Great Day in Lafitte!

The last time John and Larry were here was in January when we had the coldest two days that we have had in 5 years. The first day we couldn't even fish because they didn't have enough clothes, and that is saying something with two guys coming from New York. Today that wasn't the problem. We left the dock at Victoria Inn just a little before 7am. The only thing I was worried about was finding clean water. The first area was ok, and fishable, but only produced small fish. Our second stop was the gold mine, or should I say silver mine. The trout today were the largest I've seen in a while. They had their easy limit of 50 fish from 15 to 21 inches and more. By the time we quit we were releasing quality keeper trout for tomorrow, hopefully they will still be around. Bait of the day was glow beetles under a cork, but the bigger fish were caught on H&H cocahoes on the bottom. Out again tomorrow with the same guys.

As Always, Thanks!
