Good report Dwyane.....nice pics.....

Way to go Dwayne. Good report. Congratulations to you and your dad. Oh, by the way, you look just like your dad.

Nice report and pics, thanks for posting!

Looks like fun. Glad yall caught. We finished the trailer. New axle, springs, hubs, rims, tires, bolsters, boards, winch, lights, 2in hitch, and all new stainless hardware. I could of saved money buying another used trailer but the galvanizing on a 1970's Highlander trailer is hard to beat. It should be good for another 37 years. Next we are taking the boat to south side for repairs and then carpet. It won't be long and I will get out there too.

Nice pictures What did that old popeye (Biloxi bacon) bite on. When I was a small child I caught a many a one on a pinch of worm and about a #8 long shank hook.

Good report Dwyane! Next to crappie, bream are my next favorite freshwater fish to eat! Always fun to get on some, so glad you guys had a good trip together.

That's it, you nailed it.

I love the gills, catching and eating. I like them scaled and then fileted as well as on the bone. They are a little work but well worth it.

I just read in the Louisiana Sportsman Magazine on line version, that someone caught a possible new state record bluegill. It weight in at 1.83 pounds and was caught in Iatt Lake. There have been much bigger ones caught and recorded but they redid the records some years back and all the big ones were put aside. I knew the fellow, OJ Eschete who held 3rd place at one time with a 3 pound plus bluegill. He had it mounted and on display at the sporting goods store where he worked here in Houma. That fish was almost as wide as he was long and beautifully mark with his red belly.

Potential new No. 1-ranked bluegill caught Saturday on kiddie pole in Iatt Lake - Louisiana Sportsman News Breaker, LA

​As hard as bluegill fight I believe a 3 pounder would jerk me out of the boat!

U may want to move fire extinguisher toward the front of boat. Was reading regs on that and it stated store toward front of boat. Generally all fires start in back of boat. Looks like y'all had a great time! Keep it up!

Nice catch D.

He should be ok with where it is at.. The regs just say "Extinguishers should be placed in an accessible area where they can be reached immediately. Be sure you know how to operate them and inspect them regularly." His boat is a tiller handle operated and he would be sitting right next to it in case of a fire.

Great post and excellent pictures as always Dwayne.
