[RaginCagin]

That seem weird.

A friend's parents house just flooded in New Iberia due to all the rain over here. About an hour ago they had a couple inches over the base boards.

[eman]

what kind of fish do ya'll catch back there. i ve been a couple times but never produced well. but i was bream fishing with crickets. i would like to know how to fish it cause its so close to the house i can bring my 8 yr old.

[simplepeddler]

I don't fish it to be honest......we've been back there five decades now so we have seen come and go.

We set out crab traps in the summer and that's about it for me.

Nah. I fished the heck out of that place when I first got here and never really produced too much anywhere on the river. Several folks local blamed the number of boats and nitrogen as the problem. They also were all waiting on a freshwater diversion/spillway that has yet to happen.

[duckman444]

that ain't happening no time soon. it would prolly be good for trot lines, but it ain't no good for rod n reeling
