but again......you have to know how to fish and what areas to fish and where to fish at times of the year. I limit out 85% of the times i fish......last year I keep in my boat 3,045 trout. I tagged and released over 200 along with Chris who tagged about 200 of his tags Most of the time when I keep fish it goes to who is with me I fished 110 days in 2010 with adv trip of 27.2 trout per trip... ( I fish with 3 guys about 40% of the time) This does not count all trout let go or undersize just what went in the box for the day. My data book goes back to 2002 when i started keeping a log,,,,,,, biggest year I had was 2006 after Rita...which I believe I keep around 3900 trout My least year was 2005 867 but we had Rita and I was in a car accident which keep me off the water half a year.... Now from 2001 to 2005 I did not work 7 n 7 I worked 5-3 and 4-3 for all these years.......which meant lot less time on the water..but I could keep a bigger limit I also show over and over that trout come back to the same spots at the same time of the year over and over...But It also shows that the numbers in those areas have declined in some and increased in others... Once my data book is over 20 years old...Im going to get with someone and It might be Jody with LSU and let him use the data for his benefit. I keep all details like tide, moon, wind, salinity, water temp, and locations |

Now if you hate LSU, all bets are off. |

I disagree to some extent. I do recognize that they spend a lot of money here but, Lake Charles was built around our deep water port as well as the petrochem business. It was here long before the casinos and will be here long after the casinos set sail! |

Don't hate Texas..hell all my fishing stuff is Texas made...Just like to make fun of the Pilgrims that come from their. Where else can you get entertained watching a bunch of guys drool of sheephead and black drum..... Or post a 5lb 17inch trout Or get to see a Post that says "Awesome Day" and it shows drum and sheephead Or a guide who post a pic with a limit of Black Drum and Sheephead with 3 trout Or guys get in a fight because someone post a boat load of sheephead and they go Jr Game Warden on them....LMAO...(one of the Best) Or discribe a whole limit of (5) trout with detail on how you caught each one and their exact inches Or the one that got off was 30 inches for sure |

Nice bunch of data. Prolly make an interesting read. I don't catch near as many trout as that but I don't try either. I love the top water bite so much that I pass over fish that I know I could catch on plastics. If I catch 5-10 fish on topwater in a day, I am perfectly happy. If I want a pile of fish to eat, I go catch my flounder. Fella drifted near me one day catching fish on every cast on live shrimp. He yelled at me to put da shrimp on. I said I didn't have any but was content with walking the dog. LOL, he shook his head like I was some kinda fool for goin into the lake with no shrimp. |

Keep in mind several of those big companies are based in Texas. Houston is the energy capital of North America. Louisiana is down to one fortune 500 company. Look I love Louisiana as much or more than most but Texas is a giant when it comes to the economy. Texas has a higher GDP than all but around 15 countries. Texas and Louisiana has always had a very good partnership in the chemical and industrial industries. |

No I am clueless about the economy and business. Yes and you realize that the ports of Houston and New Orleans have substantially more traffic right down the road from you. |

Yes I know all of this. I didn't say it was the largest and I do know which one is the largest. To me, the top ten qualifies as "ONE of the largest." It doesn't matter, again, I was only referring to the casinos. |
Shoot, I forgot what this thread started out as . . . I'm goin' to the Gill Net to see if Montauk has posted any new pics of apples . . . LOL

My bad guys, I caused this one to get off topic. I will give myself an infraction.

From what I saw it was about 40-50 trout with 4 guys in a boat There is 2 guides I know who come in daily with a limit of trout..and one has a 30 fish guarantee or you dont pay....(30fish is Reds and Trout) I know this year I smoked several guide boats and they fished till 2pm and I was done at 9am...but they have done the same to me also....(I also dont have people to call me and let me know where the fish are) But if you take a week of fishing by each guide you will find the higher number is none limits |
