Great Day Catching Speckled Trout

Day 2 with Frank McCreery and his family was a perfect way to wrap up their trip. The trout stayed hungry, keeping everyone busy throughout the morning. Before heading in, we decided to add a little more excitement by hooking into a couple of bull redfish. There’s nothing quite like hearing the drag scream after a morning of catching trout. It was great having Frank and his family back after all these years. Seeing returning guests leave with smiles, coolers full of fish, and new memories is one of the best parts of this job. Thank you again for making the trip from Virginia. I hope it won’t be long before we do it all again!

Day 1 with Frank McCreery and his family was one I had been looking forward to. Frank and his family traveled down from Virginia and hadn’t fished with me in several years. It’s always special when returning guests come back after a long break, and this trip picked up right where the last one left off. Once we figured out the pattern, everyone got in on steady action and caught some quality fish. Watching families reconnect over a great day on the water is one of the best parts of being a guide. Frank, thank you and your family for making the trip back to South Louisiana. It was a pleasure having y’all aboard again, and I hope it won’t be as long before the next visit!

Day 2 called for a different game plan, so we left the trout alone and went after drum. The change worked out perfectly. The drum were biting well, keeping the crew busy and providing plenty of action throughout the trip. These fish fight hard and make excellent table fare, making for another successful day on the water. It’s always fun to mix things up over a multi-day trip, and South Louisiana offers enough variety to keep every day a little different. Another great crew and another memorable day in the books!
