Bait has to figure out how to get into the net.

Agree alot of rain fell, BUT on thursday before the rain fell the lake was way up, i had to raise my boat in the slip to keep it from floating off! The hight tides pushed a ton of salt water in, but now there has to be a ton of fresh water heading south also, i'm going to head out this afternoon to check it out.

Salinity is still holding good at I-10.......... 12 to 14 now, would expect this to start dropping by morning.

Water level looks to be ~ above 1 foot above normal at I-10..... according to the Computer readings.

I see the chance of rain forecast going up by Friday from 10% to 30%. I wish it would hold off. I'm worried about clarity and too much fresh water. High water might also scatter the fish.

Regarding color, for early in the morning, what ya'll think about black/chartuese vs. glow/chartreuse?

I just bought a selection of those Brown's lures, devil eyes and no-eyes. Anybody try those with any success. The one's with the eyes are some kind of ugly.

[Ray]

I have used both the ones with eyes and without. They do well. I think the one with the eyes do better, but I never used them both on the same day.

Ray COME ON MAN.........I have not had one day to fish this hitch off and tomorrow was my only chance!!! WHAM 15-20mph winds!!!! That just aint right

[Ray]

I have too much to do tomorrow, but me and Gerald will be hittin' da lake Thursday.
I ain't skeert of no weather. Unless it is lightening.



Gerald, get ready for a bumpy ride. You remember the last time we fished the same day??? My luck ain't changing...

[Gerald]

I was looking at those big eyed bait in Acadamy a few days ago. Did not get any. While looking the fishing bait, a young employee asked if I needed any help. I found out that this was his first day working there.

I had just finished looking at the Norton Sand Ells on display. Ever since this past spring, I look to see if they have any of Glow/Chart Jr's for sale. I have about conluded that they don't ever order that bait. In the last 9 times I have been in the Lake Charles store....they have not had any.

Back to the employee...... I told him this same information, and told him he could make "points" with the boss it he would tell him about the Sand Ells and get them to stock some.

Gerald, I have both. You can try both and see for yourself. I will holler at you in a little while.
