Fourchon

Headed to Fourchon again Saturday. Fishing for Seatrout, Whitetrout, Redfish, and Red Snapper.

Louisiana increased Snapper limit to 4 per person per day.

My guide has limited out with 16 snapper and 60 seatrout for 4 days in a row.

Going with my uncle, his buddy, and my new wife.

Pictures to follow.

Awesome trip!

Plastics. Quarter ounce jigs with Aaron's BoomBoom shrimp. On the beach in 2-4 feet of water.

Hit the breakers. Game on.

Look up 4 horsemen tackle. Aaron owns the company

 

[ewc]

I'm on interstate headed home. I'll share pictures of tackle and lures. Jig heads and shrimp look to cool not to share.

If going to Louisiana, don't waste your time in the marsh. 12" of snow in January and weather in the teens killed everything but the reds. If you're after reds in the marsh you have to be able get in skinny water - 20" or less.

$54/lb for fillets never sounded so good. Thanks for sharing.
