Good weather, good company, good fishing

I fished Calcasieu today with Adam Jaynes and we took advantage of a very good weather day.  Adam recently acquired his Captain's license and is ready to do business.  He is going to be a credit to the profession for a lot of years!

We had intended to look at a lot of water today, but we found the fish at the second stop we made and just hung in there once the wind picked up.  Adam picked up two solid trout with a Corky on an early wade in Turner's, but we had no tide and really couldn't get anything going.

This nice trout ate a MirrOlure jerkbait.

We ran further south and found the mullet and the trout on a flat in less than two feet of water.  We caught and released one 27-inch trout and kept Adam a very nice mess of 17 to 19 inch trout for a fish fry.  Adam caught one of those fish on a Corky Fat Boy and we caught the rest of them, including the big fish, on a Mirrolip...a minnow type jerkbait.

We ran back to Turner's late and caught and relased at least a dozen more trout on Texas Roach Assassins.  We found those fish holding over five feet of shell, but they were hard to stay on due to the wind.  Captain Adam ran me back to the launch aound 5 p.m. so that I could get back to a meeting and he went back out.  I haven't had a chance to talk with him tonight so I don't know how he finished up.

The water was still pretty dirty on the west side of Turner's, but looked pretty good everywhere else.  Water even half that clear on Sabine would save us a lot of gas money!

Try the above address to get three day predictions of wind and how winds will change every 3 hours. It has been pretty accurate for me.

According to the forecast, Wednesday the winds will hit 31 mph

By Thursday winds will settle down to 10 mph.

The forecast is in color, easy to read, graphed nicely, includes temperature and moisture predictions, and has saved me some fine trips.

Hope this helps.
