Windy Red Fish!!

The wind has been crushing us for the past few weeks, that has pushed a ton of water back into the marsh and the red fish have followed. Pretty cool time to fish as the reds are started to crush poppers on top!! Enjoy!!

Spring Time!!!

Weather is starting to warm, flats are heating up and the fish are starting to become very aggressive….

Early March, top water bite picks up, BIG fish still in!!!

With water temps rising, the fish are starting to get more aggressive. The mullet are moving back i and the monster reds are keying in on them….

Big ‘N”

I love this shot from yesterday….overcast and plenty of big fish in the boat.

Just shy of a 20# tippet world Record

Had another killer day, tons of big fish, multiple double headers on 20+ lb fish, and one that came just shy of the current 20# tippet record which is 41.10 lbs.

February Monsters!!!!

The fishing continues to be great when the weather lets us out. Tons of big fish still in the marsh, lets hope the weather and cold fronts stay away…..

Sight fishing Reds with Light Tackle Spin Gear

Went out yesterday with some pretty good spin casters. We sight fished some really nice reds in the 10-15 pound range. The reds were pushing bait down the shorelines making them an easy yet fun target on  spin gear. Its unbelievable the amount of fish and bait we are seeing in the marsh right now. Tight Lines!

Hopefully this was the last cold front of the year!

We had another front come through this past week which brought strong winds and some pretty nasty weather. This didn’t stop the redfish from getting on the flats and crawling around looking for food. The fish are starting to go into their spring pattern and gorging on the small mullet that are all over the marsh. Bait Fish flies have been working really good and is super exciting to watch a big redfish come behind a 4 inch mullet fly and come out of the water to eat it. Tight lines!

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!

Shallow Water Angler TV in Louisiana

Louisiana Fishing is starting to go off even though we are getting our coldest weather of the year. I’m shooting a few segments for Shallow Water Angler TV the next three days. Looks like the weather is gonna be good, we hope to get some great footage of this incredible fishery. I still have some dates open if you would like to get on some nice redfish, trout and black drum.
