Toss Up!!

[handyman]

First, This is my first post. I have heard about the site, and so far am impressed. The "other" site was getting to be like a kindegartner class.

Here Goes.
I am going Fishing tomorrow, I just don't know where. Should I go to Vermilion Bay/Weeks Bay area or make th drive to big lake? I have a 18' modified V with 90 etec. Real Wet boat, so I am trying to figure what will be better weather wise. I have a friend in from Kansas City who really needs to catch some fish...
Any Advice appreciated.

It may be a little windy on big lake...south end of the lake would be fishable or south end of west cove...water in west cove was a nice green color last Fri...

Definatley not the worst day to fish Big L

If you find a group of birds that hold, its on...

You know where the trash pile is : rotfl:

Good luck on getting that man some fish! The winds may not be that bad, but if I had to choose and only had tomorrow, I would do the V-bay thing and here's why.

Big Lake is mostly unprotected, so it can get ugly quick. At V-bay, at least you can go into Marsh Island and catch reds/flounder if the bay is choppy. I would try my best to get to the west side of the bay which would be protected and should hold some good water. Another reasons is the T-storms they are calling for. It is a lot closer to V-bay than Big Lake from Maurice if the T-storms crash your party. *Less gas and more beer drinking at The City Bar!* lol

Good Luck and let us know how you do!

They both look decent for tomorrow If you go to V. Bay you will probably have to go to the reefs outside...haven't been down there in a while so do really know though

Thats Funny D. We fished the Trashpile and Weeks Bay Earlier in the week and Caught a few Reds and Flounder. I went out of intracoastal City yesterday and we got hammered. Tomorrow is his last day so I am willing to risk the $$$ if the fishing would be better.

Launch at Prien Lake and fish the marshes up there, or Cal. Point and fish the LNG canal. That might be pretty well protected. Or launch at the Jetties in Cameron and fish the calm side of the rocks.

Where is Prien Lake.... or Cal Point....Is this near Lake Charles?
