It’s nothing like it used to be, but is still good for the crappie and catfish.
Bass fishing is abysmal

I know you said cheap but when it comes to rain gear, you are better to buy once and cry once.

I bought a set of the top of the line Simms rain gear about 8 years ago and I’ve never gotten wet.

I’ve fished in tournaments for 8 hours in a constant downpour and stay completely dry

Not an expert, just common sense!

We didn’t draw a tag but have someone that did coming to hunt tomorrow.

This for sure, I would call sheriffs department and let them run serial #s.

Last thing you want to do is be toting around a stolen firearm or a firearm that’s been used to commit murder.

If serial #s check out, sell em

We shoot age also, 5 year old minimum.

A 3.5 year old buck is like a teenager. If he was big at 3.5 then he could have been huge at 5.5

We have way to many doe as well, we kil 25 to 30 a year on DMAP and could kill twice that many.
I promise you they check em

This is the way,
Louisiana needs to drop bucks down to 2 per year, with only one being able to be shot with a rifle.

Shorten the rifle season some and let more bucks survive. This will in turn create bigger bucks.

It’s pretty simple but there is this culture that is ingrained into people that they must shoot every buck they see.

I’ve been 3 times on the guided Disney trips.

It all depends on which guide you get.

The first time we fished for 4 hours and absolutely smashed them. Like caught 40 to 50 bass and a bunch in the 3 to 5# range.

The second trip was also a 4 hr trip.
We only caught 5 fish the whole trip. It was terrible.

The 3rd trip was a 2hr trip. It was decent but not great. We caught 7 to 8 fish with the biggest being around 4#

I held off, I have it all disced up and ready.

Been busy with kids football and baseball. Started to plant some today but decided to wait another week.

How many folks have planted?

I’ve got it all disced up, just waiting for a for sure rain.
