I heard the dwlf closed henderson cause of the drawdown,sounds weird to me.....any truth to that? I heard they were catching alot of small bass and some decent sac a lait before they started lowering the lake.

I see no one is trying to cover anything around Morgan City, so I can volunteer myself to cover some of the area I fish Specs and reds from Lake decade all the way to the Atchafalaya Bay including Point au fer. I fish freshwater mostly down the Atchafalaya river and Lake Verett. I work offshore so I cant update as much as I would Like too. Let me know if you want me to do it

When I passed over the basin bridge last week, Henderson was drawn down or in a severe drought. It was too low to get out of any of the canals.

[Montauk17]

They have been draining henderson for the past few years to control the hydrilla,but they never closed it before. I use to fish it with it low like it is when I still had my 14' flat with a 25 and use to smoke the bass.Not sure if its closed or not.......

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

Drove over it today and I was amazed. I've personally never seen it this low

[Montauk17]

It has been this low before...I have rode four wheelers in the flats before

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

That's awesome lol.

[Ray]

I have seen many 4 wheeler trails all over it when passing over it on the bridge when it is drawn down. The driest I have ever seen it was in 2000. NO water was to be seen from the bridge in either direction.

Had a trip before rita and katrina when it was low and caught over a 100 bass on rattle traps....they had a mayjor fish kill after gustav and ike so im sure it would be a differant story now days.

That would be cool man,we need more people on this site that fishes vermillion bay area. I have noticed that alot of people are hush hush about reports,prolly because we have so many yo yos that don't know how to fish if you know what I mean.

[Ray]

I remember the terrible smell of dead stuff after Gustav when passing over the basin bridge.

Ray....Im naming you our weather man....YOU will report the days your working and days your home........

[Ray]

I already started a thread called "Fishing Trip Planner" with my schedule on it.
I am working on the yeller days. Those are the best days to fish during each month.
At least I am giving you 14 good fishing days each month.

Thanks guys for the help....We will pick guys from one area and put you as the go to guy......

Yeah......guess it wouldn't be much of a field report if all they consisted of is

"I didn't catch anything AGAIN today, there must not be any fish there....... at all"

[jpeff31787]
