I decided to make a quick afternoon trip. Fishing was slow. I did manage 2 keepers and I missed quite a few. Water has dropped another 6 inches since Sunday. Spots I use to fish each year during the spawn is too shallow to fish or dry land now. I should of brought my 22 I saw quite a few squirrels today. Attachment 191334Attachment 191335
love the sink pics......
Good report.....you are braver than me though with the fish in the sink lol
G I am divorced so I can clean fish in MY kitchen and put fish in MY sink and not get nagged......lol. I was once given the ultimatum its either me or hunting and fishing. Well I chose the lesser of the 2 evils.
Nice fish there! We need to get together and make a trip sometime being we are both from Lake Charles. Thanks for the pictures.
Would love to. I am getting to know the local hard core fishermen on the Bayou. We all use Courney poles and jigs. We laugh once we notice the jigging poles in each others boats. We start talking about Mr JD and then share info on where and how we are catching. Right now I am in with about 8 guys that regularly fish the bayou, the ditch, and the rivers in Calcasieu and Jeff Davis.
where do I launch and the only other info I need is whether to go north or south?????
Bummer. I would give up a lot of things to keep what I have. Just me I guess.Quote:

Look on Google Earth for the next bridge above Hey 14 and plot a route from that. It's called Lorraine Park and it's managed by Calcasieu Parish. Nice ramp there. Go South and when you get to Hwy 14 you can get down and check that chancy ramp out there. It's rough with very little parking. I launch my yak there and a few folks with 4x4 use it with trailers. I launch at Lorraine Park too. At times you can catch fish to the North of there too.Quote:

Right now it is perfect but it is too deep a ramp for higher water levels. It looks like there isn't enough slope to the drop off.
Yep we've been on the dry side for a while. I'm afraid that a lot of rain and it's going to get soft in addition to what you said. The road can really get soft too as the water ponds in the middle under the bridge with no way to drain out. Parking could get difficult if everybody shows up on the same day.Quote:

There is a lot of dirt and rock that hill. But you know the state's thinking do it half way and twice. But hey who is to complain I have a launch and 20 minutes of run time saved when I want to go as far as Cane Island. If it gets bad then I will have me a private launch. Those buck shots on my Tacoma aren't just for looks....lol
