The first week in December is a wrap! The weather
has still been tough and Venice has been muddy , so we moved up the road to Empire to fish. The fishing has been good there in the shallow bays and creeks. I have been able to guide my clients to some nice upper slots and bull red fish. The fishing should get better as winter settles in.

Back again with a windy report! The wind has still been pumping. We seem to be having a weather year for sure in South east Louisiana . I moved from fishing Venice to Empire due to the water getting muddy from the wind and not wanting to fish the same old places . The  fly fishing in Empire has been good for all sizes of red fish . We just got our first blast of cold weather so things should change for the better.

The wind has been relentless to say the least in south east Louisiana . The whole coastline from Hopedale down to Venice has been hammered  with strong south east winds. The winds are making a lot of the areas we fish really muddy. With that being said we are still able to catch some great fish in the shallow grass areas and on wind blown flats that have clean water on them. I have dates open from Jan-April.

The weather has finally calmed down for 7 days now. The fishing from Hopedale , Port Sulphur and Venice have been on fire . We have been catching Jack's and big red fish. Ive been on tailing reds and big floaters in current where there are passes dumping out. When you can get the sun and wind to line up guiding clients to big fish gets real easy. If you come to New Orleans get a guided  fishing  trip to the mashes of South East Louisiana!

The fishing today in Venice was tough. The post frontal winds were cranking and that really made the water dirty. My clients that I'm guiding are new to the sport so we were using spin gear to today. We were able to catch several nice Bull Reds. Sometimes when the weather gets bad in South East Louisiana you have to change the way you play the game .

It was another great day in South east Louisiana . The fishing in Venice has been good. Today we had lots of wind and battled clouds but we were able to catch some good  Red fish on Fly. I had to get really shallow to be able to see and the water is cleaner as well. I think the fall is going to be really great!

We had another great day in Venice Louisiana . We started the day fishing at an out flow of a pass that flows into the Gulf Of Mexico. I posted the boat up on the corner of the marsh and the red fish were floating by. We were able to catch one fish after another until the mud moved in. I then went into shallow ponds and my client was able to site fish in less than a foot of water .If you are coming to New Orleans then you should try to get on the water with me . Nothing like South East Louisiana!

The Red fishing was great today in Venice Louisiana. The weather was sunny and calm and the fish were floating . We also had some great shots at jacks as well. Its hard to beat South East Louisiana !
