and a trailer that’s already beat to hell.
-
Well, what boat are you trying to launch? My crystal ball isn’t working today and you didn’t specify that in your profile or post an intro 🙂
