Sorry, haven't posted in a while. Just finished 6 straight days of great December fishing. The weather threw everything at us this week. 80 deg one day, 40 the next, 20 deg water temp swings and high winds, topical South Louisiana winter. Lol. We adjusted our strategy and was successful every day. That why I love winter fishing, the fish are hiding in the marsh and we can catch in almost any weather condition. Short boat rides and all protected waters. We have no off time of year down here, only limit is the few days of nasty weather that I don't want to be out in.

The trout are starting the Spring time migration towards the Gulf meaning they are leaving the deep marsh and right now we are catching under birds in the lakes and bays. This makes for easy pickings, short boat ride and fishing in protected waters, actually the best time for kids! Weather is mild with maybe a chilly short ride in the mornings but warming to perfect temps after daylight. It is normal to hook in to a couple of Bull Reds each day while Trout fishing without even going after Reds. The Trout will continue to move towards the close in platforms reefs and barrier islands of the gulf and we will continue to follow along and catch. In just a few weeks we will be running straight out to the beautiful islands along the coast for big trout and reds. Besides the fast and furious fishing action it a beautiful trip with lots to see. I never get tired of it! Book your trip, bring your camera and join me!

I just finished 3 fun and interesting days of catching with Dave and Ron. These guys know what they are doing and brought their own tackle, it was very interesting watching them catch on lures we never use here. Tuesday... After a 15 hour drive to get here Minday and some rest at the Reel Inn they were at the dock early and ready. Right behind a cold front and 15 deg water temp drop we still caught trout. Had to work for them but together enough for a fish fry Tuesday night with some left to bring home. Wednesday.. Started out with calm conditions ans birds starting to work. We got a good start and when the wind turned on we jumped in the marsh and continued to catch. Ended up with 35 trout with and some reds. Thursday... Wind blew all night but calmed down at day break, calm before the storm! Lol. We had to hunt for them but, at the third stop we found hundred trout. It took about 30 minutes to put 35 trout on ice before running from the storms. 3 different weather patterns in 3 days but, we made it happen! CATCHDAT! Get YOUR trip booked! Capt Elton Rodrigue
