Hi gang. Just signed up over here. My names Capt Henry. Most know me by Bud or LordBud. I've been around the fishing sites for a long time off and on.
As of the new year i've finally followed my dream and opened up my own charter fishing business named Trophy Trout Charters. Its been a lot of work and I still have a long way to go but in the end things should just work out fine. I've fished my whole life. Mainly Lake Pontchartrain, Rigolets, Lake Borgne and Hopedale. Past few years i've learned Lafitte fairly well also.
One thing special about my style of fishing is we are going to offer trolling trips out in Lake P. Everyone knows how to troll but not many know the correct way. I was taught by an old man who would take his 3 ft shotgun rod and a compagna skiff out along the bridges and load up with some mule trout!
Eman had called me and told me what was going on with the things this site was doing for families for Christmas. My grandmother passed a few years ago and i still have all her furniture in the garage taking up space. My wifes been yelling at my for months to sell it. I figured I could use some good Karma so I offered it up to Eman to help the families out.
If any of you guys have any questions about Lake P or this side of the state feel free to ask. I'll do my best to help out. Hopefully this rain will stop sometime soon and we can get back to fishing. Until then Tight Lines and Screaming Drags!!

Welcome aboard Capt.

You mentioned a Campagna skiff...... some of the best times I ever had that I rmeber and don't with clothes on or without were in a Campagna skiff. My buddy had a 17' with a 30 HP Yamaha and we did everything out of that little boat from running Poul D'eauxs, Hydrosliding, Fishing, Jug Lines, Crawfish, Frogging, if you could do it with a boat we did it including decorating it and riding it in the Boat Blessing.
