I have been keeping up with the satellite imagery and it looks like it has been muddy since February. From what I hear fishing has been tough. Hopefully we have a calm and dry few weeks and the water gets clean.

Went out to Calcasieu point on 4-19-18 and water was muddy. Doubt it was even 6" visibility and usually the water there is a good indication of what the water looks like on the north end of lake. Not always! I'm waiting for north end to clear up so I can get on some trout action

Cause they know how to fish!! I would fire a guide before I put foot on the boat if he has live bait!! I'm a sportsman, anybody can catch trout and redfish with live shrimp. I've never fished with that man but he's never lied to me when I call him. And I believe he will continue to if I don't crowd him or his customers!!

I might have took his reply as smart butt the way I read it. I didn't mean no offense to anyone that wants to use bait, it is just not my go to until I have tried everything I can. And don't mind going home empty handed trying to learn a new presentation of lures. I ment no disrespect to anyone that does. Cuz I have at times used bait.

Honestly thought I missed something. Idk if my computer or site but at times it just kicks me out and then I miss PMs. No biggie at all here I have good friends that don't put live or dead bait in their boats. I envy y'all that throw artificial all the time. I'm getting there! Tight lines all

I will however never step foot on a guideboat that starts off with bait. And there is a ton of them out there. With a few inclusions of the three or four that I know that help me when I haven't been down there in a while and they will not use bait until absolutely necessary. |

I am firmly rooted on team Ziplok. I'll throw an Oscar Myer hotdog on the bottom if it means catching fish. I don't think that makes me any less of a sportsman, it just makes me a lot hungrier than some of you guys!

I find it hard to believe someone that fished from youth has never put a hot dog on a hook. Desperate times call for hot dogs when you run out of bait.....lol.
For the record, they work good on noodles mixed with some Zote soap |
