Capt Nathan and I went to have a look see yesterday after hurricane Gustav to check on the fishing. We found trout from Lake Robin all the way to bay Lafourche but most were on the small side. Birds wee working in the open lakes. We also found shrimp jumping out the water from our troll motor just about everywhere so things look good for the upcoming fall. We stopped at 1 or 2 points to try the reds and had our limit in no time and threw back just as many. So after Ike passes us buy and the winds settle the fishing should be hot. Our docks suffered minor damage and we got things all cleaned up Monday. I will be back in action next week so if you would RATHER BE FISHING give me call and we will do the rest. We have several days open so make that call and get into some fishing action.
