Logan’s Redfish
Limits of Redfish
I had a chance to fish with a long time client and good friend Stan Read, his wife Teresa, and their 9 year old son Alex. It was Alex’s first Redfish trip to New Orleans with his parents, and for the first time he did well. He Caught his first Redfish casting a black and chartruese Bayou Chub minnow on a 1/4oz jighead. He now joined the rankings with the big guys. It was not an easy day casting against the 20mph wind, but he made it look easy. We saw a Redfish waking down the bank and Teresa chunked a Bayou Chub in front of him and it was ON! There is Nothing like site casting for Redfish in shallow marsh. Stan caught a few site casting on the deck with me also. We ended our day with a limit of Refish, and have the pictures to prove it!
Thanks for a great day!
New Orleans Fishing at its Best, Good Luck and Good Fishing!

It was a beautiful day to be out on the water, with a nice cool breeze and no rain in sight.

We started the day out from Lafitte in search of redfish. I went in the direction of Bay Round to find some nice reds that I spotted a couple of days before. The the water was very dirty from the windy days before, and the rain and high winds we had the night before. So we decided to go to a few of my favorite duck ponds, and see what the shallow water looked like. The duck ponds were also dirty from the bad weather the night before also.

We threw baits at many redfish waking down the banks, but were not very successful at getting many to given the conitions. We set out to our second spot, with no luck, although we saw many redfish.

One of my favorite ponds did produce some willing redfish. We landed 9 redfish and one 1 Speckled Trout. It finally came as a relief after casting at more than 50 stubborn redfish. It was frustrating watching them swim by the baits and turn their nose to the lure. After exhausting our efforts in finding clean water and with the winds picking up to 15-20 mph, we finally called it a day. We returned to the dock with 9 redfish and 1 trout.
