Been trying to get a buddy from Abita KC's back out to the T-Funky and today we made a trip to the T-Funky,got an early start,found the water much clearer than previous trips and we actually saw a handful of fishermen,chatted with one veteran T-Funky sac a lait chaser and actually fished one of the same sloughs and saw him arm-wrestle a fine bass,probably bout 4 lbs(saw plenty of bass bedding down,hint,hint)and Neal and I managed to box two decent sac a lait and Neal nabbed fine bass,lost a true chunk right next to boat(older son,possibly grandson,musta confiscated my landing net-used to to catch a few of their chickens!!)and Neal and I saw the tail fin of very nice bass behind some fine cypress trees.I told him next time we get together,we might chase some bass and sac a lait,not always easy and the ole-timer we ran into did indeed agree dat dem slabs much better-tasting than bass,anyday!!Had fun and the overcast initial conditions made our trip extremely pleasant.Water was about 73 degrees and bet the slabs gonna be congregating real soon.I caught my sac a lait on Bobby Garland soft plastic,Neal caught his fish on Spoiler Shad,not sure what color,but those are some slab-killas!!

P.S. Highlight of trip was witnessing fine osprey soar down and nab a fish-we heard the spash and spotted the osprey swooping around scoping out the surfacing fish and it grabbed a nice one!!
