John good trip as always, nice fish , but let me see jack crevalles under birds verses work, I'll take the jacks, Good fishing in 2013

This Guy is Just Unbelievable Happy New Year John!!!!we might try that area for 1st time Monday if weather good

Extraordinary John, THANK YOU for putting us on the Trout. We fish enough together for me to know you wouldn't mind taking the helm, it was very nice only having to cast yesterday. Now I fully expected for you and Scott 'Nightfisher' to put most of the Trout in the boat but I don't care about being outfished either, I enjoy being on the water. Now I do care that the m/v Holy Mackerel goes to the dock with a nice box of Trout, how or who puts them in there matters not to me. By the way, my cousin 'Red' came over last night, said tell John Rucker his nickname 'Red' is short for 'THE REDMAN.' Thanks again John, you and I would be fishing now IF I didn't mind getting a wet, cold butt, but I do.

Great box John. I knew you guys were scheduled to fish this weeks but thought sure it would be Delacroix, not that it matters...with you three in the same boat, ya'll could build a box fishing in a ditch in the lower 9th.

Think you guys are losing the touch. 71 trout for 4 fisherman. Where's the limit. Just kidding. you guys are truly the A TEAM.

Glad HM took my advice about not fishing Delacroix.

Capt. Kim of course I heeded your advice and I really appreciate the report, being determined is one thing, oblivious is a whole other issue. I still like low water though, gives the Trout a whole lot less places to go. We fish together enough for you to know one of my mottos, I don't care about all the places where the Trout aren't, that's easy, I (we) only focus on where they are.

Samarai, well my friend we worked for those 71 Trout, maybe we are slipping. My hat in my hand for anyone who caught 71 Trout in those conditions yesterday, they're better than I/ we. I keep an open mind always, there is always somebody better or doing something different successfully. Matters not my friend as you know me, I love being on the water regardless. Hope all is well, happy holidays!

HM, Like you said, you listen SOMETIMES...LOL

71 trout yesterday was hard to beat yesterday. seen a bunch of boats yesterday but only other report i got from the area was 66 trout which is another great day for most ppl fishing all across our area. now on the other hand tommorrow would be a challenge. should have went out this morning but yall know how that goes lol.

45 degrees, REALLY NOW?! I swear I quit, please someone find me a place that never gets below 75 degrees, I'll move today!

Mac..... Ummmm Ecudor, South America

John (HM), you could have made the hunt this morning, the mud boat ride into the wind at 05:30 was wonderful.

Secret..... how much ya charge for thoses Mud Boat Rides into the Wind!!!! lol Cold SOB dar!!!!

I dont know what to charge, no one has ever offered to pay me to freeze their azz off........

I know one thing jls, Mr. Mike (Secret Formula) better get that money up front for the mud boat ride!

Yep lol.....

Johnny (Holy Mackerel), I took your approach and didn't have any takers. Chill factor during this morning's ride was calculated to be around 17. Jis, still want to go?

I've never fished Bayou Bienvenue...where is a good place to launch? I see you have been doing really well lately. I'm getting tired of the low tides in the marsh and have not been able to get on much trout the last 2 trips. I'm thinking I would like to try Bayou B.
Keep the posts coming...they fix my addiction when I can't get off to go fishing!
Tight Lines and Happy New Year!

I launch at BAIT INC. off of paris road by the texaco station. They have everything you need :)
