General in Southeast Louisiana
who and why do people put salt on crawfish before boiling, what is the point when crawfish live in freshwater And will your second sack ( in same water) with half the amount of seasoning added be hotter than the first, or do you start with fresh water and add the same seasoning as the first batch.Just a debate between some coonasses need input to settle Thanks for reading and giving you input.

Kayak Fishing in Fourchon / Grand Isle in Southeast Louisiana
I think I'm gonna head to GI/Fourchon this weekend. I haven't been down there in forever though. I was wondering if someone could just point me in the right direction to maybe get on a few fish. I'm not looking for a handout, just some general advice. If anyone wants to meet up, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Deer Hunting in Louisiana
My son and I have just ound out that our hunting lease is being completely clear cut and we will be losing it. We had built a camp on a friends property near the lease and due to high timber prices he will be selling his trees and following with selling his land.
This puts my son and I out of a place to hunt next this coming season and future seasons.
My friend will be buying me out for my.... Read More

Deer Hunting in Louisiana
Hey guys we have a lease in Greensburg. It is mostly pines and shooting lanes since the paper company will not let you make huge food plots really.
I have a spot that mostly consist of shooting lanes about 12-15 yards wide and 200-300 yards long. What should I plant there to keep the plot going? We used a Mississippi Blend last year we got from Dykes Feed in Montepellier last year. It was.... Read More

  • Ray with his lunker Specks.
Hello Again Cyber Anglers,

Fished Wednesday through Sunday out of Boudreaux’s Waterfront in Leeville and with the exception of Sunday’s wind, all of the trips were in outside waters. The key to us catching this week was the tide. I like fishing Specks on an incoming tide and despite the heavy trawling in the area, water did not clean up further north until the incoming tide picked up. Places.... Read More

  • She showed them how to gig and they didn't miss one, surprisingly.
  • Biggest trout of the trip on artificial. Caught on Vudu shrimp.
  • He landed this 40' jack- trout fishing using a 1/8oz jig head and live shrimp.
I took my girlfriends cousins down to Grand Isle last week for a couple days and we were really blessed with some decent enough whether and a whole lot of sun! Two of the boys had never fished saltwater before so it was fun seeing them reel in the big jack and letting them experience Louisiana's beauty. The flounder are running in the marshes right now and we were able to gig 10 in about 1.5.... Read More

Inshore Fishing in Shell Beach / Hopedale / Reggio in Southeast Louisiana
Hello everyone. I have been an avid reader of this site for years. Most of that time has been with pure envy as I read fishing reports from so many of you.

I've done surf fishing and bank fishing all my life, but never had access to a boat. Well that changed over the winter with a 19ft bay boat with a 150HP motor!

My buddy and I spent the winter fishing Hopedale launching out of BSM. We.... Read More

Inshore Fishing in Fourchon / Grand Isle in Southeast Louisiana
Taken a ride to Grand Isle the weekend of 6/7-10. I have been hearing the usual reports about trout on the beach. I was curious what the situation is with crabs in the surf. We have gotten skunked the last few years in June. Not looking for secrets just curious if anyone has caught any or not. A lot of extra gear to lug if there aren't any down there. Let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

  • It was the Bay Stealth that died not my vintage Spartan.
My buddy Jay and I headed out of Breton Sound Marina around 5 AM Wednesday morning looking forward to a trout slam on the rocks. We were headed out via the Spoil Canal when the motor died. We could not get it going. Thank God for our SEA Tow membership! Hot Rod of Sea tow was on his way from Slidell and we bided our time fishing on the bottom for monster gaff tops. Around 9 AM Capitan Guidry.... Read More

I was fishing with clients on Saturday when the inevitable happened. I was barely idling in the MRGO making an adjustment for my clients, when Bam! I hit a pipe and stalled out my motor. I didn’t hit it hard and thought I’d be okay, but when I put the boat back in gear, it was obvious I tore up my lower unit. I called Captain Frank and Captain Markham to pick up my guys and continue fishing..... Read More
