    For my trip that you mentioned, the sky was clear early then turned overcast around 9am. I do think that clear skys and full moons make for full trout by or close to daybreak. It’s something the old man I fish socolait with always said too.

    Great report! I sent a few buddies to fish where in areas I caught them in The Pen and all but 1 struck out both days. I think I’m going to go tomorrow and try to track these bastards down because it looks like they have moved 😂

    I do similar to you. I run 30 lbs braid with a 2 to 3′ 30 lbs flurocarbon leader tied with a uni to uni. I use an improved clinch not to the cork. I use a 20 lb (I would rather have this pop than above my cork) flurocarbon leader from 18-30″ depending on where I’m fishing, tied on both ends via improved clinch. Usually I have a Marker 54 jerk shrimp or a death grip with whatever bait I’m feeling on it.

    My guess is Little Lake/Hackberry/St Mary’s Point but I’ll have to confirm next week.

    The sea turtles was a play with Devin’s report the other day where he actually caught one! I didn’t even know that was an option until I saw that report! 😂

    If you look back at my reports from last year, Lafitte treated me very well.

    I felt this reply 😂😂😂. Those bad trips just make you appreciate the good trips. With that being said, I never want to go fishing Oak River again. It was a one and done for me. It’s not because of the horrible trip I had either, that boat launch was HORRIBLE.

    I was surprised too. Only reason I even tried is because of how far in they were in Delacroix.
