Tough Weekend in Lafitte

Lafitte Weekend Report

This weekend we had a little bit of good, and some bad with the tough weather conditions. On Saturday we had the Nathan Diller party and the Chris Sisson party. I knew that the fishing would be tough after 45 mph winds and a 30 degree drop in temperature late Friday, but off we went. The crews fished really hard in the tough conditions and we finished the day with 70 trout between three boats, and caught everything under a cork. On Sunday I had my last day with Tim and Bill from Canada. These were some nice guys that really know how to fish. The first 2 days we spanked the trout, and then on the final day, they realized how bad fishing can be when mother nature is not on your side. We traveled over 100 miles and found no clean water on either side of the Barataria waterway. We ended up fishing a couple of dead ends in Texaco that had fair water, only catching a couple of trout, a couple of bass and one red. Its great when we can write reports about all the fish we catch, but no matter what you know, or how good of a fisherman you think you are, we all know that days like today, make you really appreciate the good days. The guys did have two out of three good days and are looking forward to their next trip. Got plenty trips this week, with improving weather, so the trout should be right where we left them, so check back for updates. See you on the water.

As Always, Thanks!
