Another day on the water and it was one you dream about! Although it didn't
appear that way from my perspective at 6:00 am this morning as I lay hunched
over the top of my engine twisting and prying out a derelict crab trap entangled in
my prop. After a few choice words to myself and 30 minutes later we were off to
the races. On board the Skeeter today was Mr. Larry Jones and his blind date,
Ms. Claire. I had big shoes to fill, but I promised Larry they would have a most
enjoyable day. Traveling through bayous in the marsh showed signs of low tide
and drains were nearly devoid of water. I glanced at the sonar and noted a water
temperature of 46.6. I knew the trout were gonna be difficult to convince them
to eat, however, my plan started to develop as I neared the shallow ponds of the
upper Dularge marsh. Last night I stopped at Capt. Tommy's house and was
introduced to the new High Life Tackle Anchovy colors - Green Onion, Natural
Minnow, Yellowmouth Gold, Coco Pepper, and Blue and Gold. I had each different
one tied on and armed with a jighead. First stop, first cast and BAM! Redfish. I
quickly changed to another color and 2 more came in back to back. Claire and
Larry were hammering on the reds one after the other. Green Onion caught the
most but all of the other colors produced fish. This new soft plastic has an
ultra realistic action with a flat back that runs true! No flip flopping over!
We finished our limit of 15 early and tagged and released over 20 reds! Crazy
action in Bayou Dularge, Louisiana!
