I love fishing this area. I’ve spent a lot of time running around Bayou Segnette onward to Cataouatche and Salvador. I used to work out of the swamp tour there and would go fishing if I had off between tours.
The top of Salvador can have some really good grass. Lots of gorgeous redfishy water there, I’m glad to hear it’s still awesome.
Also, great job on switching gears and kicking ass. That has to feel good.
Couple questions for ya:
1. I’m guessing you meant to say that wind was blowing from the north?
2. Were you able to sight fish the reds at all? It sounds like you were blind casting if you caught a gar.
I’m not sure what kinda of trolling motor you’re running, but just standing on a cooler can make all the difference if you think you won’t bust your ass on the hookset. lol (I’ve never fallen off a cooler *wink wink*)
it is a very nice ramp.
It’s all you need. And the people are nice. I love Westwego. Such a genuine, all-Louisiana town. Working at the swamp tour there was such a blast, then getting a cold beer at Mona Lisa Lounge afterward. lol
Anyway, that’s awesome you went out there and smashed ’em. I’d be interested to see how many you otherwise would have seen. I am guessing 60-100.
Great report, thanks for posting it!
