Hopedale, Louisiana - Saltwater Fishing Report
breton sound
Carol Canton setup this trip to coincide with hers friends Joe and Jennifer’s visit to New Orleans from California. The weather looked good so I headed straight for the sound armed with Campo shrimp and croaker. Things started slow very little tide and only 2 trout after 4 stops. But things picked up we found some nice trout biting slow with the shrimp under corks and that was the pattern for the day, catch some and move. With a nice box of trout ob ice Jenny was ready for redfish. I headed for some islands and first cast Jenny was hooked up with a 29 inch bronze brute. Jenny caught almost all the reds once she mastered the technique of “reel to you feel and set the hook”. We had a great day and nice box of fish and hit the dock just ahead of the rain.
41 Trout
