I have some friends that don't allow live bait in their boat. I got em real good in Turners several times after the spring rains washed out. Just before or just after Calcasieu point was able to keep live shrimp for first time this year. I threw just a regular avocado/chartreuse cacohoe and had a blast. Matter of fact that was my first catches of some really nice fish. Anyway Enjoy yalls pics and I see yall out there quite a bit. Just yalls pics says a lot. One of these days I'm gonna go try for some bass, flounder, and reds like yall were on earlier. I used to go up in black bayou just south of refuge and catch them like that. That was some cool pics. I think I even saw u up by casinos 4-6 weeks ago. At the time I thought yall were fishing way up there , and may have been, but then realized clients like to be picked up there. Anyway thanks for reply

It's all about confidence.. I grew up fishing big lake with my dad and we never used lived bait so I'm confident in artificial .
I do sometimes have to get live shrimp it the situation calls for it but not very often ..
U can catch on plastic 365 a year just some are not confident in it or don't know how to present it to be confident
Most guys who fish for big trout in winter time and spring like the challenge of artificial vs soaking bait ..
Just all about what you use too
