9/30/2024 My Bride and I Fished the Funky T River today

[BON TEMPS]

My Bride and I launched at Hwy 22 in Madisonville at 7:45. Water was at a stand still and 81 F. Still a lot of vegetation and trash floating every where. The amount of shad was crazy. There will be no starving fish for a while because the shad clouds were Hugh and non stop.
Found nice size sacalait immediately and big groups of them. The problem was they would follow up to the surface and turn back to the school. I saw more sacalait today than I have seen in a long time. When they decide to eat it will be on like DONKEY KONG!!! Most fish caught on shad color plastic but we did try the rainbow just to see if it would entice them to bite better. Nope!!


Ended up with 13 nice ones and threw back as many tacos. Beautiful weather and a great day with my Bride on the water.


Bon Temps !
