1-23-10 Reds Big Lake
 

Went out on the water this morning and caught a 2-man limit of reds. All fish were perfect eaters... between 16''-20'' We left at 9:00 a.m. because the wind was howling out of the South. I felt we did good enough and trout would be impossible to find. All fish were caught on white swimming mullet while working the east bank out of the wind. They started off small (12 inches) and then we hit a school of them where we mopped up.

nice job... my neighbors are still out there.... im at work... i dont know why im laughing.... its that psycho/mad/pissed off/wishin i was fishin laugh...

I hear ya Jordan... that is how I felt yesterday stuck at work when the weather was better and "w", adamfence were catching reds.

Thats a pretty picture.
fire up the pit!!!

Nice eaters.....

Got fish slime on that new Hydra-sport! Good catch shellman.

great catch..... we went today caught 7, man that wind was bad

Nice feeeesh. Good eatin'

And I'm stuck at work. Nice catch Fat Man told me no one around there were catching and ya'll were hauling em in.

big nasty did jsmoke hook you up with a coozie?

Scat- we were on them! Other boats were basically spectaters while we were there.

Adamfence- No coozie from jsmoke... haven't talked to him in a long while.

Good catch! Those reds are so thick in big lake the only way not to catch them is to stay home. We went this afternoon and got hammered by the wind.

Evans- How did your boat handle that kind of wave action? I was able to run 30 mph comfortably going there against the wind... but got pounded and wet on way back with the wind.

3ft waves it was pretty rough! But 3 limits of reds and I guess it was worth it.

We ran about 30 too we took 2 waves over the front of the boat on the way back around 3pm it was pretty bad. my cousin was half wet in the front and half dry in the back.:*****:

what kind of boat do you have evans

18ft kenner Vision with 125 merc

Yeah... I wish I could have had more people in the boat. More people= More reds

man it must have been real bad on that end of the lake I was on the north end by heberts it was pretty bad but not getting wet bad.... I was traveling with the wind to though

yea ,u was in a big we were in a small boat started to go out further in the lake and i said the hell with that but we did end up with 6 trout and 5 redfish, nothing like yesterday though, we was catching fish on every cast.

6 trout......man i couldn't buy a trout bite

6 trout that sounds good

I talked with two guys from Texas at the launch today. They rode all the way from the other side of Houston. I asked them why they drove so far... they said because they can't catch the quality and numbers of fish that they can in Calcasieu. They showed up in a 24 foot shallow/flats hull. Anyone seen that one out there today?

yea,thanks to you, i caught them in one of your holes

That Texas boat is always at the weirs catching Redfish. Big console, no sides.

I saw a boat with two guys in it that sat real low in the water, not sure the name on boat. They were on the east bank north of the camps at hebert's in those cove's.

Yep, looks like a fiberglass barge with big console and a few ice chests on it.
The fishermen always have waders on.

Damn son you're on fire. Good job! I'm going waste my time, I mean try my luck again next week.

you can't give up blackmamba you gonna get on some fish, just a matter of time.
