    Just realized I completely misread your question with this beer in my non typing hand. Definitely Delacroix. Same strategy.

    I just have bull reds on the brain.

    I typically catch bull reds in midsummer thru November. I caught two notable ones this season and truth be told, it’s always a surprise when I do. The one on the left was over an oyster bed in Port Sulphur (report is in here I believe) on a Vudu under a popping cork. And the one on the right was fishing lights on the southwest corner of Lake Catherine jigging a Vudu in like 3 feet of water. I’m sure they’re around Borgne but if I wasn’t going to Port Sulphur/MG or Leeville area (which is where I would try and target them), Delacroix would be my next spot. I like 4 ways, points, ponds, and anywhere I see bait working. Good luck!

    “I quit once skin started coming off my jigging hand.”

    Damn, I felt this sentence.

    Heres the problem I have had.

    Sometimes if i fish a double rig, I’ll hook 2 reds. If those reds go in opposite directions, it almost always wishbones the rig.

    I’ve considered doing like a super sabiki for the Trestles.

    Long lining for trout would be willllddddd.

    But I’ll probably never do it…

    Everyone has that ex, and if you don’t, its you.

    I know there’s no science to it at all. The joke is that it makes me feel better when I don’t catch fish to blame it on some invisible force that I can’t control like that horoscope toting ex saying she can’t be blamed for her actions because Mercury was in Gatorade.

    I’ll check out the book. Yes there was plenty of bait on the screen. I have been opening the stomachs of the bigger ones but thus far they have been empty even those they are very far.

    NAILED IT!

    Family immigrated from island Fanø, Denmark in 1860 after 400 years there.

    And where do you immigrate to if you’re tired of inbreeding?

    MOBILE, ALABAMA!

    Whats crazy is I probably hooked 5-7(using a fast action rod for a while and it didnt have enough backbone) and lost them on the way back to the boat, but TBH I don’t like cleaning tons of fish and my soft cooler was already full.

    It was a good one. Hopefully I can get down to Venice before its time to go back to work. 😉

    100% right. I’ve been fishing most of my life, moved here around a dozen years ago and I was stuck on 19.5″ and lost some 20+ at the boat so today was extra special. I have had a couple of epic days of consistent 18-19″ and my experience is the big trout stick together. This pic was this time of year 2 years ago. Its like when you find that school, you can’t miss. Hopefully conditions continue to foster big trout and 22″ will be my old record.
