Great day on the Louisiana Marsh despite the weather.

We had a great day on the water today despite the crummy conditions. I had good friends Cary Kresge and longtime friend David Olson who runs the Fly Shop of Miami in town for two days. We had scum sky all day but that didn’t stop us. We landed 12 redfish on fly along with 5 black drum and Cary finished the day off by landing a Donkey Kong 32 lb redfish. We had clean water and could still see the fish even though the sight fishingconditions wern’t perfect. A great way to end their first day on the water. Weather looks good for tomorrow so redfish beware!

The Louisiana Marsh was on fire today!

We had an incredible day on the water today in the Louisiana Marsh. Great weather and monster redfish and black drum roaming everywhere on the flats. We landed 7 redfish on fly today all over 25 pounds with the two biggest being 30 and 38 pounds and this doesn’t even include the numerous other black drum we caught. The fish were pouncing on the fly as soon as it hit the water and we were taking advantage of their aggresive behavior. These are the days that make the marsh shine and show that is a great fly fishing destination.

Cold weather redfishing report

Fly Water Expeditions has been getting out on the water the past few days after the extreme cold temperatures kept a lot of the redfish and blackdrum off of the flats. The water is starting to warm up a bit and the redfish have been coming back into the marsh and are on a feed. It looks like we will continue to get a warming trend which should get the water temps back into the mid 50’s turning the fishing on. The reds have been eating big crab flies and have been a ton of fun on the 9 wt rods. Tight Lines

Just got done filming with Mike Conner and SWA TV. We had some chilly weather here in New Orleans but still managed to catch a ton of red fish and a few big ones up to 28 pounds. The three Fishing TV show segments we filmed should start to air around the 2nd week of February on the Sportsmans channel and SUN Sports in Florida.

The water in the Louisiana marsh is super clean

The weather had given us a bad run for a few weeks but things are starting to stabalize. We are getting consitent shots at big redfish and black drum over 20 pounds every day. The water in the Louisiana marsh is super clean right now making it great for sight fishing. We have landed a bunch of fish in the 20-40 pound range over the past couple weeks and more redfish and drum are showing up in the marsh in between cold fronts. Tight lines!
