Had a great time the last few days with two different groups withe the TROUT TRAIN ROLLING in HOPEDALE LA. The guys had a blast loading up on some really nice Speckled Trout along with some Reds, Drums and Flounder. Most fish caught on live shrimp and croaker under corks early and carolina rig later in the morning. The reds and drums are all over the interior lakes just fish the shoreline points with some moving water. Dead or live shrimp 1-2 ft under a cork wil do the job.
