Our team-member Chris Williams had a morning off from a business trip in Panama City, FL and decided to try his hand at kayak fishing … needless to say, he had an absolute blast and hooked some stunners.
Tournament stop number two for the team is the Inshore Fishing Association’s Louisiana Division in Venice, LA. Venice is the heart of the offshore fishing industry in Louisiana. It is one of the neatest places I have ever had the opportunity to fish. It’s a place where you can fish a stretch of shoreline and catch saltwater fish like a redfish then make one turn on the shoreline and catch large-mouth bass.
Chris and teammate Kirk head to Golden Meadow/Lafitte, LA for some redfish tournament pre-fishing. They encountered high, muddy waters, but made the best of it.
Between the super-moon we have been having and the Mississippi River rising so high above normal, the fish have become a bit spooky. There is a major influx of freshwater filtering through the marsh and redfish are getting harder to …
If you’re after some big bull redfish, then here’s your chance. All over the gulf coast from Pensacola, FL to Panama City, FL big bull redfish are coming in droves. These things get to be upward of 40-50 lbs and will strip a reel of line in a quick second. So you better pack a big reel, a sturdy rod and preferably a boat.
Our tournament was scheduled to be on Friday, November 5th and Saturday, November 6th, 2010. But, unfortunately, the weather was so bad Friday that they had to postpone the tournament ’till Saturday and Sunday. So my partner (Kirk) and I decided to head to our spots to nail down a game plan for the tournament.
Well, I fished an Inshore Fishing Association Redfish Tournament yesterday in Cocodrie, Louisiana….
