I don't get to fish near as much as I would like. Last fall was the last time I fished golden meadow. I woke at 3am, loaded 3 kayaks (Jackson big tuna on top of truck cab and two in the bed. Left New Iberia at 4am, drove to Galliano launched and paddling by 630, fished till noon, loaded all up again headed to leeville re-launched and fished hard till sundown (7pm or so). Loaded up and drove back to NI. After paddling and fishing all day on the very warm day, only one redfish and one trout to show, that was a tough trip back home. My body was aching all over, I think I may have had a bit of heat stress. I think I was in pretty bad shape until we stopped in Galliano and got a cold drink and something to eat. On the trip home, I was seriously thinking of giving up on kayak fishing....till I woke up the next morning and remembered that one nice red I caught. But seriously, my fat 51 year old body can't hardly take an 18-19 hour day anymore. But, I'm planning on doing it again next saturday!!! HERE'S TO TIGHT LINES FELLAS!!!!
