Today Wednesday 3/18

Today my crew managed to get it done before the rain was due without a problem. After a short run and 2 stops my crew managed to put a really nice box of fish together and make it back to the dock around 11:00 to beat the rain. Both of the young ones wanted redfish and that's what they got, while at the same time managing to give their dad a tough time by catching redfish after redfish. Today's count was 20 redfish and 20 drum for my guest from Oklahoma. All fish were caught 2' under a cork using Berkley Gulp and Matrix shad. The fishing in Hopedale Louisiana is really unbelievable and is just going to get better each and every day. Call Capt. Sal today to book your trip and enjoy the fishing adventure of a lifetime. Still have a few days open this month so call and book a trip today.
