Salt water weekend

Had a couple of friends come down this weekend to catch some shrimp, crabs and fish. We did really good catching our limits of crabs and shrimp both Friday & Saturday and we caught 4 flounder on Saturday. I forgot to bring my camera on the water so I only have pictures from when we got back to the camp. And I forgot to take pictures of the flounder but I will say that DocWaldo, Big John and myself each caught one. Here are the pictures.
We had several ice chest full of crabs! Here are a couple of them.

Now the work begins!
I think we gave away 6 dozen crabs and still had enough to call several people for a crab boil Saturday night!

And finally a couple of sunsets, the first was on the drive home from my moms to get my dog and the second was a sunset over the camp for a close to a really great weekend! God is Great!

i just want to tell dwyane a huge thanks for taking me and john on a trip that we will always remember. the shrimping and crabbing was so much fun, but it was hard work. but the best part of the trip was making new friends and the fellowship with shadow. we brought home a bunch of shrimp, and a boat load of memories. dwyane, you are the best!! not many folks that i know would have treated us as kind as you did!!

doc :)

How would you like to do all that work and catch 6 shrimp? That's what happened the last time I went shrimping. Oh, by the way that was 20 years ago!!

Great post.....

Man it looks like y'all had a great time. I hope Dwayne saves enough shrimp for me to eat at Toledo Bend in Feb.

I have done that too! God smiled on us this weekend though!

Sure looks like a ton of fun, and glad you all had such a productive weekend of catching!

Doc you said it right about Dwayne, "he's the best". I do have a few questions though, did you fish with 8 rods, how many jigs per pole to catch the shrimp, and last how did Randy sneak in there.

I glad y'all had a grand time as I know all about Dwayne's hospitality. None better, and he has a great family.

looks like an awesome weekend. i live in south central ms but there's no other place like the south la marshes. nature's grocery store.

South Louisiana is a special place filled with a lot of special, fun, people who are not afraid of work and not afraid to have a good time. I love that state and it's people.
