TROUT CATCHING WEATHER CONDITIONS THIS MORNING!

We had the pleasure to guide long time regulars Leo Regan, Ron Lewis & Jim Donohue. The guys are from Baton Rouge, LA & fish with us several times every year. As a matter of fact Leo Regan has been fishing on my boat since I started guiding 18 years ago.

We left out of Delta Marina inEmpire, LA early this morning with the weather just perfect. The wind was light out the southeast. The tide was coming in from the near by Gulf of Mexico at a 1.6 ft. range. The water looked green and clear. The perfect recipe to smoke some Speckled Trout.

We fished the oyster reefs and broken islands on the west side of the Mississippi River.

Leo, Ron & Jim fished live shrimp under popping corks and I tight linedMatrix Shad Lemon Head soft plastic.

It was "FISH ON!" every cast most of the morning. At 10:00 am we had 100 beautiful Speckled Trout on ice in the YETI as we headed back to Delta Marina.

It was a beautiful morning and a beautiful catch once again.

BIG THANKS TO LEO, RON, & JIM! SEE YOU GUYS IN JUNE!

STELLAR JOB BY DECKHAND HEATHER KEEPING EVERYONE IN THE WATER & HOOKED UP!
