    Default Mermentau River again-2-2016


    Well made it back to the Mermentau River on Saturday.Lots of people out on the water.Once again fished off of the Ferguson Ditch and was able to limit out.Fish caught were mostly medium size males with a couple of females (with eggs) caught but no real nice fish to report.Fish caught with shiners in about 1ft deep next to cypress knees and tupelo trees.Not sure if females have all spawned and males are fertilizing or if males are preparing for females.All in all had a great day and was able to have a little challenge with two of my friends (brothers) that I met while on the water.Arrived at the same area at same time and fished the same area.They ended up with a total of 53 fish between the 2 and after we all met up at one of the brothers house and cleaned fish.Name:  Mermentau 2-20-16.jpg

    Nice catch. A friend of mine just started catching numbers on the river also. He thinks it will get even better this week. Lets hope this rain coming doesn't mess it up like it did a few years back. We need to trade secretes Mermentau for Lacassine. I have a camp on Lake Arthur and fish the river too, but don't know it as well as Lacassine.

    Good report. Congratulations on a tremendous catch. It has been more than 30 years since I have caught a limit of 50 fish. All I can say is WOW and you the MAN.

    Nice mess of fish.. Congrats on the catch.. I have been thinking about giving it a shot next weekend but gonna wait and see how much rain we get.. It's been several years since I fish that area, and it is the closest to home. Thanks for the report.
    You can't fish with a hung line!
