Where did my post go? It contained nothing derogatory about JLS. I was just asking what happened to his post where he admitted that his box shot was bogus. Please explain why my post was deleted. Thanks.

Hey guys I'm new to the lake and trying to get a feel. The forecast has winds at around 10mph. Should I wait for another day or just go for it?

  • Full boxes everyday
Good times today having Will, Brandon & Robert Russ, and Stanley Barre back onboard. The bite is good as it gets right now. We had the trout coming in two at a time as soon as we pulled up to our first stop, and the Burn Hacks were flying. Fast and furious action as the trout were eating up our double rigged Shrimp Creole Matrix Shad. The guys stuffed the Yeti full and we left the fish.... Read More

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

Opinions & Responses in Fourchon / Grand Isle in Southeast Louisiana
I read The Tri Parish Times, The Gazette, and The Comet on line. All in my opinion are great newspapers. In the jeer section of Saturdays on line edition of the comet. I felt legitimate questions were raised along, with several inaccuracies.

I would like at this time to answer those questions and correct the mistakes.

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.

  • Fun times with my crew today
  • Zach with a nice trout
  • Alex got her a hefty trout!!!
Zach Templet, Nicole Tusa, Thomas Eakin, and Alex Hazlaris joined me today. Windy conditions made for a tougher bite than we have been having all week. Our first stop only produced a hand full of fish so we moved. Second stop found a fast and furious bite almost everycast, but it was mostly undersized fish. It was a stick and move kinda day grinding to find fish. We never got on a good steady.... Read More

Great having Josh Cowart back on board with me. Josh brought his dad Greg and brother Courtney. No 25 mph winds were going to stop us from loading the boat. It was fish on at our first stop, as Courtney had the hot rod slinging the yellow mouths in every-cast. Once the bite slowed down we moved a few hundred yards and started slamming them again with everyone slinging fish in every-cast. Our.... 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

Fishing in Fourchon / Grand Isle in Southeast Louisiana
First time headed out to Grand Isle area Wednesday to go fishing. Planning on hitting up Elmers Island and possibly Grand Isle National Park. If anyone has any recommendations on what type of rigs work best or maybe point me in a good direction it would greatly be appreciative.

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.

Had a steady trout bite today on the tracks. Almost didn't go because of all the rain. Sat at Dockside and watched it rain for about an hour. Got the boat in the water for 8am with sky's clearing. Knowing we had to be back for 11 and looking at the dirty water we were not expecting much. Once we hit mid lake and put the poles in the water the fish were waiting. Ended the day with a nice.... Read More
