I will give you any free shimano reel you want....if you can find anywhere I have used Mullet out of August!!! and give you 10 if you can find where I ever fished trout with live shrimp!!!


That's what I thought

Then...why are you so defensive? Got somethin' to hide, do ya? :cool:

Just what I expected...you open your mouth and then avoid the challenge like always... Again you are showed you have no clue what your talking about!!!! So why even post in the fishing section when the last time you caught a trout Ford was still president

Arties only...whatever you say.

Guys lets please not hijack the thread, save it for the gill net.

Some people like to fish bait, some do not. Ford v/s Chevy or whatever. Each side thinks they are right. At the end of the day the rules are the rules and it dosen't matter.

Burgers were off da chain!

I'll find out when I get my teeth back! They sure smelled good. :)

Raymond, I want to congratulate you on the fantastic job you did putting together the 2011 Lake Charles Trout Shootout! Thank you for all the hard work you put in.


Well done Sir!!!

You aint never seen a pic of me throwing a cast net........I have never even attempted to throw one in my whole life...:D

Confucius says - "one must learn to throw net before one can catch shrimp":rotfl:

You see the big guy on the front? He was throwing the net, I can assure you, Neg.

Wasn't planning to post until tomorrow but this thread needs to get back on track!
I appreciate the the kind words from everyone.
The shootout was a team effort, you can't pull off an event like this on your own. Green shirts at the point did a great job of making the chairman look good and I thank them for their effort! ! Please understand, this event was three months in the making and still did not come together until Friday . I do believe the online leader board was one my best ideas of all time and thank Casey for green lighting the idea. Next year salty cajun will be listed as the official web link for the shootout.
Last, thank you to all that participated! Your support makes it possible to hold events like the shootout and fishing seminar.

Best Regards,
Raymond

A great job to all officals and cordinators. Sound's like a lot of laugh's and great fellowship. Oh Raymond have a coke and smile on me .

A big Thank You to all the green shirts. From the outside it looks to have gone off without a hitch. GREAT JOB!

We all know that you can't throw a cast net:*****::*****::*****::*****::*****:

Job well done Raymond!! The online leader board was great!!!!

If the Shootout was artificial only it would have 10 entries like every other artificial only trout tournament on Big Lake. Low entry fee, live bait and high payout for first is the way to draw people. The Shootout has proven this year after year as no other trout tournament on Big Lake even comes close in number of entries.

Easy killer:*****: You are right though, I will never ever catch as many











































trolling motors as you have:*****:



Great job Raymond, I was over there Friday and looked like it was gonna be a good time

Thanks to everyone that put it on. That $5000 will come in handy. Oh yea. And for y'all live bait haters. I caught it on artificial. :)

Good job man. Don't worry about what others think.
