For the 4th day in a row we had the Oliver family on the boat. Today was a day dedicated to red fishing and it proved very productive early this morning with several reds in the box before 10AM. But with the rising tide and the effects of the full moon the bite slowed by mid morning. We were still able to put together a nice box of South Louisiana fish that will find its way to Colorado freezers. Both days we have fished late because we needed to, unlike others advertised here we are a full time guide service, we will not cut your trip short because we have yards to cut or maintenance contracts on seasonal camps to maintain. Special thanks to Nauti or Knot charters for handling the offshore part of this, week long venture since I was out of the offshore game from a recent surgery.

The Speckled Trout have really shown up and are in high gear. We have everything from easy numbers of smaller fish to some of the trophy fish when we can get to the beach areas to look for them. Yesterday was one of those trips where they did not care about numbers but wanted larger fish. Check out this 5.6 pound lunker of a trout caught bby this young 76 year old Colorado native who spent a few days with us.

Blake manned the inshore boat today. Unlike the last week where we had low water and packs of redfish cruising the mud flats. Blake found today a south wind with higher water, thus had the reds scattered back into the marsh but the change turned the trout on. Blake found trout on plastic schooled around spots that you would not expect to catch fish until next month. There were plenty of undersized fish mixed in with boat riders that came home with us today. There was great company on the boat as this Indiana couple sought warmer temps and good fishing and that is what they found in South Louisiana. With the warmest winter we have had in years, it looks like it is going to be a wonderful trout year. Come see us.
