I must have missed the original. Thanks for the bump. I have put it into GED just in case.

Congrats. Looks like a nice clean boat.

Im not much help on this as I use the cheap walmart glasses. But I have wondered how much of a difference the more expensive glasses make. I am hard on a set of sunglasses (in the event that I even remember to bring them out with me).

I can fit under HWY 11 w a T top. The trestle bridge under normal operation is left open unless a train is coming. They usually only close it right before a train comes and then open it back up after it has passed. There is a phone number on the bridge and I think they monitor a certain radio channel as posted earlier.

Thanks for the report.
I dont use spinning reels for jigging so I cant speak to their use for that. I have a Shimano Sedona (maybe, I think) and a St. Croix Triumph rod and a few Penn Battle III combos that have great reviews and recommendations. I dont think the Penn rods are anything special, especially since the combo isnt much more than the reel itself.

Thank yall. Its not so much the tracks as it is the waypoints and routes. I have copied everything to a new card and will clean up in GED.

Thank you for the report. We were out there on Saturday and didnt do much good. Glad yall were able to scratch some out.
@Daniel_Gig How is Chef Harbor? I have launched at South Shore Marina the times I have been out there because I wasnt aware of Chef Harbor. Last weekend with the low water, it was a close call getting the boat off the trailer at south shore. It would be nice to have another option to launch from in that area. Plus parking and restrooms with kids and women at south shore is not the best.

Im around Baton Rouge as well. It makes for a long day for there and back trips. I hate waking up at 3 in the am.

Welcome. I think that area can be a tough area to learn but there are a lot of opportunities around around there and a lot of places to go from there. We were just at that marina this weekend. That is one of my favorite marinas.

Thank you for the report. Good to see trout are still out there and starting to be caught. Seems like it was only reds for a spell after the freeze. Hopefully more will subscribe to the catch and release or only take what you need philosophy for a while.

Thats good info to have. Thank you.

Outside of working on the bridge or maintenance it is default to open. The first time I fished the trestles, I crossed under it. We fished for about 30 minutes before the bridge closed. It stayed closed with no train in sight and I was getting worried that I was stuck on that side. I called the number on the sign on the side of the bridge and the worker (manned out of AL I think) explained everything to me. But for a few minutes I was a little worried to say the least.

Thats great. The cleaning station is minor for me compared to all of the other things. Looking at it on GED doesnt do it justice. We drove by and you can tell that the owner has been doing a lot of upgrades. I will absolutely use them next time I launch in that area. While I try to pick up a some live shrimp if available just to have its not a deal breaker. Thank you for the update.

Do you have any recommendations of other places to stay? I do really like the marina and have stayed there several times, just this last weekend was the latest. Being able to wet slip the boat is very nice. Having other options is always nice, just in-case. Thank you.

100% correct.
