thanks for the report

[mschultz304]

Way to hang tough! Props

[mschultz304]

lol!

[mschultz304]

That was pretty hard core. This sport is not for the faint of heart……

Thanks for the report

[mschultz304]

You made a good on the fly decision. There’ll be plenty trout in the weeks and months ahead. I’m curious as to how far down you went in the South Pass. Did you get all the way down to the end?

[mschultz304]

cool, thanks! I like that idea

[mschultz304]

Nice report, thanks.

[mschultz304]

How do you like that white craw? I threw it the other day and the only hit I got was once when a red basically caught it on the fly, it never came up when it hit. I’m thinking maybe that I’m not letting it sink enough and maybe it’s acting like a top water bait

I am in the same boat, pun intended, getting ready to fish Venice this year and not nervous, but wary. Thanks, I may do this too.

I see you have to have a paid subscription for texting. Are you getting that, or are you using it primarily so you can see where you’re at and give directions for getting back or for Seat Tow to come get you?

It was a grind this weekend everywhere, you did good going home with dinner.

[mschultz304]

A grind, but a good meat haul. Same day as I had in Delacroix. I’ll eat the hell of them catfish, can’t beat it.

[mschultz304]

Happy Jacks used to be my home base for years when I lived in Belle Chasse. We go down there once in a while when the water in Delacroix is really low or we just want a change of pace. You’re in the right areas, those camps will turn on any time now.

Sounds like you got those kids interest piqued, keep up the good work. Women and children on boats is exhausting, but it’s a labor of love.

I thought about chasing trout in Delacroix last weekend but I saw the Flotilla heading out and decided to do redfish until I hear the trout are heating up more. I talked to a guy who did the standard route, 4 Horse, Lake Robin, etc. and didn’t do too well. I want to wait until the Delcroix Highway starts rolling.

I did see a shrimp boat up in Lost Lake though, so the shrimp must be coming in.

[mschultz304]

That’s good to know! I just bought a Minn Kota

I have an 18 1/2 foot, so I’m there with you. I’ve fished the river a few times and those wakes can rock your world, you just have to watch for them. Some of them are very latent, and you forget that 15 minutes ago barge passed, ad all of a sudden you’re surfing. Just awareness. One of the guys posted a pretty safe route for smaller boats a couple weeks ago, I’ll look for it and repost it
