Made a trip with retired LSU SeaGrant professor Jerald Horst. Go figure, the day a biologist is onboard, we find the oxygen levels in Breton Sound were strangely and significantly low. The fishing was only OK, but the conversation and knowledge he shared on Speckled Trout was amazing.
Jerald took the time to talk about the life cycles, feeding habits, and breeding instincts that create predictable patterns for anglers to use in their effort to catch fish. We discussed their known predatory practices as well as their seasonal patterns. The show will dissect the speckled trout's needs and wants and give a real insight into a fish that so many love and so few understand. The show should be out in three weeks.
Along with a preview of his new book Trout Masters, Jerald is something of a food "hound" and has compiled a flavor packed book on shrimp and only shrimp. Look for both of these in your local book stores or on the La Sportsman web site.
Since the trip with Jerald Horst, fishing has picked up significantly. Fishing is strong, the BIGFISH cabins are cool, and now is a great time to call and schedule a trip. We are leaving early and fishing hard to beat the heat.
Make a call to the one phone number the fish in Breton Sound don't want you to know 504-BIGFISH.
