re: 1st Annual OB Kayak Fishing Trip - Delacroix - Sweetwater Marina - May 31

From what I can tell redfish will hit anything. I've only targeted them specifically a handful of times but we would catch them pretty often bass fishing further south. I've had them hit all sorts of shite. Used to get them a lot when punching grass, spinnerbaits obviously, swim baits around the grass.

It didn't work last weekend. but it should.
I still had enough in the limited stuff I brought to catch a few though. Hardest thing to me about catching redfish is keeping it interesting. I try to hit different spots every time I go, and sometimes that involves a paddle that hardly seems worth it. But it's fun to explore new places.

One thing I love about Delacroix is there are so many different underwater environments to fish. We hit this one spot that looked like it was a side river off the amazon. Super clear, 8 foot channel. You could see the redfish and some sheepshead swimming through, a short paddle away was a 8" deep pond with redfish tailing all over it. I just love it. Not saying it's the only place like that in Louisiana, it's just my little slice of heaven. I still have my skunkless streak going there. Despite a few times saying, well today may be the day that Delacroix disappoints, we always end up catching.

That's the plan. As far as sleeping, I'm going to play it by ear.

Just get in the cabin with me and DLauw, they sleep 4. All 3 of us will be there Friday afternoon.

Bump for TulaneUVA

I'm officially off work for this trip, but not getting a cabin. Anybody still got an open bunk?

The wife has to work.

I'm staying Fri nite in Polar Pop's cabin. Not staying sat nite. Sure there will be a spot for u to sleep somewhere...think we have at least 1 more reserved

Score.

4 bunks, but BayouBrawl also has a cabin booked and I think he can hold 3 more people.
