re: Hopedale fishing saturday
Posted by JRinNOLA on 11/7/25 at 6:47 am to LSUsaintsfanla
3 of us went Wednesday the 5th. Fished the marsh not too far from Hopedale marina. 8:30 - 2:30 Ended up with 28 keeper trout. Not that many throw backs. Caught on live shrimp and marker 54 shrimp. The fish are inside. You just have to pick your days to fish.

I use the ratchet straps but also add a 6” piece of metal pipe hanger strap wrapped around each side of the stand and run a deck screw through it into the tree. Also keeps the stand from moving around.

Lansky with 5 different grade of stones will make any knife razor sharp in 5 minutes.
White lake duck hunting
Posted by JRinNOLA on 10/26/25 at 8:03 am
Anyone have any experience duck hunting at White Lake ? I was invited to duck hunt there mid November. Any information appreciated.
I started rebuilding my reels myself. Look up specific reel on YouTube. It’s a lot easier than you would think. No special tools needed. I rebuilt all my spinning reels and 2 6500c3 bait casters. Just order some reel oil and grease on amazon.
When your tailgate is down camera doesn’t get you license plate and if you are towing a boat just take a minute to pull over in Leeville and cover or remove your license plate. I am not paying $21.00
I fished last Wednesday the 9th. Caught 11 keepers trout and 100 throw backs mostly on artificial in the marsh very close to the boat launch. They are inside now.
Inshore saltwater bait casting reel recommendation
Posted by JRinNOLA on 10/5/25 at 12:54 pm
I have always fished for redfish and trout with a spinning reel, but it seems a lot of people are using bait casters these days. What is a good all-around bait caster for saltwater fishing?
Take a boy hunting today and you won’t be hunting the streets for him tomorrow
In mid June I was surf fishing on Elmer’s Island with my nephew. He fished artificial and I had live shrimp. I caught a limit of keepers and he couldn’t catch a fish. He was switching baits a lot but didn’t catch a thing until he switched to live shrimp.
Live bait or artificial ? Louisiana inshore saltwater
Posted by JRinNOLA on 9/21/25 at 9:41 am
I have always been a live bait fisherman but getting tired of paying .50 cents a piece for shrimp. I think it’s time to switch to artificial. How many of you only fish artificial and what are some of your go to baits that work ?
re: Budget Deer Scope

Tasco scopes. Been around for ever. Very inexpensive and work fine. I paid less than $100.00 for the 3-9 x 40 on my Remington 270. Works great.
Pecan wood fer the smoker
Posted by JRinNOLA on 9/2/25 at 7:34 am
I cut up a branch about 8 inches in diameter of pecan wood that fell from my pecan tree in a storm. Can I use all of it or just the heart wood for smoking ?
Marker 54 shrimp and shrimp let’s.
Posted by JRinNOLA on 7/24/25 at 7:05 pm
Can anyone give me some feedback on marker 54 shrimp and ? I recently bought some but haven’t tried them out yet. Any positive reports ?
re: Popping Corks
Posted by JRinNOLA on 7/16/25 at 7:13 am to LanierSpots
Sorry I am not paying $8 for a popping cork. The dollar ones that look the same work just as good. If I was buying just one maybe but I keep a lot of corks pre rigged with leaders and hooks in sandwich bags ready to swap out when the line starts getting frayed from catching fish.
I limited out on Friday the 11th. Live shrimp on Elmer’s island at first light. Bite was over by 8:00 am.
re: Earliest you have had to wake up to go hunting/fishing?
Posted by JRinNOLA on 7/13/25 at 7:56 am to freshtigerbait
I wake up at 2:45 leave Nola , get live shrimp at Bridgeside and start fishing at first light. Bite ends early in the summer. I just limited out on Elmer’s island surf fishing Friday. Bite stopped at 8:00
re: Anybody been scalloping in the big bend of FLa ye this year

I went to Cape San Blas last year. Can’t wait to go this summer. What fun.
The cooling system is the source of problems with jeeps.

I picked a bunch of chanterelle mushrooms. How does everyone like to cook them?
