Laccassine Reserve Streeters Canals 3/29/14
Attachment 156383Attachment 156384Attachment 156387Fished Streeters Canal this morning. Fished 50 yards of bank and sheered my trolling motor pin. I think great extra pins are in my salt water tackle box. I had my dogs with me so I left the cork in the water so they wouldn't get tangled in it. The wind picked up and started to blow me into the bank. So I cranked up the motor to move out of the wind. BIG MISTAKE. I hear that solo reel screaming. Oh S T!!!!. So now I am dead in the water. No trolling motor or engine now. What a way to start a trip. I had to use my little telescopic paddle and paddle to the bank. While paddling a 100 yards to the only hard bank see I think boy isn't fishing fun. Well I get to the bank stand knee deep in water remove prop and fix trolling motor with a catfish hook. I end up catching 19 sacs, 1 bass, 3 bream and a ton of throw back goggle eyes. I had a blast. There were about 8 boats sac fishing with shiners. Those guys couldn't buy a fish. They were starting to get mad cuz I would go behind them and catch fish where they could not......lol. Solid colored Chartreuse jigs was the ticket fished 10 in deep tight to any type of cover. Everyone I talked to said the past few weekends they have been catching good numbers and sized sacs. They all said it was slow and the fronts have hurt the fishing.
Oh by the way Shallow Runner fished the Mermentau and picked up 20 sacs in 2 of his honey holes.
