Thanks for report. The dolphins (they arent porpoises) definitely follow our boats around. And they 100% are picking off anything you throw back. Im a conservationist at heart, but on my last trip i found myself like the offshore guys with sharks saying ” i wish we hunt these dolphins” lol. I assume their only natural predators out there are other dolphins and sharks.

I’ve made a few trips lately but as you’ve pointed out, the fishing just isn’t that great in lake p basin at the moment. Hopefully that changes.

I have a slip right there near vinots, the past 2-3 years I’ve done reasonably well over there.

Yeah it’s usually a lot of running on the water, but it’s like 20mins from my house. The 2 biggest perks have been being able to make frequent quick trips(like 2-3 hr trips), and in the fall/spring when that area turns on (aka everyone and their brother is out) I can skip every line and the associated ramp circus that follows.

When I say I plan on getting out the slip at the end of this year , I just mean ending my none existent lease. For 2 reasons, the reason I’ve listed above, and because I hate renting things, really considering buying waterfront land and build my own slips… but time will tell on that. Anyways point is I’ll still be trailering till then when necessary . I normally trailer all winter anyways, I’ll typically run from south shore marina to mrgo bayou b. Area

I would have never gone down there and launched in the dark without having a track to follow. Although now having been down there, it’s not any more confusing then anywhere else. In fact it’s probably better than the rigolets area.. as far as navigational aids go.

Thanks Devin. I knew going down there for the first time that cards were stacked against me. But now that I’ve went it’s opened my mind up to other places in that area. Like grand isle… that’s next on my list of places to go to next. I’m actually considering moving my boat out of the slip and start storing it on trailer at my house, after this fall. That will motivate me to try different places.
