No. Gail’s was the cinder block building right on the highway (Ida swept completely away). Terry’s place is just before where Gail’s was, set futher back. There’s signage.

Thanks for the info. I haven’t been down there since right before the Ida. Crazy to think Gails is gone. That was always my spot to get bait.

I thought I saw a vid of a guy fishing Fourchon yesterday. He seemed to be filming right near the launch. I'll see if I can find it.

I sent the guy a message. I'll post back if he answers.

Bridgeside, Wakeside, Hurricane Hole, or possibly Morans.

Right next to where it was, set back a little. Terry had to rebuild from the slab up after Ida.
He’s back up and running.
Not sure what all live bait he has, I just needed shrimp last Wednesday.
If you can, drop by Terry is a good guy..

Public launch is open. We launched in early April and it was fine.

I'm a little worried I might hit a whole fricking camp or something on the way out. I'll probably go one day next week to see if the mangroves are hungry.

The Leeville public launch under toll bridge is not open. Went last weekend. All barricaded.

Terry has started carrying all the usual frozen baits. Pogeys, Sardines, etc. and as said above, the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

We use the one at the old Bobby Lynn’s on the bayou side right before getting into Leeville. I think there’s a Welcome to Leeville wooden sign.
