Toledo Bend is vast, so there are myriad areas in which to look for bream beds.

If your anchor gets hung up, Lyle Soileau said it can be retrieved by pulling up and down on the anchor line until the anchor flips over the obstruction on which it’s hung. Never cut an anchor lose again

Bream will stack up where tangles of cover is scattered along the lake bottom, and that means anchoring often results in anchor hang-ups.

Find a pockmarked cove on the Bend, and you can slam the bream. Groving deep-hooked fish
May 15 at 7:00 am
Any slack in the line will allow fish to swallow the hook pretty deep. And the small mouths of bream can make it difficult to remove them.

A length of rope and a length of electrical conduit are all Lyle Soileau needs to keep his boat in place. A better anchor
May 15 at 7:00 am
Although Lyle Soileau definitely uses a standard anchor, he also has another tool to help hold his pontoon boat in place.

The Pickets located in Ship Shoal 26 has provided consistent summer trout fishing for years, but the rigs and associated structures are in the process of being removed as part of the Idle Iron Policy. Popular trout-fishing destination known as the Pickets being removed
May 10 at 1:46 pm
The Pickets are hallowed ground in the Houma trout-fishing world. If you fish out of Cocodrie and Dularge during the summer, the odds are pretty darned good you schedule time at this perennial hotspot to add big specks to your box.

Most of anglers don't even think about getting their boat trailers inspected before heading out, but state law does require proof of inspection — just like with cars.

The day started out, well, rough. I hadn't slept well at all, and then I lost an altercation with a coffee cup. I was left teary-eyed as the hot liquid dripped out of my close-cropped hair and down my face.

Feds should get out of the way
May 01 at 7:00 am
Regional management of red snapper just won’t work. The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act under which snapper management is conducted simply won’t allow for it. Nope. Won’t work. Can’t do it. Won’t do it.

Federal authorities have signaled their displeasure over Louisiana's state season, which does not comply with federal mandates, by saying it will close the federal season off the state after only nine days once the federal season begins June 1. Feds say Louisiana could face nine-day red snapper season
April 02 at 10:50 am
Federal fisheries managers delivered a message to Gulf states in late March: If states continue to set red snapper seasons that do not comply with federal mandates, the feds will shut down fishing off those coasts within days of the official June 1 opening.

Time to move north?
April 01 at 7:00 am
Last July I wrote about my hope for the Louisiana coast, which seems to be melting away like so much candle wax, because of projects funded by the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act.
