Everything was going just fine until I felt some heartburn and a little acid indigestion. It’s rare for me but not unheard of. Then things got worse — and in a couple of days I was in the emergency room and pretty sick. […]
Imagine our surprise when we walked into Janelle Folse’s Raceland home and she declared that she was going to prepare a Cajun stromboli. […]
Well, we survived another Deep South summer, although this one seemed to be more wet at times than hot. My hope is that, in spite of the heat and humidity, you have long since been visiting your hunting properties mowing, spraying, repairing and building stands, supplemental feeding, and working trail cameras. […]
October is arguably the best month of the year for coastal Louisiana kayak fishermen. The weather is mild, with predictable patterns, and the fish are hungry. […]
The Revo Inshore has been continuously refined since its introduction several years ago, and it’s better than ever. Packing a whopping 24 pounds of Carbon Matrix drag, it will beat whatever swims in the coastal salt. […]
How: Try for trout, reds and flounder at the MRGO rock dam. Use popping corks with live bait or plastic tails near the rocks. Fish flounder away from the rocks on the north side using Gulp or live shrimp on a quarter-ounce jighead. […]
It’s rarely the first choice for modern anglers boasting tackle bags full of the latest-and-greatest, but it’s always a good idea to keep a Carolina rig handy. Now, the slow drag may seem askew compared to more active presentations common to the fall season. […]

Kayak fishing tournaments are held year-round across the coast, and offer friendly competition and great prizes. No matter your skill level, fishing these tournaments makes you a better kayak angler. […]
I remember buying my bow several years ago. I spent several days at the shop bouncing back and forth between a couple premium brand bows. None of them ever felt right to me. […]
Feeding deer in Louisiana to lure them in close enough for a shot is standard operating procedure. […]
Regular choupique anglers all agree on one thing: The fish must be cleaned alive. Even if held properly iced but dead, as are other fish, the texture of their flesh very rapidly deteriorates. […]
Fishing choupique the Lirette way is power fishing, and that starts with the poles. […]
Several companies, such as Scent Killer and Scent-A-Way, manufacture liquids that neutralize odor on fabrics. These can be applied after laundering, or before storage or a hunt. The ease of use and convenience make it an ideal product to keep in your hunting bag all season long. […]
The Lirettes were fishing with permission in canals on private property. But choupique are found virtually everywhere in Louisiana, ranging from swamp and freshwater marsh bayous and canals to the state’s natural lakes and reservoirs from Toledo Bend on down. […]
It is often said that Cajuns eat anything. This picturesque pair may be poster boys for that adage. Their Cajun accents were so thick that they could have been cut with a knife and served on a cheese tray. […]
