Well Capt. Ben did it again today! His crew of four, Fast Eddie, Barry, Jay, and Parker, put 100 Specks in the boat by 8:03AM. It was live shrimp under a cork and Redbone's Speculizer that did the job. After catching the Trout, Capt. Ben took them in search of RedFish. No luck here as the tide had stop and the Reds weren't biting.

Yesterdays, Capt. Ben waited for his fishing group to show, which in the end never showed up. While hanging out at Breton Sound Marina, some people who were going out in their own boat asked if he would be a fishing guide for them. They left the dock at 7:45AM and by 9:30AM they had 85 Specks ranging from 2 1/2 pounds to 3 1/2 pounds.

Friday, Capt. Ben had Jefferson Parishes finest and friends. It was a group of four and they wound up catching 75 fish. It was 62 Speckled Trout, a 15 1/2 pound RedFish, and the rest were white trout. Capt. Ben said this was a pretty tough day of fishing because of the neap tide.
