opening day is looking to be in the mid 40s now. Things could change, 2 weeks is a lot of time. ponds look amazing, gotta have faith

sounds like you need to look into getting a duck lease. And a camp out in the marsh, time stops out there

Can anyone give me some kind of explanation to this? On my lease in Dularge we have phenomenal big duck seasons (all we shoot is gray ducks and greenwings but i'll take whatever I can get) but as far as teal season we never have jack sh$t, while southwest LA seems to always be loaded down with birds this time of year, it seems like the only place those blue rockets like down this-a-way is Venice. Does anyone have any thoughts as to why those birds just don't come to us in September? Marsh looks great, weather is still too hot, but rode the entire area saturday and may have seen 40-50 birds. not enough to even think about hunting, and thats every year

I just got this Minn Kota Copilot for my boat and after getting some work done to it, I mounted it on the boat and it worked fine last weekend down in Fourchon. Had no issues and was very impressed with it. Went down to the camp in Dularge this weekend to do a little fishing. Got to the first spot, plugged it in and heard the normal "BEEP" it always gives then started to use the remote and everything was fine until I lowered it into the water and it worked for a few seconds then just quit on me. I messed with the trolling motor as much as I could on the water and nothing was happening it just would not work. Pushed the "test" button on the trolling motor and it showed full battery. It was working fine and then all of a sudden nothing.... no beeps no nothing.... Has anyone ever had this issue before?? I am hoping it is just a dead remote battery because all of my connections seem to be fine. any help is greatly appreciated because it put a huge hamper on the fishing trip.... can't do much sight fishing without a trolling motor

Was down in Fourchon this past weekend and with the weather so calm we decided to hit the first rigs off of the beach for some mangroves. In 2 days we landed 20 nice ones, but probably broke off three times that many. Also we would get them going and then they would go up to the live croaker, mullet, pogy, or whatever and just look at it and turn away. We were only in 50 feet of water and being that all I've got is a 22 foot Bay Boat I don't wanna go out any further than that, but the mangrove thing would be fun to do a few times a year, anyone got any tips on how to catch limits of these things? Every time I have done it, we are happy with 10 or so a morning

So according to the forecasts, its showing weather to be in the 50s for the next couple of days... first time I've ever witnessed this is May, but wonder if that is gunna affect those trout that had already moved offshore? caught 95 smaller ones, but they were keepers at the rigs south of Cocodrie last Saturday. I thought it was about to blow up over the next few weeks, but this weather has me thinking. Anyone know what a cold spell this late does to the trout that have already moved to the islands and rigs?

how did you do yesterday afternoon? 1.7 foot tide saturday after its been slack all week.... 5 mph north winds, setting up perfect

Hey guys I've got a camp in the middle of the marsh that is essentially a metal shack kinda like a quanza hut on posts 10 feet off of the water. We noticed how unbearable it is to be in the camp during the summer when it is so hot even with two air conditioning units and in the winter when it is very cold it is impossible to keep the heat in from a small heater. We sprayed foam insulation all over the metal walls and thankfully the camp is only about 20 feet long and 15 or so feet wide but we came up short on our spraying. There is probably about a 5th of the metal wall on the camp that needs to be finished sprayed. We also walled in the front and back walls with the pink roll up insulation and covered with plywood. We have noticed a huge difference in keeping the cold air and warm air inside from the insulation but still when the sun comes out, it is noticeable that the remaining metal walls warm up the inside of the camp a good bit. I was wandering if you guys knew of a cheaper alternative to finishing the spray insulation other than spending another 500$-600$ on another purchase of spray insulation because we just don't need that much more. We would probably only us a 1/5th of that purchase to finish the camp. If you guys know of anything else we could do or find a smaller amount of spray foam insulation please let me know
