Windy day, windy week equals dirty water out of Delacroix this morning. My guests were ready to catch so we hit an inside honey hole on the way outside. The water was decent and we proceeded to work on the reds, flounder, trout, drum and sheepshead. Nothing too big, but no need to measure either. These fish wanted live shrimp 2-3' under corks. The incoming tide played out and so did the bite. We headed out to the outer bays to a couple of more redfish holes to find dirty water. Redfish do not seem to mind as we worked on them with live/dead shrimp under corks. We even chased down a redfish break off along the bank and grabbed the leader under the cork for the unconventional free line catch of the day. We saw a few flocks of seagulls working, but did not try them. If the wind will lay for a day or two, the water will get time to settle out and the fish are there for the catching. Good luck out there this week!Captain Jeff J. DauzatFin and Feather Guide Service(504)818-2176www.finandfeatherguides.com
