Default Fourchon storms / trout slam

Took my girlfriend and her mom fishing today .... Hit the beach 1st thing to catch at least 1 on tw ...stuck a 3lbr n headed offshore, it was pretty calm make it about 15-20 miles sse to 100 ft of water n it starts looking dark like a storm is movin in. Start pitching baits tryin to stick some mangroves..... Nothing but sharks, gf was bottom fishing n couldn't get 8oz down faster that the sharks.. Pissed..... Run a bit farther get bombarded by LOOP security by their 50-70' stealth gunner boat, tell us to follow them out of the secure zone, funny thing is we were no in the LOOP, but I did see a big tanker off in the distance so maybe that's why. So we made a run in trying to escape the storms to the east n west of us . Made it back inside belle pass in one piece n headed out the back way to the islands , found some good water n started catching some really nice trout super shallow ... A little shallower than we could get, so I convinced my girlfriend to hop in and wade with me, we ended up with 25 real nice trout . So after 3 days if fishing last weekend and again today I figured she wouldn't want to go tomorrow.... Wrong she's down to go tomorrow and wants to wade! Hetes a few pics from today
