Calcasieu River 6/26 AM
 

Took to the River at the crack of dawn and had an interesting day. We had some luck catching a few good fish but they were far apart and we really had to work for them. Our best 5 would have been 9 lbs + or -. No real pattern as we caught some on top some on bottom and some in the middle. Some Shallow and some deaper. We did however catch a Nice red and a trout in west fork! All in all we had 10 or so bass. It got too hot around 2 pm so we called it a day. I have a cool video of the red being caught but I cant figure out how to get it from my I phone to this site. If anyone knows let me know.

nice wall hanger!

Nice job guys. We struggled on the calcasieu yesterday am. Thanks for the report.

I think you can only do videos by uploading them to you tube or somethin.

Tell loren to get of my river

We just need a change. You are welcome on the Mermentau anytime fool LOL

Thanks! I had to take that photo lol. It was the exact same size as my Spook Jr. Reeled it in thinking I had snagged a leaf lol!:rotfl:

Lol. I got a tournament I believe on the Mermentau soon I think.. I'll have to look at my Sked. .

Well fool if you have one pray to the rain gods for a flood to help clear up and can y'all get advise or like pros no out side help

Im not sure. I usually just pre fish it hard. Worked in the past for spots that im not used to..

EDIT- I just looked at my sked, we don't have on on Merm. River. We discussed it, but i guess they didn't vote for it..

Club
 

What club you in?

SW Bassmasters.

I fish their youth tournaments. .

Next year plan to fish BFL

That sucks. Its a good challenge

any reports from streeters?

I haven't been but I hear it is really low. I like Streeters when the water is in the grass and stumps. The whole system is really low. We need some rain to flush it and raise the water.

How's the Mermentau river looking between mermentau and lake arthur? 10-12" visibility? Getting those green streaks yet?
BTW, nice report and trip.

Thanks,
Ronnie

Low like everything else. I wouldn't give it 10-12 more like 6-8. Fishable though. Very little if any current. Need rain!

I can handle that. When it gets around 18", it's pretty, but i find the fish get more skittish. I might try to make a trip after i get my prop shaft fixed!!
Thanks for the info Rather B,

Ronnie

No problem. Good luck. Make sure you report your findings ;)

If I can get my prop shaft fixed and don't go to toledo bend I'll make a trip to the river and sure will give a report.
If you hear of anything, let me know please.

Thanks,
Ronnie
