re: Hopedale fishing (MRGO)

We fished the Delacroix marsh with Sweetwater Friday and with Bayou Charters saturday. As Webfoot said, we lmited on reds saturday with a few trout and on Friday we had 2 reds 23 trout and a limit of black Drum. Word there then was that Black Bay, Stone Island etc has been extremely muddy. Beautiful water north of there in the marsh to be found. They have stopped going after trout very much.
Among what I picked up on : little Lake, Four Horse, Pencil Canal areas . Corks and skrimps close to islands on reds and skrimps on Carolina rigs in 18' water for drum. and the occasional Red.
We found nice trout, some 2-3 lbs and little ones in a Bay that couldn't hold anymore crab traps, which was frustrating cuz every time we'd get a bite going the crabbers would blast by to, from or while checking traps. No courtesy among that bunch.
Friday, a couple of boats from Bayou ran 70 miles round trip to do little cuz of dirty water. Didn't get a report on the rocks.
As several have said earlier: If anyone is going to Breton, don't arse around anywhere else, Go straight there!
