I went with a friend today and didn't have to take off work or pay gas, thankfully. Also, had tossed around the idea the past few days and was gonna go. Lil Fla happened to be where my friends camp was, so that's where we fished. I was fine not catching a thing and enjoying the morning.

But, I can't see how it was green the day before and 7 hours of a max 8mph south wind could have dirtied a few days of north wind to several miles out. I can understand a stained clarity, but less than an inch of visibility?

We all know you want people out of big lake. Why not post the same report and claim prien or lake Charles? A lot of people could have saved a lot of time and money, might have caught a fish too.

The beach is only fishable a couple times a year, and when people have a chance to fish ways they usually don't get to, and read a "report" to boot, they're gonna take that chance.


Call them potlickers or pilgrims, but a lot of people enjoy going to the beach but usually can't justify the time off or money for gas. But when good family weather on top of "good" fishing is reported, they won't hesitate. This is sportsman's paradise.



Let this be a lesson to newcomers.
