Louisiana Redfish Trip w/pics

We just got back from a 2 day fishing trip out of the Jean Lafitte area of Louisiana with Captain Scott Pouche' and Captain Mike Juhas. The first day we fished was with Capt. Mike and the wind was blowing hard out of the north. We were using nothing but artificials and it was a little tough. Between my son and I we put 6 fish in the boat with a few good ones on gold spoons and cocahoe swimbaits.

The second day an old Navy buddy joined us and and we did a little better with 3 limits including the Capt. and we ended up with 18 total. The wind had switched to the southeast and the tide started coming back in. We used nothing but the cocahoes and found them in flooded ponds. We had a blast and I highly recommend New Orleans Fishing Charters and Capt. Scott Pouche'. We also stayed right there about 30 yards from the Captains docks as they have some great lodging available. Here's a few more pics of our trip.

That's a trip I need to take, looks like y'all had a blast.

Great catches and pic's,,,, looks like the weather wasn't too bad,,,,

I'd take that!.

Thanks guys! It's a great trip, especially if you like to eat fish. I usually try and go once a year and bring back red and speck filets, shrimp and redfish on the half shell for the deep freeze. Captain Scott is a great host and treated us like we were family. These guys went out of their way to make sure we had a fun trip. You can stay within just a few yards of the docks and all your catch is cleaned and bagged right at the dock.

Very nice!
