Working out of a canoe, and more recently a kayak that I traded my pirogue for, I've been returning over and over to the protected areas off of Lery. Last year, the grass was thick just about everywhere. Theres a lot less grass in the water than there was last year, but I've still found a wealth of bass and reds stacked up. Rotating thru gold spoon, spinner bait, and a red shad worm keeps them biting. Tuesday with a friend produced 20 bass and 2 reds (forgot the ruler, threw a lot back) and Thursday by myself saw an easy limit of reds and 6 bass.
Delacroix, for all its lost, is still a damn good fishery; close to the city and full of opportunities for kayak fishing.
I traded a pirogue for a Pelican Castaway. Ive used it in GI, Fouchon, Delacroix, etc. and its treated me fairly well. Its a wet ride, with no stability for standing, a terrible seat, and not a lot of area to work out of. Frankly its terrible, but I forget how uncomfortable I am every time I get hooked up.
Thinking of upgrading, so if anyone wants to weigh in on a good yak to invest in I'd appreciate it.
