10/6/09 big lake
 

Well today David H , James and I went out and fought way too hard for fish.....We only ended up with around 20-25 trout and 2 reds.....Dont know what happened but it sucked bad..... Even the reefs were not holding many trout...and the sandies are stupid thick....but only 10inches long

I will post some pic up on Monday

Hey, get in your time machine and fast forward to November...That's 11...

W get your dates right.... We are not in Oct any more....

25
 

Me and a buddy picked up 25 today, but it was tough. If we did not catch 100 sandies, we did not catch one. They are really thick.

Yep them sandies are out of hand!!

thats cuz u were using them eels!!!

I eat Sand Trout. They's in danger if'n they hit my hook...

me too ray they fry up real good

I heard they'll be in next month's issue of Louisiana Sportsman.....

hows the water over there on yalls side?? everything is dirty over here right now for some reason...theres still small skool trout but its hard to find good trout right now..

The Calcasieu river is a little high and very muddy and the water looks kind of stained. It will take a couple of weeks of dry weather to get back to normal conditions.

Yeah, right after Tropical Storm Ida.

Like em fresh.
They seem to get mushy if frozen for very long.

I never froze Sand Trout.
The more I catch, the more people I invite to eat.
I make sure I don't have any to freeze.
I have heard they are not good after being froze, but
I don't know that from experience.

???
 

You know Ray, I never tried em after freezing either (that i can remember) was always told they were mushy so never tried em. May have to give it a try. They have to have a few million of them things 10" or less.

The lake on the south end was clean and fairly salty.

If you freeze the white trout in water, they will keep ok for a few months.

froze a bunch i caught in leeville they were ok but you had to set them out to defrost slow or they were real mushy....i would put them in the refrig. and let them thaw..that is what one of them old timers told me don't ask me why

Sand trout do fry good.Do like to eat them too.

your crazy! white trout the little ones taste BETTER than specks i eat the babies!!!! and they freeze fine if u vacuum seal em with NO water so when you thaw em it doesn't get mush
