April Fishing Report

We have had some tough weather and lots of wind to deal with this April but the fishing is good and when the the weather coperates the fish do too. On the windy days we have been limited to fishing redfish in the protected area's aand with good success. When the winds have been down the speckled trout fishing has been pretty good in the open lakes and deep passes. No live bait until next month so artificail titelined and under corks have been doing the job. May is just around the corner and taht is when things relly heat up and will just get better as the summer goes on.

SPRING FISHING STARTS UP IN HOPEDALE LA.

Yesterday Gary Stewart and Mike Naylor started off their fishing season off with a bang. The weather was beautiful all ,morning light breeze just enough to keep the bugs off. We started right off with some school trout under some birds to get us going. The bigger trout were on the shorelines and points with moving water. Chartreuse plastic and live minnows did the trick. The bite was not fast and you had to stay on the move but the guy’s had their limit of nice trout and 3 big reds for their first trip this season.
THE TROUT ARE STARTING TO BITE AND SHOULD ONLY GET BETTER!
