My understanding is that the fish are still in Lake Borgne.
They haven’t made their way inside in large amounts, and they’re showing up in places that (to me) don’t make any sense.
Drains in the ICW and Lake Borgne.
But somehow not Thomas, Martello or grass beds in Lake Pontchartrain.
This fall has started off weird. lol

Somehow I missed this. Sorry, I was working on the boat all day and didn’t check here that much.
I think FT1 CP, FT2 CP and FT3 CP are great.
FT 6 LB could be good.
Your “deep” spots could be better once it cools off but still worth trying.
However, I would absolutely rocket to Bayou Thomas first thing this morning.
The spots you picked out are good, but they’re just tidal “sidewalks” and “streets”.
You want the highways.
Bayou Thomas is a highway.

I wanted to go, but have priors. I think today is a really good day to go. Good luck, guys.

How much bait did you see at the Rock Dam? Any pogies? Shrimp?
How was the water clarity? I’m guessing it was cleaner in the MRGO?
I think 10/10 was a 10 out of 10 day to try fishing with all that water dumping out.

You can provide as much info as you want.
The kicker is, the more you provide, the more I can help you.
Routes, spots you want to fish, etc. exactly like what I lay out inside 101.
If I were you, I’d go for Coquille/Robin and fish the bayous that drain into it.
I bet fish are gonna go there over the areas you mentioned, because that is where they have gone in years past and I’ve gotten some good reports out of there.
-
So they fished the same spot you did, but later in the day? I’m confused.
-
Well, whoever told you that wasn’t thinking at all. lol
Because the Mattes fish was landed in 1950.
The sparkle beetle made its debut in 1959.
Interestingly, I was told that the Mattes fish was landed on live shrimp under a cork.
Who knows?
-
Fair enough.
I hear the rocket testing out of Stennis pretty regularly.
I think it’s cool! Sometimes they gotta give it some extra juice, because every once in a while it’ll really rattle the house, and I’m about 8 miles away IIRC.

Whoa, the guys who caught a limit, what did they do differently?
-
Yeah, that battery with 9 volts could just need cells to be topped off. I’m assuming they are standard lead-acid batteries, yes?
Otherwise, I’d swap it out. You could save a few dollars with a core swap.
Great work on the GB70.

“but I cannot stand spending $3000 for something that will be a glorified GPS”
No kidding.
Humminbird (Minn Kota) just came out with WiFi networking like they invented sliced bread.
Really? Really, guys? You just NOW halfway through this decade thought of that? Really?
Where the hell were you guys in the decade before last with this Earth-shattering revelation?
I’ve always wanted to crack a graph open and see exactly what kind of hardware is inside of it.
It’s not like they market a particular graph as having a better processor, memory, etc…
I won’t even get started on keeping all your tracks/waypoints organized inside their proprietary software. It’s just harder than what it should be.
We are juggling very basic, lightweight files here. This should not be that difficult.
Now, you’ll need their graph to run sonar, but for simple GPS stuff, I see no reason why you can’t use a homegrown solution.
Also, you can probably use a pre-owned (cheap) iPad or Android to the end you need it to.

Yeah, that reply on that post is a perfectly timed gold-mine for fishing right now.
Deep Jig 2 for days.

thank you

That’s reasonable, probably more like a steal, given how nice the place is.
I’ve got a unit on Old Spanish Trail at $150/month now. But no power, and the boat isn’t completely covered.
When the sun hits the afternoon, it’s shining on the boat. Which is “doable” because I keep a cover on there, but the hull and trailer are still getting sun on them.
That and I have to remove/put back the cover everytime I want to work on it.
And for whatever reason they’ve been leaving the front gate open all day and night. LOL
So, no power, not totally covered, can’t leave anything out, not 100% secure.
But in one of those closed units I can put half my garage in there (to support the boat), stow the cover, no sun at all on it, keep it charged and ready to go and it can’t be messed with by anyone.
I called that 985 number and it went to voicemail and the mailbox is full, so I’ll go there in person and be the squeaky wheel on Monday.

Yeah, I’ve been doing a lot of reading. Still have more to do.
Now that everyone has had a chance to chime in, I have to say that I’m right there with you.
Always be skeptical, but I see this as a net positive.
Skepticism and accountability are good.
Anyway, we can already look at Boca Chica and Cape Canaveral to get an idea as to what will happen.
And, from what I’ve seen, pretty much just good.
Now, if they were gonna pave over Hopedale to build the Starbase, well…that’s a different story.
But I like the idea of bringing more interest to Louisiana. Get people to have a real stake here to help us fight for the coast.
I also look forward to teaching rocket scientists how to catch pea-brained speckled trout. lol
And what you said about $100 billion being unfathomable. I think you nailed that on the head.
