Fishing trip Venice, Louisiana

[Jimmy Riggin]

I've been asked by several people to see Jimmy's pictures from his trip to Louisiana. So hopefully this works. Not bad for a first time. They took the striper down for the haul and gave it a whirl. Looks and sounds like they had a great time.

Your resort puts theirs to shame though....I won't post those pictures. LOL

Maybe the resort in Mexico was better... but son of gun, looks like Jimmy had some fun down on the Bayou!

I think mine were smaller @oldcutmarina and a Mexican hooked two of them for me and handed me the rod!

I went on the trip with Jimmy and it was truly amazing,for the first time fishing the area we were on the fish the whole time,navigating the Mississippi in zero visability fog was certainly a challenge,but had full confidence in Capt Jimmy, hope to be invited again , We will be going with much larger equipment next time, sure gave the Shimano Tekotas a work out

Where did you buy your minnow,s........ha

 

[Jimmy Riggin]

Jim, no it will never be the same.
Brian, we are fine tuning the details...hoping to offer a 6 night package with 4 days of fishing in March and April 2016.
Ryan, not as awesome as the pictures you got of Allen this year in net though. We are framing a bunch of them, thanks again!
Chefboyardee, it was the first time for me having crawfish and they were tasty. We didn't get any redfish, but we only did offshore fishing.
Not sure the names of the rigs we were fishing at and around, but we were out 65 miles.
Blackdog, The bigger the bait the bigger the catch. haha Ps. We have lots of minnows in stock still...
