Great question. I love this kinda stuff. Don’t hesitate to post it in the future.
I’m not a crab guru, but I don’t see why you can’t run crab nets in the same places you’d fish. I’d try Bayou Liberty, Bayou Bonfouca, the canals in Eden Isles, Geoghegan Canal, Bayou Lacombe, anywhere current flows and is protected from wind.

You really didn’t want to give up on that reef, huh?
Great report, thanks for posting!

“I had been monitoring Breton Sound, River levels, wind, and tide conditions a few days prior to this trip and taking a harder look the day before. Monday 6/16 looked to be the best day IMO.”
I love the planning and use of past report! Let’s gooooooo!!!!
“They had about 5 boats along the rocks but nobody was on the actual southern point which I though was odd because it had such a good tide line coming off of it.”
Because people are retarded.
“I also didn’t see anybody reeling them in either.”
Refer to above explanation.
“I feel like had I drifted, all five of those boats would have swarmed my spot.”
They 1,000% would have (see above explanation). That’s good defensive fishing.
“Pat was at the Marina when I made it back and instead of yelling at me he took a picture of me next to my fish at the cleaning station and gave me a fist pump. It was a good day.”
Well, that is one helluva day. lol That or I slipped through the wormhole at Skinwalker Ranch and this isn’t my original reality. In which case Pat was yelling at you in my home dimension.
“Side note: several trout did have shrimp in their bellies.”
Yeah, so those are different trout than the ones eating croakers on the rocks. Very interesting to see. I’m glad you were able to capitalize on that and it is FAN-FRIKKIN-TASTIC to see another good report hit the Community.
Thank you so much for taking time to post it.

Looks like autocorrect is fighting Louisiana place names again. lol
Hey, great report, thanks for posting! Glad y’all were able to catch a few.

Yeah, I hate hearing this. It just seems EBM hasn’t given it up very well, very consistently. It’s been like for a while now.
Whenever you go next, I think it would be worth your time to begin familiarizing yourself with Venice. Don’t even bring fishing rods to tempt you. Just run routes, get to know the area. Take a cruise, listen to a good podcast/music and prepare for when the river drops below 5ft at the Carrollton Gauge.

Also, that’s one helluva hike. Great report, thanks for posting!

You are living the Captain Devin life: get on a good bite, you’re a hero, kicked some ass then comes the long sludge of one tough trip after another. Somehow people don’t remember those. lol
This too shall pass.
We need to rally here. I’ll think of something. Either way, great report, thanks for posting it.

“Captain Jack was at the dock and he limited out with his people in Black Bay, 45 trout.”
THAT is good intel. Gives an area to begin looking.
I should probably whip up at Black Bay .kml and get LAFB Navy out there.
Either way, great report, thanks for posting!

You are a man amongst men.
Thank you for taking time to come back and give an update. That is some old school Internet good-to-go follow up right there.
Thank you!

Yeah, I still look at some and think “I’m not pronouncing that”

I think the octopus hook is probably a better idea and certainly worth trying. If I remember, I’ll pick some up next time I am at Gus’s.

Some guides are megalomaniacs about the dumbest thing to be megalomaniac at: fishing.

LOL
This is why my next boat will be plain-jane white gelcoat. Good luck spotting me. I could be anybody, I could be everyone. Never know.

JonFisher, you are a man of wisdom.
