Calcasieu river (weekly report thread)
 

On this thread i will post reports of the calcasieu river weekly!



well water is pouring out of canals in mornings (low water!) and is puring back into the canals come mid afternoon. its been bad. water is semi-stained, i cant catch fish right now. backwater fishing isnt doing good due to the high water, some spots bream are biting. if you do decide to fish with all this bad weather and water, fish the west fork, the calcasieu is muddy, (the report i just gave is for the west fork.) so try mouths of canals for bass, and try wharfs and cypress knees for bream.

fishing should pick back up soon (especially bream)

good luck and hope that helps!

Late post for Lake
 

:work: sorry for late post but got busy and at work now!
Started last monday about noon,fished a few spots on east.Threw top water with one hit & one miss (0 fish).Started drifting mid south on lake throwing chicken on a chain and caught a couple about 16''.Water was dirty in one spot and decently clear about 200 yard down.Went to natural shrimp (gulp) and by golly here come the birds and shrimp flying out water about 2:00 pm.Broke off 4 trout (old bass habits keep haunting me).Well i remembered what ''W'' said and backed off drag.Ended the day with 23 trout,had a 5 lb and a few 3 lb and the rest were 16'' to 18''.The wife had a monster at boat and i with no net was trying to grab that sucker,what a site.Well he broke off and made the 5 look smaller ( figured it would have been about 7 lb!! Man she is still pissed at me.Well next week will do the middle of lake more toward east side if winds permit me.
Had 2 seperate boats fish birds with us and i say they had respect and kept there distance from fish as we did.Its nice fishing around guys like that and we really enjoyed the day unlike so many others when you got guys running 25 yards from you doing 50 m.p.h.
Remember its to easy to be respectfull and gain friends in the water then be RUDE and gain enemies.
GOOD LIKE GUYS

this is also a good one full of eggs weighed her around like 3.5 or somethen

Here is a picture of what a 3 lb Bass looks like.

This fish was the "Big" Bass in this weeks Calcasieu river Dogfight.

managed to get out of the house this evening and go after some bream with austin (boatmans son). ran to a few spots that neither of us had fished for bream before. caught a few. hit one spot and we smoked em!! caught around 35-40 and 1 catfish. lost a huge white perch at the boat.

had a blast. kept 20 or so and the catfish

Fool, what were you using for bait? What type of structure were you fishing? Are the lillypads up in the westfork yet? May take my boys out this afternoon.

live worms, trees fallen from the bank, and yeh theres a few lilys up there! One wharf (sea wall) has around 150 of em!

also-


The bait balls are coming out now! bait fish are everywhere! i'm starting to chase them for the big uns.

i have a tournament tommorrow out on the river.

White perch = crappie?

yup

This is a 9 pounder caught in Sam Rayburn Texas while prefishing a bass tournament (American Bass Anglers). Thats me in the picture before i cut my beard. I grew a beard to see what it would look like.... It didnt last long. looks nasty huh?

The second is a 3.99 pound bass. The biggest bass of that tournament was 4.00. I missed "big bass" by the weight of a drop of water, I would have gotten like 8,000 dollars extra for "bigbass".
