REDFISH WERE THE NAME OF THE GAME THIS PAST WEEK

We caught very few trout this past week due to lots of fresh water in the system and a muddy system due to strong south wind. There no shortage of solid redfish and a few flounder on the south end of the lake. Some found redfish behind the weirs early in the week and in the marshes later on. Best bait when available was live shrimp but Hackberry Hustlers tipped with a little dead shrimp worked well also. Most flounder were caught on out-going tide bouncing shrimp and Berkley gulp around the marsh bank points.

EARLY TEAL SEASON IS SEPTEMBER 14^TH TO SEPTEMBER 29^TH

Our new duck hunting marsh proved to be the very best in southwest Louisiana last year and it’s looking even better this year. Early teal season should be fantastic so book you trip now. September is one of the best fishing months here on Lake Calcasieu so take time to book our famous BLAST & CAST and have twice the fun. What could be better than blasting away at fast flying teal in the morning and casting away at big lake trout and redfish in the afternoon.

My thought – I’ve learned…. That everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you’re climbing it.

Have a great week and remember you are living in the greatest country in the world
