Hebert's Marina
 

Is Hebert's Marina still open? Anybody have a phone number for them?

Thanks,

Redmann

Yes. It is still open. Limited amounts of live shrimp available from about 5am till 9am. NO Fuel on site.

5 dollar launch fee

They bait guy has a number maybe some can post it

Don't go down there assuming he will have live shrimp because he don't go out every night

He has another job also so he can only go shrimp for bait when he is available to do so

Thanks for heads up. Definitely need number.

Bait
 

PHONE. 337-764-6252. Mike Leblanc. Bait information line.

Boat will work tonight 7/12/16. New aeration system installed to keep the croakers alive. Catches have been getting better.

As of a couple weeks ago.........................

The man that road around in the electric cart and collected the launch money..... no longer does that.

The people that run the food "trailer" are now in charge of the boat launch.

That would be a crazy arse black woman

Really crazy

Did someone say CROAKERS! :rotfl:

Talked with MIke the shrimp guy earlier in the year and he a top notch guy. had some boat issues and upgrades that put him down but he kept me on the phone for a solid 30 minutes talking about his plans for bait and such. competition is always good on the lake. If we could only get fuel on at least 2 spots on the lake that would be just SUPER!!!!

There needs to be an iniative to revamp Heberts Marina to include fuel, ice, small C-store.

And fill up all da potholes

I got the fuel and equipment to set up. Tried contacting the people with Hebert's but can't get a call back.

Give me 15 more years and this is my retirement plan...


Make Hebert's Great Again !!!!


Food, Beer, Bait, fish cleaning , Breakfast , Ice, Snowcones, Ice Cream, live launch entertainment on Saturdays (set up some bleachers)

No mention of fillin up da pot holes.

Damnn.. Da got Potholes??? LOL

When they get large enough we are going to rope them off and fill with water and make a pond for kids to fish out of :D

it is great if you like fine dining- lovely succulent fresh greasy tacos and only the finest wings dripping in spicy ketchup au jus served in the full splendor of the circuslike atmosphere of the "108 degrees in the shade " Parkin lot "

AND DON T FORGET TO BRING THE KIDS FOR THE PETTING ZOO- A FILTY FLEA BAG OF A MANGEY DOG -HALF DEAD- LURKING...AND FRED IS GONE...MAYBE LIKE THE SONG "FRED IS DEAD" I DON T KNOW- BUT YOU RARELY SAW HIM WITHOUT A CIG HANGING OUTTA HIS MOUT IN HIS CART.

I want to try fishing croakers

"W"

We gonna team up and make it happen like it used to be! Investors are waiting!
It's a "Goldmine"!

Pot holes are not bad like they were a couple years ago. They were filled in back then. Don't have worry about getting stuck in one now.... they will just bounce your boat a little now.

"W"...... In you "master plan" please fix up the bulk heads so bolts are not sticking out where boats are tied up while launching.

How can we get the launched dredged at a reasonable cost ?

I am Michael LeBlanc from Hebert's Bait. We are sold out so fast on Saturday, that I have decided to add more capacity to the boat ASAP. I had plans to do it in the future with some new fiberglass boxes in the front of the boat, but I can't wait to find the time to do that now. Last night we added about 25 percent more capacity by improvising by converting our main ice box to a live well. I have plans to add another 25 percent capacity within 2 weeks. We brought about 40 quarts to the marina last night. My goal before next year is to be able to bring 60 plus quarts when we go out. I am also going to add 4 more holding tanks at the marina this year. My goal is to never run out. We are possibly adding live cocahoe minnows in the coming weeks. We have recently had good success with keeping croakers alive, but we have caught very few on the last 2 trips. They are hit and miss. We go out in the boat anywhere from 3-5 nights per week depending on our inventory. One thing that I want people to realize is that shrimping is very tide dependent. When we can catch a falling tide at night with a decent range, such as around the new and full moons, we tend to do much better than when we shrimp during weaker tides between the moons. Running a bait business is not as easy as it seems, I have run a huge debt getting this set up between the marina and the boat. I will probably never make that back, but I am enjoying catching and providing this bait for you all. I intend to keep on improving things until it becomes easy and almost automatic and something that you all can depend on consistently. It is truly exhausting, but when I'm finished I know it will be all worth it. Please feel free to call me anytime if you have any questions or if you need bait after hours, I live 10 minutes away and will try my best to accommodate you. The number is (337) 764-6252. I will try to keep the message current, especially if we are having any problems or are running low on inventory. Thank you for your support,

Thanks for the info. Sounds like you're on the ball. Best of luck to the business.

I own a construction company, and we are on a large project for the next few weeks. As soon as we can, we are going to address the bolts sticking out on the building side. I have a few ideas. If you all notice any other items, please let me know. The potholes are really not a problem any more unless I'm missing something. I intend to stay on top of that. As far as a store, downstairs, I am looking into that, but I don't believe that Cameron Parish will allow that at the current elevation. I will look at other options as time goes on later this year. No promises yet. I don't own the property, so I will have to clear any improvements including fuel with the owner. Again, no promises yet, but all of this is in the back of my mind. I am going to get the bait situation right first. All of this takes time and more importantly money, which is always in short supply for most of us. Thanks for your support!

Thanks to all. Competition is a great thing on the lake and east side has been out of it for awhile. I doi like cakcasueu point landing but there are times I rather launch at Hebert's.

Good job Mike!

As of last night we had between 60 and 70 quarts of live shrimp available. It seems like we are getting better at keeping them alive on the boat and at the Marina. Call the (337) 764-6252 if you need anything after hours. Thanks!
