[By-Catch]

Just joined the site after reading reports for a long time and using the information to plan my trips so thought I would start sharing some reports. I fish Calcasieu, Vermillion Bay, Pecan Island, Grand Cheiner plus several freshwater Bass spots.

Yesterday went out to Vermillion Bay West Side with the wife, which meant a late start from home. Launched out of Intracoastal City fished the west side of the Bay. Water looked good for V-Bay, just not quite salty enough for the trout to really move in. We caught plenty of redfish and Big freshwater catfish non-stop from 11:00am to 1:00pm. Wife wanted to go boat riding so we shut it down with the fish biting and went burn some gas. I'll try to get pics loaded.
