Lafitte, Louisiana - Freshwater Fishing Report
Canals around Lafitte
Day three on the bass search. Today my good friend, Capt. Joe Bush and I headed for one of my favorite bass fishing areas. The fog delayed our arrival time 10 or 15 minutes but it didn`t slow the bite any. Probably one of the better trips I`ve had in the last couple of years, considering the size of the fish . Spinner baits in white/char. once again was the bait of the day. Working the grass line and holes in the grass produced over 25 bass by 8 am and believe it or not we left them bitting to look for a few specks, which we found shortly after. Here are some awesome pictures of today's catch. Conditions: as good as it gets. Bait: spinner baits for the bass, black/char cocahoe`s on a 1/4 oz jig head for the specks
