Good customer Dave Wilson and son Andy from Texas were back with me on the Blue Wave Boats. We found clean water at every stop and picked away at a few fish at each stop. Our last stop was most productive. Shrimp Creole Matrix Shad under Four Horsemen Tackle corks accounted for all of our fish. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Made a scouting trip before the temps dropped with my buddies Capt Lb and Capt Hook. We found the specks stacked up and hungry for our Green Hornet Matrix Shad. Easy limits and fun time with friends. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Danny Lirette was back again with wife, and friends from Colorado on the 26 Blue Wave Boats. We started out fishing for reds and heads. We had a good run of reds, but they were all 15.5 inches. Put some heads in the box, all on fresh bait shrimp on a jig head. We made one stop for trout and found a very slow bite. We put 12 keepers in the box and released a few undersized fish. The wind picked up to 20 mph and my crew called it a day. Always a good time with Danny and crew, thanks for the continued business over all the years. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Day three with Rick Osterman on the 26 Blue Wave Boats. Our morning started off with a bang putting four reds in the box on the first four cast, then it slowed. We caught about 12 reds at our first stop but only 6 kept. Made a move and got on another quick run of reds but they were all 15 inches. The heads started coming in then quit. Made another move and picked up some more heads and a couple more rat reds. Rick wanted to try to catch some bulls, so we headed to the pass and dropped some crabs. First drop he had a bite that let go, second drop and bull drum. No other bites after that so we switched back to trying to finish our red limit. No luck as every red seems to be coming out the same mold. Tons of 14-15 inch reds everywhere you go. Great three days with Rick again this year and looks forward to his return next year. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Day two with Rick Osterman from Iowa on the big 26ft Blue Wave Boats was incredible. We had a easy limit of reds, and when the tide switched coming in the heads turned on. Rick experienced the best sheep bite ever, he got on a roll catching them every-cast. Fresh bait shrimp on a jig head tight lined on the bottom did the trick on all our fish. Thanks Rick, it was a blast. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Rick Osterman from Iowa is back with me for a few days. Day 1 started out with brutal conditions. 30 mph winds, post front, no water and cold!! We stuck it out grinding and ended up two reds short of our limit and added some bay snapper. Ended up being a fun productive day despite the horrible conditions thrown at us. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Dr Mike Tuite was back onboard the big 26 Blue Wave Boats today. They put their two man limit of reds on ice and released another 10 undersized reds. Made a move and hit a little pile of bay snapper. We fished two areas for trout only finding two green trout and one lonely speck. Always a fun time, thanks again. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Eric Edwards and crew from Houston joined me today on the big 26 Blue Wave Boats, it was reds and heads again. The keeper reds didnât show up in the honey hole today. My crew caught 25 - 30 reds, but most were 15 1/4 inches. The heads were thick as can be and my crew put the hurt on them. Fun times with lots of laughs and bent rods. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Day 2 with Dr Randy Davis and sons was just as good or better then day 1. The reds and heads were stacked up and the guys came out swinging early. They filled up the Belly of the Beast, 26 ft Blue Wave Boats. Fresh bait shrimp on the bottom was key today. Great two days with these guys! Thanks for the continued business over the last 10 yrs Dr Randy. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Dr Randy Davis was back with me today with his sons. The guys didnât mess around as they jumped on the fish quick. Put our limit of reds and a bunch of bay snapper in the belly of the beast! Always a fun time with these guys. Fresh bait shrimp on the bottom and Matrix Shad soft plastics did the trick. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com
Long time customer Petey Kern was back with me today. Our morning started off slow with water temp at 43 degrees. Reds were waking all around us and we even sight casted several, but no takers. We made several moves and finally hit the motherload once the water temp hit 49. We had the reds coming in every cast, having to weed through some undersized fish. Fresh bait shrimp on the bottom did the damage. Thanks Petey for the continued business over all these years. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com

Dr Mike Tuite was back with me once again with a good friend. We had a hot bite first thing in the morning then they shut off. Made some moves picking away at them before running out of time. Even though it was a little slower, we still put a decent mess together. Always a pleasure fishing with Dr Mike, thanks for the continued business over the years. Shrimp creole Matrix Shad under Four Horsemen Tackle corks was top producer on this day. 985-856-4477 www.absolutefishingcharters.com

No one is selling live shrimp in Dularge. You can buy live shrimp in Cocodrie or from the Tracie Macie bait boat depending where he Is located.
Tuesday
I only fish in Dularge!! Launch from my camp everyday I fish!!
We left from my dock at the end of Dularge past Jugs. The tide was falling when we were on our best bite and water temperature was 64 degrees. We had a strong South wind so we had to stay protected on the South banks out of the wind, this is where we found the cleanest water also. Fish are starting to show back up on the inside waters (lake Mechant, Sister Lake, etc) all the way down to the coast. So far things are pointing to a good trout bite this Spring.
Your right about that!! No one ever has said 'wish I had worked more' Thanks, it definitely was a special day. He hasn't stopped asking when can we go again!! I plan to take him more in the future for sure.
Sister and Mechant areas mostly. Hearing multiple good reports from Decade also, but I haven't been there personally.
Trout have been almost everywhere. We have been focusing on reefs, points, and current lines.

Find clean water is most important. We haven't seen and shrimp or birds diving yet, hopefully they will show up by the weekend.
No, it has not been marked.
Correct its a Ridgid reciprocating saw the handheld model. Can be bought at Home Depot or you can also contact Andrew Messenger 225 329 3295 he sells the knifes and the blades. We use them to clean all of our redfish, drum, and sheephead.
Itâs been too cold. Not catching them right now.
