September 30, 2004 -  My third and final day with Jerry, Larry and Jeremy Horseman proved to be much tougher than the last two days. The strong east wind prevented us from fishing the area we had fished the last two days.15 keeper trout out of 25 and 4 keeper reds. Even with this slow day they will be taking an ice chest of fillets back to Kansas City. Great three days of fishing guys. Capt.E.J

  

 

September 29, 2004 - Larry, Jerry and Jeremy out with me again today. We did not have the box of fish we had yesterday but today we did catch 30 or so trout to go with half a dozen nice red fish and 2 flounders. Back out with the same crew tomorrow. Capt. E.J.

 

September 28, 2004 -  Not very many trout today.  We boated only a dozen or so with only 2 being keepers. Today was gorilla redfish day as shown in the picture. One of those days when we have to many over 27 inches, but we still managed to fill the ice chest. Jerry, Larry and Jeremy are back with me tomorrow. Capt. E.J.

 

September 27, 2004 - Had the pleasure of fishing with James and Nancie Flynn from Lake Park, Pa. It was a great day to be on the water. Boated 50 or 60 trout, a few reds  2 flounder, 3  bass, 1 drum and the three of us fought a 30lb jack cravelle until we got tired and broke him off. Back out tomorrow, Capt. E.J.

 

September 26, 2004 - Had a fun gang today from Baton Rouge. Michael, Tori, and Eric caught a nice mess of reds, and a few trout. Conditions were tough today as the wind was blowing 15-20mph out of the East. Never could get Tori that ten pound red she was looking for. Next Time!

 

September 25, 2004 - .  Had 3 people out today. First thing this morning we went looking for speckled trout. We ran into a nice little school. Managed to catch about 40 keepers using sparkle beetles under a cork.

September 21, 2004 -  Had the same guys from yesterday, plus another buddy Robby. Another good trip today, but not as hot as yesterday. Caught a lot of variety today including, reds, trout, drum, sheep head, bass, and catfish. Today's trip was catch and release.

 

September 20, 2004 - After 7 days of canceled trips we are back on the water. Lafitte made out well, as the storm moved to the east towards Gulf Shores. The Reds seemed very hungry after the north wind pounded the area the previous week.. Kevin, Keith and Trey had no problem catching their limit, and more, of 6- 10 lbs. redfish, and a few trout. Caught most reds with shrimp, and spinner baits. We the trout caught on split tail beetles under a popping cork.

Lets hope that we are all still here and fishing next weekend

Saturday Evening - Had an interesting request in the afternoon, had a great group who wanted to view some of the great wildlife, but specifically, BIRDS! Made the run towards Grand Isle to some Islands that hold tons of Pelicans, Seagulls, Herons, and others. We managed to find all that we were looking for. The gang had a great time.

 

September 5, 2004 - Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were three great days of fishing. Catch and release all three days, I love it.

Saturday and Sunday we fished Carolina rigged with dead market shrimp. Out again on Tuesday if the weather holds.

September 2, 2004 - Been out of action the last few days, finally got me a new, more fuel efficient  motor. It runs like a champ, and will be back out as usual beginning in the morning.
