Yep, I don't even want to get the hook out of an alligator gar much less a shark. :lol:...

Thanks y'all! I like the idea of a cheap burner phone. I'll have to look into In Reach too. ...

Best cell service in the Marsh

Posted by catchyalater on 4/6/24 at 8:37 am
Hey y'all, title says it all. I'm on Verizon and I don't even get a signal at the Marina. I'm not looking to have full bars out in Bay Boudreaux, but something I can text with near the marina would be great. What provider do y'all use?...
Nice job! Been a long long time since I caught one like that. ...

re: Poling skiffs in Louisiana

I have an ankona cayenne, and when it's just me (I'm not a big dude) and I don't bring an ice chest, I can get through 4 inches. Now I have to be clear, I'm just saying I can get through it. I'm not saying it's easy or something I do routinely. But if I need to get through a flat with 4-6" of wa...

[quote]Why aren't these boats more popular in Louisiana?[/quote] How did I miss this thread? Anyway, I own one and I would say they aren't more popular in Louisiana because: - Polling here is not very easy, you find yourself dealing with the mud far too often. - They are far more expensive th...
I think about this a lot. I don't have 500k, but I do have a good bit of extra cash. Assuming tomorrow I got a windfall and got it to 500k, I would probably sell my current house to turn that 500k into 650k-700k. From there I'd buy a property with a stream running through it somewhere north of Co...

Kayak fishing in those areas is some of the best kayak fishing you can do. However, you are limited by your lack of range, so the kayak spots are all the kayak spots. Here are some of my old ones.

Coming in late, I have a tohatsu 60 and I've had it for 4 years now. I don't have anything to compare it with as it's my first boat, but here's my take. 1. The fuel pump is very weak. This made the break in period awful for me because it felt like the engine kept dying. In reality, with the wa...

re: Redfish spinoff

Posted by catchyalater on 3/12/24 at 1:04 pm
Anecdotally, what I've found is that yes, redfish numbers are pretty good. I caught ten just last weekend. Not just 10 but 10 that were all less than 22 inches. That's a GREAT sign. But that's just anecdotal. I have not seen or read any data from any official accredited source that would indic...

Yeah I mean this is not a hill I want to die on. If I'm being honest, the MS regulations are hard as heck to read. The link I shared says at the top "General Fishing Regulations & Requirements" and then "Fishing License (Saltwater & Freshwater)" so... I take that to mean those are the requiremen...

[quote]Pogie fishing puts a lot of Louisiana people to work.[/quote] What Pogie fishing does in terms of employment and revenue to the state is nothing compared to recreational fishing.

[quote]Not true[/quote] No, it's true. Other states allow bow fishing, but none allow bow fishing of game fish which is what we're talking about - redfish. [link=(https://www.mdwfp.com/law-enforcement/fishing-rules-regs/)]Mississippi:[/link] "Game fish may be taken only by hook and line with o...
