Strung out on string Steve Smith is a fanatic about the line he uses. I asked why he uses spinning reels, when so many other guides would be lost without their baitcasters. His answer was simple, but led directly to his passion about lines. MORE ... |

Make It Magnolia It didn’t take much arm-twisting to persuade Casey Kieff (504-512-7171) to take me and a couple buddies on a quick trip to fish Magnolia Lagoon. The lagoon is a 15- or 20-minute boat ride out of either Shell Beach or Hopedale, and is well known for holding two things in abundance — redfish and stumps. MORE ... |

The Ardent Edge The Ardent “Edge” series of baitcasting reels were designed to be unbelievably durable, yet light enough to be fished comfortably all day. The entire Ardent Edge line of reels; consisting of the Edge Elite, the Edge Tour, the Edge Inshore Pro, the Edge Pro and the Edge Tournament series, feature Ardent’s new Patent Pending Drag Tracking Technology. Drag Tracking reduces the chance of line break on large fish by eliminating the sharp angles caused by the level wind eyelet being out of sync with the line location on the spool in drag mode.

Terminal Tide Lines One of the things that most intimidates me about fishing inshore saltwater fish as opposed to freshwater fish is how much more vast the playing field is. The father of structure fishing for bass, Buck Perry, is famous for stating the obvious: "The bass are either deep, shallow or somewhere in between." Inside the confining rim of a reservoir, bass are limited as to where they can be. And all Perry was trying to intimate was that if the fish weren’t biting in one place, there were two others to try.

Hopedale Front Weather cycles pretty much make the fishing world go round in South Louisiana. The same cold fronts — along with the waning photoperiod — that drive speckled trout inland and the masses of white shrimp out also serve to sometimes violently flush the marsh when strong north winds make their way through the coastline.

Trout having Thanksgiving feast at Delacroix's Skippy Lake For the male of our species, few days on the calendar are more cherished than Thanksgiving with all the food, football and, yes, even the family. But once the foil-wrapped leftovers are tucked away in the fridge and our wives are scanning the sale papers for insane Black Friday deals, we all feel that call to get in the woods or on the water. If you're more inclined to the latter than the former, it would be hard to beat the action in Delacroix's Skippy Lake right now. MORE ... |
