I heard good reports , just don’t know how reliable they were. Heard 20” trout … for what that’s worth lol

[Daniel_Gig]

The one for matrix shad is still good. I’d like to think I’m not cheap, but $30 is $30 lol

[Daniel_Gig]

Heard that. If they don’t work, not the end of the world. But when I order $100+ worth of shads and jigs, Its worth the little effort for me to try to use it if it works.

I just couldn’t find them using the search or navigating the page. Thanks Devin.

Beautiful bulls there.

Is the area still swarming with 12” trout lol… every trip out there this summer fall has been something of a let down. Hasn’t been my year out there. 3 years ago, yes it was crazy. But lately everytime I make that run I regret it afterwards lol

(Just my own personal experience , I realize some folks have been doing okay out there)

[Daniel_Gig]

Nice!

No issues for us in Slidell off military. We took all kinds of stuff down to prepare, but left a can of WD 40 on my trash can by accident. It literally didn’t even fall over lol

Looks good. Seems like your enjoying your new home base of Delacroix…

[Daniel_Gig]

Obviously, tomorrow has come and gone. How’d you make out? Lake borgne has been hit or miss a lot lately. There are fish around in deeper areas. But this time of year expect small trout

[Daniel_Gig]

Thanks for reporting. I fished down there on the 2nd the wind was howling. Looks like you made out well

[Daniel_Gig]

Show me the content in question. You talking about the lady that puts hats on fish?

[Daniel_Gig]

Wait… gear lube is not supposed to be black…. at least mine isn’t, mine is a clear /yellowish color. Used it will be milky… slightly

You’re saying yours is normally black?

We are talking lower unit lube right ?

What brand is the lube?

Yeah that is the one i thought about… lol

I try to be considerate that its a live animal, whether or not it “feels”. But i think we all do things that to someone else could be viewed as disrespectful to the fish. I have a whole list of things that i thought seemed disrespectful to the fish (at first) : throwing multiple fish on the deck and leaving them while casting back out. Ripping the hooks out the mouth instead of “unhooking”. Holding fish by their gills(especially if releasing) . But now, i get it. I’ve done all these things, especially on a hot bite.

The hats and costumes seem a bit peculiar to me, but whatever floats their boat…

[Daniel_Gig]

Ah okay that explains it lol. I’ve only used Yamalube, and I was thinking somehow your oil went from clear to black..

[Daniel_Gig]

Are these forum pages searchable/ viewable by none members?

[Daniel_Gig]

Disregard, I am dumb. I fixed it by visiting standard maps website. They have a FAQ with trouble shooting steps.

Should’ve done that before coming here to rant and whine lol
