Louisiana fishing !!!!

[captbrandon]

Not even the cold front could cool off the action in Venice!!
When I walked outside this morning and found ICE on my boat, I was kinda worried that my streak of GREAT fishing might end. Not to worry though!!

Took off and went in a different direction than I have been fishing for some reason this morning. It paid off though as we nailed the reds, finishing up a limit QUICKLY. With an entire morning still left I figured I might as well go catch some trout while I was at it. Made one quick stop to check a spot I havent fished in a while, and went to the trout MECCA!

Pulled in and started catching some nice trout. AS we worked around they got bigger, and bigger. Before we knew it, we were throwing 5 lbs trout in the boat! It wasnt fast and furious, but really steady. All four of my guys were in on the action, with occasional doubles and triples. We finished out day with 100 of the finest trout i have seen this season! What a day! LImits of both Redfish and Trout.

All our fish were caught on plastics under a cork. Opening night Mud Minnows(old Bayside) and Fearless Frank Deadly Dudely's did the damage. Today I worked a little closer to the shore, but not on the shore....about 30 yards out. the further out we got the smaller the fish were.

Venice is as hot as it can get. I can only imagine how its going to be latter this spring when the fishing is SUPPOSED to be good.
