Much too pretty not to fish!

The gale force winds finally stopped for at least one day, but I was taking care of other obligations.  We tried to get on the water only one time in the past four days and just could not do it...at least not do it and expect to get paid!  Once again, I appreciate all of the e-mails any time I miss a few days of posting reports.  They may possibly alert my wife to the fact that I might be dead and not still out on the water.  I have a bad habit of keeping folks on the water a long time when the fish just will not cooperate.

We are going to fish Calcasieu again tomorrow, but I did get a pair of respectable reports off Sabine tonight.  One group finished with five flounder, three reds, and seven trout that they caught drifting the causeway reef and fishing spinner baits on the La. shoreline.  Their trout were small (still Texas legal), but their flounder were solid fish and the reds they kept were in the upper end of the slot.

Les Burnet said they quit at noon to go to a baseball game, but they kept nine trout and a red that they caught under terns just south of Green's out in the lake.  They hit two other groups of terns just west of the pipeline, but the trout were small. They caught all of their fish on chrome-blue back Traps.  Both groups said the water was in bad shape, but at least the wind wasn't blowing and the fish were there and feeding.
