Fly Fishing for days
 

Outcast and I made a Friday, Saturday run down to Reggio and Delacroix. We pre-fished for the Saltwater series next weekend and had a little fun while doing it. We saw well over a hundred fish in the two days and were able to land double digits. Today we got an added bonus of having Paul Myers on the boat with us. Paul was able to land his first red on the fly this morning and we couldn't have been happier. All in all a great weekend with new and old friends. Paul want to say it was great meeting you and once I get done with this tournament you are coming back to this side for more.

Very nice,congrats Paul! I need to get another bug whip

Hell yeah Lucas!! Sorry to cut u short this morning I was busy.... Slangin topwater!!

I can't repeat what I called you this morning via text but it still applies. ;)

:p

nice catch!

Nice Red Paul.

I got 2 fly rods.........just sitting in the shop. I use to use them fairly often for catching bream. A nice Red would be a blast.

if you used those fly rods for bream, they just might be a blast and splinters!

One for sure..... it is a 60+ year old Bambo rod.

Other rod I think could handle a nice Red. Not sure what weight rod it is.

Yeah man, had a blast! It was great meeting Paul and he even brought us some cool Salty Cajun schwag! Thanks again for the shirt and towel.
We'll have to do it again soon!
Heres a few more pics

Those pictures sure look like some good spots to catch some reds.

Just talked to Captain Rocky, looks like I am headed back to Reggio in the morning. Three days of fly fishing in a row, what's a man to do? I know, enjoy it!

Livin' the dream....awesome pics,never caught reds in grass like that before.

Dang bro! His trip get cancelled?

Yeah

very nice.looks like some beautiful spots. congrats on the red Paul!!

Sweet. Good looking pictures!!!!!

A few more pics, these are from today! Had one of the best days of fishing that I can remember having. Saw at least 10 different schools of fish tailing and well over 100 fish we put eyes on. Hooked 30+ and landed 20+ on the fly.

Awesome Lucas! Thats some pretty fish

You are officially the Redfish King.. Nice catch and beautiful fish

Nice catch man.
Can't wait to get back out there friday

I got to learn how to work a fly rod that looks like fun! Beautiful fish man!

you lost your spot bro, stick with the offshore!:work::D:D

Ryan, is that the spot I took? ;)

Take me before the baby is born. I got 3 weeks!! hahaha

Lucas/Ryan, Y'all are the best!!! :) I can't even begin to express how much fun I had yesterday. I have been on the water fishing several times with different people but you two take the cake. The work you two put in just so I could catch my first red on a flie was way more than I ever expected. Ryan, I will never forget the red that hit your flie right at the boat and then took off screaming through all that grass. I think I was more excited than you were. The speed that fish had once it felt the hook was unbelievable. Lucas, you make this fly fishing stuff look way easier than it really is. You and Ryan are like an artist, the fly rod is your brush and the marsh is your canvas.

I want to take this time to thank both of you for taking your time so close to a tourney to allow me to get that first red on a flie. I learned a lot from both of you. If I can ever do anything to repay the debt that I feel I owe, DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK.

Fellow SaltyCajuns these two guys are the kind of people we need to emulate! The world would be a much better place if we did/could.

Wow, that makes me seem like a much better person than I really am! Thanks Paul for the kind words. I get more thrill out of seeing people do what I love as much as I do.

Week after next Friday or Sunday? I'll take a man on one of his last trips for a while. Oh and by the way congratulations!

Wait a minute are you sure we are talking about the same Lucas I know...

Yep, Maybe he just don't like you. :rasberry: :funny: :rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl:mean but funny:rotfl::rotfl:

He is the one that consistently breaks my boat... so maybe it's the other way around ;)

You got alot to learn young'n

"WOW":redface:

And tail gates? :rotfl:

Is there a fishing rod story in there somewhere?:eek:

Nope...that was from a monster 5 pound trout. :work:

I saw him today... He said you wanna hook up the boat to my new tundra and put down the tailgate down... I almost fell out

I was thinking the same thing!!

His Billystix broke the tailgate when he slamed it in there!!!:eek:

LOL!!!

That could be his new slogan......."Billystix, tougher than a tailgate"

More like Billystix perch jerker...anything else pulls too hard!

That's where I was going! lol

Hahaha

Man, y'all got crazy after I went to bed.

Haha. I almost got banned for commenting on those Billy stix

Ask Jordan how they "fair" in tailgates.

Err I mean 14 inch "7-8 pound easy" bass

Starting stuff early this morning?!?!

What else is he good for? :D

Its not starting stuff if it's only the truth
