So July has been outstanding! I went to Chicago for the weekend of the 4th but got back home at 145AM on the 4th, washed my face, changed clothes and went fishing with decent results. The next 2 weekends I was able to fish Saturday and Sunday both weekends, laying waste [...]
Sorry it's been a while. Website issues caused me to write and loose 3 articles. Yeah. Anyways, I scouted 3 of 4 Minimalist Zone launches at least 10 times, with numerous people including Wade Barbay, Josh Redd, Austin Johnson and Michael Ethridge. We caught fish everywhere but very few trout on [...]
ThursdayGot home on schedule just after 5 and staged gear. Wife got home at 525 and backed the truck to the cart, gave me hugs and kisses, wished me good luck and took off with her sister. 20 minutes later I was getting on I10 and a few minutes later I [...]

Last Saturday, fished the Forbidden Hole with some others. Caught a few fish but water and air temp never reached 50 degrees. Didn't want to whine and moan, but today was an altogether different day. What a difference a week makes. 20 degree change in water temp! Too much iced [...]
The Fall N Tide tournament, hosted by the Bayou Coast Kayak Fishing Club (BCKFC), is said to be one of the oldest kayak fishing tournaments still in existence. Fall N Tide is typically one of BCKFC’s largest, most attended tournaments each year consisting of a weekend long event packed full [...]
One of the top kayak fishing destinations in the world is Los Buzos. Many may not have heard of it, but that is changing by the minute. Los Buzos is a small resort located in Cambutal, Panama along the Pacific Ocean. It is a 6-hour drive from Panama City with [...]

For me, Spring time in Louisiana conjures up images of trout…big trout exploding on topwater. It is our final escape from the doldrums of February and [...]
