Again, following a cold front, falling barometer I have found the fish chew a little more aggressively. Look at the whole picture. Even though 1022mB is on the higher end of the chart it fell substantially.

Mono backing and spool packing to braid then it attaches to any setup, either HDS, doublerig, cork, fluoro leader to jig/jerkbait/corky/top water, etc.
It’s easier to unbacklash, throw, etc. Braid changed the game.

I stopped using full spools of fluoro for this reason. Suffix 832 20 lb. braid with 2-3 ft. of fluoro leader and never look back.
You feel the bite, no memory, casts further, etc, etc.

1 oz. HDS or die. <div>
And always medium heavy. With braid you feel everything.
SOMETIMES I’ll use a half Oz over there but I hate losing expensive jigheads. You can get a pack of 16 1oz. For $5 at Walmart.

Welcome back.
I recommend hitting the courses at night little by little, especially IF101. Some of it I suspect you already know, but as you go along you’re gonna pick up what makes these fish & fishery tick.
I don’t really fish that side too often as I’ve always considered that more of a redfish haven so I’m interested to see it from a locals perspective if the trout stack up out there.

I remember arguing with you back in the days of the FB group(Nov. 16,.2023 to be exact), like who’s trying to drive 2 hours one way for a limit?
Boy was I naive…

You were missed. Besides Josh with his TT it was pretty neck and neck. No one got dominated. Thais still waiting for your TOTS breakout performance. I think it will happen below 48 degrees.

Those were some hammer trout you had!

Here’s an old fishing map of Delacroix I overlayed with Google earth.

An an extremely drunk Cocodrie local who I sat next to on a flight gave me these spots to check out. I figure since those are your waters you can try them out before I can.

Thank him for me. I couldn’t be there but he said it much better than I would’ve.
