Cliff Hall ain’t no stranger. He’s been around for a minute, posted a sh*tload of reports on the “old” LAFB Elite FB Group and LAFB Inshore, and was capable and generous to take LAFB Inshore’s reigns when I was ready for someone else to have them.
As you can see, Cliff, this otherwise secluded and private forum is doing well in what amounts to be a niche hobby. Good people = good things.
Glad to have you here. Thanks for posting an intro, though you are an LAFB veteran.

I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it or not. That and I’m not sure I need anymore fishing tackle. LOL If I put a single extra swivel in my garage, it’s going to explode!
-
So it sounds like you had a decent day given all the other reports.
It was great briefly running into you! I would have stayed to chat, but I had my kids in the truck and still had to clean fish and get them home. They were whupped after getting drug across a 60 mile wild goose chase. lol
Hope to see you again out there!

I know people run them on rivers where that’s a common need, but so much in the marsh. It’s certainly a lot more forgiving in the marsh. Yeah, there are some things you can hit, and I’ve hit them all, but I don’t think it warrants a kick back plate.
-
Wham, bam, thank you, ma’am.
I love seeing this.
Yeah, I think the same thing: how often do I pass up fish looking for better conditions? Especially water clarity.
That’s why I overhauled that section of 101 and basically ended with: don’t go after the wild goose chase of looking for perfect water clarity when there isn’t any in a given area. It’s a really tough concept to mete out, so this forum helps clear up specific scenarios, like what’s going on in Delacroix right now.
Very good report. Thanks for posting it!
-
That FS9 is pretty sweet. That’s a really good image. Looks like you’re getting the hang of it.
Great report, thanks for posting!

How did it go?

“Got up and got my son dressed while he was asleep.”
That is dedication. You should get an award for that.
“As soon as I put him in his seat he started crying for mom.”
Man, I get it. It happens. It is what it is. You tried. lol That’s all there is to it.
“Coming out of Spanish bayou I must have bumped a ghost crab trap.”
Or any number of things. I know my lower unit got bumped about a dozen times in the last week.
Great report, thanks for posting it.
I’m not sure when I am going next, but I am thinking it’s time to strike out from the usual stuff and try something very different.
I know in another posted I mentioned PAC. Grand Isle and Lafitte will be turning on soon if not already.
With the river in single digits I am aching to get back out there and learn the cane stubble game.

“Well my daughter woke me up at Midnight because her ankle was hurting :/”
LOL What are kids for? What would we do without them? lol
“The water was so low that I had to help the boat off the trailer.”
If you ever do drop your trailer wheels over the edge, floating your boat over the top and pulling up on it with an anchor is a way to get it off. I’ve done that once or twice at that exact ramp.
“I wonder if there just wasn’t enough light for them to really pick off my lure”
Yeah, sounds about right. I’ve had that happen before. You were early. Which, by the way, great job on that.
Excellent report. Thanks for posting.
-
Well, I hate hearing that mixed report. I wonder if your guide friend missed the morning bite there?
In another post I said MRGO/Long Rocks are Jahncke’s Ditch.
But I do have an itch for Golden Meadow and PAC. Specifically the Sulfur Mine and Catfish Lake.
-
That’s all I need to know. Thank you so much!
-
You can help me out if you want.
The first thing I need to know is if any Venice guides down there are catching trout. I checked a few pages and only saw redfish, drum and sheepshead.
I’m sure there’s redfish spots somewhere, but I bet it’s not close to the marina. I’ll start looking around Blind Bay.
-
I love this idea and have thought it would be neat to rent a camp and do what we are already doing in this forum, but at scale in person.
However, I have a giant non-LAFB poker in the fire that would keep me busy enough that I can’t commit to something like that. If I am able to, I won’t know until the summer time itself.

“he was back cleaning his boat while I was running around like a lunatic.”
Actually, I took an ass whipping for next 50+ miles. LOL
