1/2 Louisiana fish fry & 1/2 Louisiana shrimp fry

I will look into this further.

Wick, can you link your email momentarily?

Yeah, that was the route I intended on taking.

Southwest has issued a waiver for flights into New Orleans between today and Thursday.

It definitely depends on the type of fishing you are wanting to do/try. I fish pretty much every weekend year-round (weather permitting). I primarily fish saltwater in SELA. Over the last year I have gotten away from fishing live bait and fish artificial exclusively. Types of baits depend on the time of year/where I am fishing.

For instance, in the summer I predominantly target slot redfish on a fly rod (sight fishing). Crab flies, small shrimp or bait fish patterns. Poppers when targeting jacks.

When fall fishing I really enjoy the speck transition from outside to the inside. I tend to fish 3-5ft of water with double rigged matrix under a cork. Or topwater plugs.

Winter fishing I am usually throwing 1/4, 3/8 or 1/2 oz jig heads with Matrix Shad for specs. Weight depends on water temp as the fish tend to be deeper as it gets colder (not so much the case this year). We also start fishing big bulls on the fly rod at this time. Generally anything with lead eyes that can sink quickly.

I don't spend too much time worrying about rod and reels. But right now I'm using curados and falcon rods. (Academy is generous with their return policy if I break anything).

I also enjoy throwing suspended crank baits or topwater plugs when I feel the conditions suit them. It's all preference in my opinion but those are just some of the things that tend to work for me.

For websites or information, I generally believe that going and trying different areas and techniques is ultimately what makes you a better fisherman. I understand not everyone has the capabilities to fish as often as I do but having a good friend who does fish more than you always seems to help.

Yeah I went through and didn't see anything. I've narrowed it down to Three Forks, a camping area where 3 trout rivers converge. Relatively close to the Appalachian Trail. Should be an awesome trip. I've seen a bunch of your pictures from NY. My brother lives outside of Summit, NJ. They make a few suicide runs upstate NY to catch big browns and steelheads. Hopefully I'll make it up there soon.

Looking to make a DIY trip to North Georgia (Blue Ridge area) in late October. I've never done any trout fishing mainly redfish and various other species that call our SELA marshes home. If any of y'all could help make my trip planning a little easier it'd be much appreciated. Trying to decide between the Toccoa River and Noontootla Creek. It'll be the GF and I camping/fly fishing for a few days.

P.s. Here are some pics to help you get through Tuesday.

Yeah, I feel like we still need another episode to resolve this episode. Which is how the show has always been.

I'm in Kenner as well. I have a 17ft flat boat. Need people to ride with me. Let me know if yall need help.
