On May 25th through the 28th I had the pleasure of fishing with Lauren Chew from CA.
Lauren asked me if I could bring him to catch Redfish, he wanted to try his hand on catching a Louisiana Redfish, And as a avid angler Catching Redfish is what he did. Lauren and I caught 195 Redfish in four days of fishing, we caught and released all but 15 Redfish for the four days.
On monday we caught 21 Redfish with the wind and rainy weather, but we did not let the weather scare us into the dock. Most of the Redfish were caught on 3″ black and chartreuse Bayou Chub minnows with a gold spinner and a 1/4oz jighead.
On tuesday we caught only 16 Redfish for the day, as the day was not that great do to the water being dirty and windy conditions.
But on wensday we had my personal best trip ever, 120 Refish caught and released for the day, all were caught on Johnson Gold spoons, with 80 caught in one spot on anchor over a shell reef that I like to fish often.
Thursday we caught 35 Redfish, with 15 of them caught on the same reef we caught the 80 redfish the day before. All were caught on Johnson Gold spoons and were released to fight another day. This was New Orleans fishing at its best!
