Hopedale, Louisiana - Saltwater Fishing Report
Wednesday 3-3-08
First morning after a cold blast had the fish in a not bite mood. But the Bromely family Steve, Becky and Jeff 88yrs old were out to fish and enjoy the day. I fished every place and then some that I had caught trout the last 3 trips without a bite. 10:00 ZERO fish in the box. Changed tactics and went after the Bull reds with the market bait. Things started to turn, Becky landed the first and second bull and dad pulled in a nice drum but that was it. Headed to the marsh to try the reds at the points and it worked. Picked up 2 more Bulls filling the limit along with 2 smaller reds. Then we found some drums and a few heads to work on filling the box. The weather turned out beautiful and we fished hard all day and made a nice box of fish for the Bromely’s to take back home to Pensacola to grill.
4 BULL REDS LIMIT
6 Drums
1 Flounder
1 Sheep head
1 Trout
