Well, on the bright side you didn’t get skunked. Great report, thank you for still posting one even though it was a tough trip. Good luck with plan Redfish tomorrow!

Well, you’re a hell of a hip shooter, lol. Nice work and great report. Thank you!

Dude, hilarious! Similar to your story, after he posted his rant he posted his Lake Borgne planning trip which, if you saw mine (I didn’t post a planning trip post, just a report) and then looked at his, it was pretty much the SAME THING, expect for a few more spots on mine. To make it worse, he was going on the same day as I planned on going, lol! Instead of letting my anxiety of people thinking I cheated and just copied off of his plan (which I’ve actually had my plan since last year) get the best of me I just chalked it up to “I must be doing something right” and that Inshore 101 has taught me well.

Holy Schnikes that’s awesome!! Man you got me inching to make it back out there, lol. I had a small window to fish Sunday afternoon when the tide was falling and was able to get on a really nice bite at the reef . I wasn’t able to execute my entire Lake B plan but hopefully sometime next week when I get off conditions will allow me to get out there early. Awesome day and great report, thank you!

Just adding to Captain Devin’s plan mentioned above. I fished that area a lot last summer and had great success at the rigs he has on his plan. Given the South wind conditions for all three days I’d fish Friday and Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, as mentioned by Capt. Devin’s. I think those windows are best for that area if you make it out there. The picture I attached below has spots on the western side of that area that I fished last year. I would for sure start East at the rigs mentioned by Capt. Devin, but if they don’t produce which is unlikely, I would definitely try the “Point Mass Reef” if conditions allow. I would fish it on my way to the Sulphur Mine, other rigs, and Bird Island Reef. If you do make it to Point Mass, fish all the chair wells in the area on the bottom with a 3/8oz jig and matrix in whatever color is appropriate for the water condition or fish with a HDS. Just know you’ll be exposed without any protection except for the lee side of the chair wells and Sulphur Mine if you fish those areas. As far as “Bird Island Reef”, I would fish it with a Four Horse cork and whatever you choose for underneath. Good luck!

Apologies, the spot labeled “Salt Mine” in my picture is actually the “Sulphur Mine”. I just never changed since I built this plan out, lol.

I have taken that route before, you’re good to go.

Hopefully next time I can get out early and execute my entire plan. I appreciate the intel on the removed rig. Thank you!

Thank you sir!

I was really surprised at first given the conditions and how we caught them, but I’m pretty sure the falling tide made all the difference. If you make your way out there soon try a HDS with a sparkle beetle. Thank you!

Memories made for sure! Thank you!

Yessir, thank you!
