I know you ain't talkin' about the urnge one.

I'm impressed to see that you make our little ******head buddy wear a PFD. Buckle that thing up, boy!

[Xpressboat908]

W you should try other places. Trust me Big Lake is not the greatest place to fish. If it is close to you and you know the place like the back of your hand well understood. Try going out side of the box a few times and you may be suprised. Trust me their is fishing life out side of BIG/LITTLE Lake!

Their is no need for me to go anywhere else!! Only lake in LA where on any given day you can boat a 9lb+ and I have to disagree with not catching limits of 16-19inch trout.....I do have pictures with numbers of limits with these size trout!!! I love to eat the 12incher myself but I promise that I have all I need over here and no need to fish anywhere else

Come on over and fish our waters and I'll come over there and fish yours. You can even stay at my house.

[Xpressboat908]

I agree with the 9 plus pounds however show me one of your pictures that you have 15 trout that are an average of 16-17"! Forget about 18-19". Not going to happen. Well I will give you this, if you have 1 out of 20 catches you are lucky! I may not catch as many trout as you but I catch my fair share at the lake and most are 12-14". However, if you want to catch the monsters that are not good to eat BIG/Little Lake is the place to go. I think my new name for the lake defines it well - BIG/Little.

[Ducktrickster]

What did you catch? Our final tally was a whopping 4 .... that we kept.:D

I was new to Big Lake in Sept Stayed until June. Fished at least 3 times a week. Dude I caught more trout over 16" than my 2 year stay in Venice. I caught very few fish under 14". Not bragging, just stating facts! That place is impressive. It's by no means easy to fish. You have to bust your azz & burn some gas to locate them, but you will be rewarded. Who was it that had the tread "Big lake fishes little" maybe you need to check it out to understand.

I remember that day.....:*****::*****::*****:

[Ray]

I went out today, the weather was perfect, the water was dark green except at the Jettys, brown water there, but I couldn't find any bait or birds except in one place and all I got were small specks, one small flounder and some big croakers.
I went to the Jettys, Long Point, Rabbit Island, upper Grand Bayou and the Washout. I also fished the last weirs to the north. There was hardly any winds, tide going out till about 8:30. Then the tide stopped, the winds stopped, it was like glass.
Then around 9:30 the tide started coming back in and light winds came out of the East. But still no big fish.
I had 4 small keepers, but turned them loose cause it was to much trouble to clean them.
I was throwing LSU eels and could see some small fish following it to the boat, but no bite. So I changed to a clear eel with silver glitter and started catching the lil dinks.

[SULPHITE]

thanks for the report Ray!

Im not saying I dont believe you...but its hard for me to believe a 10+ came out of lake P....I mean 4 were caught and not ONE WAS ENTERED IN THE STAR?????????????????????? Just hard to belive!!!

Now WAS IT CHINK!! LMAO

Chink never caught a 10. Supposedly...he caught a 9-fish stringer that weighed over 80 lbs. :shaking:

Chink is a Croaker Soaker.....That dont count!!! Not in my books!!!

There has not been a reported double digit trout from Lake P in years!!!! I got this from a very good source....HH...You will have to show some PICS for me to buy that...4 over 10lb!!!

I can prove there were 3 over 10lbs last year caught in Big lake....two were in the sportsman......One on the cover!!!

[cmdrost]

sorry...I don't buy it either. 4 10 pounders in the last 4 months would have made some news stories somewhere. 9.6 doesn' t count either, can't round up with trophy trout.

[jsmoke222000]

How is the water looking on Big Lake today?

[Gerald]

The water at Heber's yesterday [late morning] was very very muddy and I was worry that the lake would be bad. But once out in the lake, the water was not bad [4" to 8" visability].

The farther south you go, it gets to 12" plus.

The lake was glass calm for the first hour or so but by mid afternoon the winds were up to a steady 12 to 15 mph. By 5 PM the winds were felt like near 20 mph and I was really bouncing in my small boat.

There was a big rain storm over by the ship channel.....so I headed North. I found birds twice that held some trout, but mostly dinks.

I caught a 5 dozen limit of crabs, but had to move around some to find a spot where I caught them steady. Took me almost 4 hours.

I only caught 4 keeper trout......but crabs were my gold for the day.

Glow and char.....sand eel jr worked good today. I had lots of good strikes, but they quickly got off.

[SULPHITE]

Whats the tide doing on BL in afternoons...in our out...strong??

[Gerald]

At 11 AM it may have been going out slightly....hard to tell.

Early afternoon the water was coming out of Grand Bayou a little.

By 3:30 PM it was coming back into Grand Bayou a little......but the wind had been blowing for a while.

At 5:30 PM, it was coming in good by Fred's Lounge....but the winds were 15+ mph from the south and it had been calm around Noon.

[SULPHITE]

Thanks Gerald!!

[Ray]

Gerald, were you the one crabbing at the Grand Bayou weirs in an aluminum boat yesterday?

[Ray]

And ZERO Ladyfish. That was a first for me this year.

[Gerald]

Gerald, were you the one crabbing at the Grand Bayou weirs in an aluminum boat yesterday?

Ray....I was at the weir around noon for about 30 minutes.....only boat there because it was slow. I then moved away from the wier looking for more crabs.

[Ray]

I saw an aluminum boat there when I went in and out.

:smokin:

[Gerald]

Ray.....here is my boat. Is this what you saw?

What time were you at GB thursday?

[Ray]

That's not it, it was green. I went in around 9:30 or so. Cannot remember when I came out. The guy was crabbing on the outside when I went in and then crabbing on the inside when I came out.

[champion]

The hat is fine. Make him wear it like a man.......with the bill forward.
