Freshwater Fishing in Louisiana
Has anyone been able to find the ez-scaler. I don't find it on line or anywhere, not even at Mister twister's site? I contacted them but I haven't received a response.

I also caught some on buzz baits even in mid morning. Out of 30 bass I only.... Read More

I'VE USUALLY DONE WELL THERE IN FEBRUARY BUT WITH THE HURRICANES I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY REPORTS.

I BOUGHT A TRASH TRAPPER FROM CABELA'S AND JUST STARTED USING IT. ITS A SIMPLE DESIGN THAT ALLOWS YOU TO REMOVE THE MESH BAG AND STORE IT WHILE TRAILERING.
I LOVE IT. IT STOPS TRASH FROM PILING UP IN MY COMPARTMENTS AND IT KEEPS EVERYTHING IN THE BOAT.

PLEASE CHECK IT OUT. WHATEVER YOU DO KEEP MY WOODS AND WATER CLEAN.
