Had set my lines out on Old River. Fishing with around 250 hooks, using small crawfish as bait. Sofar as of this morning, I cought better then 300lbs. That was three runs and I will be picking up my lines later this afternoon.

One big mofo.






Todays fish.

Only reason to doing it. At my age, any day on the water is great. A lot of fun when you picking up some tree shakers.

Not the same. Just north of morganza.

Picked up my lines in the 20+mph wind. A bitch I tell you. Picked up about 50lbs more. The big cat for the weekend hit 30lbs even on the scale. All fish were sold other then what I cought this afternoon. That will go into the pot. Ended up with over 350lbs for the weekend.

Pretty good haul of fish. Imagine running them lines in this wind was a chore
