Another Sucessful Gainnie Lumber Trip

Day 2 was all about earning every fish. We focused exclusively on redfish, but they weren’t giving themselves up easily. It was one of those days where every move mattered. We covered water, made adjustments, stayed patient, and never gave up. That persistence paid off. By the final stretch of the trip, Steve and Nick had put together a full limit of redfish. Honestly, those are some of my favorite days as a guide. When you have a crew that’s willing to stay positive and keep fishing, it’s incredibly rewarding to see everything come together in the end. Steve and Nick, thanks again for another great couple of days. I appreciate your continued trust and can’t wait to do it again.

Day 1 was a special one. One of my longtime returning guests, Steve, was back for another trip, and this time he brought his son, Nick Bekeleski, along for his first experience fishing the Louisiana marsh. I always enjoy introducing someone new to what makes Sportsman’s Paradise so special, and Nick picked a great day to join us. The puppy drum were fired up, keeping us busy most of the morning, and we added a couple of nice redfish to round out the trip. Steve, thank you for the many years of support, friendship, and trust you’ve placed in me. Repeat customers like you mean more than you know, and it was a pleasure spending another day on the water with you and Nick. Looking forward to the next trip!

Day 2 was a great way to wrap up the trip. The crew picked up right where they left off, finding another excellent speckled trout bite and staying busy throughout the morning. Once we had a solid box of trout, we spent the rest of the trip chasing a few slot redfish to add even more excitement. Two days of steady action, quality fish, and a fantastic group made this trip one we’ll remember for a long time. We appreciate everyone for spending their time on the water with us and hope to see them back in South Louisiana again soon!
