Native Texan here, I was invited to the Pelican Roost down the in DLC for a military appreciation fishing trip a few years ago, had a blast and landed my biggest red to date. Enjoy the content. Tight lines Sir!
Went fishing down there a lot when I was a kid back in the late 70's & early 80's . My dad was good friends with old man Gene down in Shell Beach area . My dad & old man Gene has pass on a good while now but I always remember my awesome childhood memories there ! Thank you for the video upload.
Gene was Gene duden Heffer down Hopedale, he had a bait shop and launch. He was a very nice person and friend. His son Warren is continuing the business, but way better with guide services and more.
Love this channel, definitely gonna head over there. You posted this on my Bday. Great channel, miss seafood big time. Would love to work Ona crab boat. Watching from SW Arizona
Enjoyed the video. Gotta Love Louisiana. You catching fish on Main Street 😅. Thanks for sharing your videos with us. Keep them coming. We look forward to them.
ohh yall are down da road.. da island... me and my uncle used to run a lafitte skiff called the patricia marie out of there. brings back alot of cool memories,, thanks for the vid.
I used to walk up and down i10 on a soggy morning and I’d fill up a bucket full of crawfish. Things ain’t the same since Katrina but they still good ways to catch a dinner.
I'm from Louisiana but I fish all over the coast. Louisiana people are the only ones I know who won't eat those big drum lol. I know they can be wormy but I've seen them pick the worms out and cook it right up.
I had a neighbor down on Lake Geneva, just beside Keystone Heights, the little town. He showed me how to be cruel to little bream. I remember how he once caught a little bream and then, with the hook in it's mouth, he just started smacking that bream down on the water to kill it. I was shocked but at the same time I kind of picked up some of that. I am sure I was cruel like that too at times. I live in a state of sorrow for Lake Geneva because it pretty much DRIED UP. It was the greatest place in my youth. I learned to fish there. There were some lily ponds in places, natural grasses, buttonwood bushes -as we called them, coontail grass as my dad called it. When we bought the property around 1973 when I was 10, the lake was full and beautiful. We learned of how in the past the big lake used to be 7 lakes. Well, soon we found out how quick things could change. First, there was a fire at my dad's business in 75. Then my parents divorced around 1981. By 1981 the lake was going down FAST. Our lily pond in front of the house was all dried up, as were the canals to the left of us, down about two properties away. Dad remarried and that was the end of my fantastic days on Lake Geneva. The lake never came back. The lake is now just a bunch of ponds with lots of acreage now where the lake used to be. You could probably hunt some doves or quails if the law permitted it in that area. Who knows what lives where the water used to be. I had a short lived time of JOY living down in that area. We first rented houses on Lake Brooklyn in Keystone Heights. Then we bought property and built a house on the "big lake", Geneva. We should have bought property on the dark water lake of Santa Fe, which is fed by the Santa Fe river. It is dark water with Cypress trees all around it. It's scary dark water where any snake or gator could get you. So dad chose property on a clear water lake. My mom never cared much to be down at the lake house. She was too proper and didn't fish. And I never thought about it, but damn, my mom didn't want to fish. She was too prissy and couldn't handle fish or any of that.
Man I’m stuck in the middle of hot, dry Phoenix. I love seafood, I could live off it. I gotta pay an arm and leg for it and you out here just netting it! Lol
Me and my LSU classmates were going to Grand Isle for the weekend back in the 90's.. I called my buddy to find out where to fish. He said, "When you see that pelican hanging on the power lines, fish just past him and there is a deeper hole". We wore the Specks and Reds out standing on the bank.👍👍
I've been to South Louisiana. It's a watery place. Wherever I went in and around New Orleans, there are rivers, brooks, and canals everywhere. Of course, there's the mighty Mississippi River flowing through the city.
What you call Brim are a new species up here in the southern Great Lakes area. An guess what ! The lake trout love these things. I can let the word out now, because the serious lake trout fisherman, who fish bait rigs, have been using these for 20 years. Mostly I use them as cut bait , behind a flasher in deep water for freshwater lake trout. Not legal to transport them, however if they are in water system, we do what you’re doing. Catch a few on a small jig, or hook and bait.. cut them in half ,, there you go.
10:20 what is that wormy thing on your line, up above the shrimp? Is that a plastic worm being used as a bobber? What is that thing? Is that some sort of thing used in place of a cork to give you an indication of getting a bite? What is that? That said, I haven't had the pleasure of fishing in salt water much.
@@patrickgreen2361 Worms? I've seen tiny worms in bass down in Florida. I used to tell my dad about them and he didn't want to hear it. I was rather freaked out about the tiny worms I would see in the bass as I would fillet them. I was thinking, WORMS - OMG. I'm gonna eat that? My dad wouldn't talk about it. I didn't say anything more. My dad was like, don't think about it. It's not going to make you sick, or you won't know you at one. I don't know but I just knew that if it became an issue then we wouldn't be able to catch the bass for food again. I guess everyone else ate those small parasitic worms. They were small, about a 1/4 inch long. I would dig that sh!t out of any filet when I saw it. I was like, damn, a freaking worm!!
I can't wait to come back down and hit Hopedale and Delacroix. Last time I came I caught some good sheepshead and trout from the road in Hopedale. Do you have to know someone in order to fish by the loading docks cause I know alot of the areas are becoming private.
When ever I see flat water like that I always wonder if a top water lure'll have any success? The ditch looks bigger than some canals & I assume some large fish predators are there even if their in hiding
I don't fish salt or brackish water much at all, but I love how you let the big drum go. I don't know if you let it go because of a fishing law or simply to let it breed because it was a big one. If it was a big female, think of all the little ones she could lay. Any little male could always fertilize her eggs. This is a reason I hate catfish gigging, or grabbing them out of their spots in the bank. Those people are only KILLING all the breeders, killing the future populations. I F'ing hate people who catch everything they catch. And I was raised that way. My dad only let little fish go. He'd keep any bass or fish that was big enough to eat. But then my dad grew up poor and the "catch and release" knowledge or practice wasn't much of a thing when I was young.
Really, a huge fish being a disappointment to catch. A big nasty? I need some clarification on why the the big fish are nasty? I guess I should google this to find out. I don't want to wait for weeks or a month to find out. It's nice to let the big breeders go but understanding that they are not desirable to eat is being left out of the conversation. They should explain to the rest of them why the big ones are being called big nasties.

Fun with Uncle Wimpy is always a good time. Can anyone fish there or do you have to know somebody?
Have to ask Mr CJ Wimpy knows him
I don't feel sorry at all, but I am a little jealous. 😅
Really loving the channel. How far inland are you to have fresh and saltwater fish?

Which part of Louisiana yll from? New subcriver

I live in Alabama and in Alabama there is no creel or size limit on drum
This be cool to go fishing at the spell way with the gators
Great video Jared... are the big-uns illegal, or just don't taste good??
Bigums are full of worms.

We call this technique Free Linining out here in the East Coast
Check in for all my fellow south Louisianans
I can't wait to come back down and hit Hopedale and Delacroix. Last time I came I caught some good sheepshead and trout from the road in Hopedale. Do you have to know someone in order to fish by the loading docks cause I know alot of the areas are becoming private.
That's the spot... Lol
The Good Life .........
What is laying to the right beside that tire in the ditch behind your left shoulder.?
Oh everglades is really 👍
When ever I see flat water like that I always wonder if a top water lure'll have any success?
The ditch looks bigger than some canals & I assume some large fish predators are there even if their in hiding
I know that freshwater drums are edible, but what do they taste like? Never had one before.
These are saltwater black drum
mmmmLOVE IT
Isnt this where blue gabe and beachy caught those massive drums in that one vid by the carb place
I don't fish salt or brackish water much at all, but I love how you let the big drum go. I don't know if you let it go because of a fishing law or simply to let it breed because it was a big one.

What kind of fish was that big kne you released?
9:55 is uncle wimpy Burton kidder?
What pound line were you using and what was the rod
What was that fabulous stilt house at 8:15
where r u in south la? I grew up in Poydras.
UP NORTH WE CALL THOSE DRUM SHEEPHEAD!!
NOT THE SALT WATER ONES WITH THE STRIPES!! FRESHWATER DRUM WE CALL SHEEPHEAD
Is the Drum you catch like Cole and Daniel? They say they are trash fish. Very mushy meat and dont eat them
I guess we ain't gonna see ya fishing through a hole in the ice!
Has it really changed to that you can’t keep brim in a cast net I remember when I lived there you use to throw the net for brim and bait fish
When the black drum or real big they are full of worms and we don’t eat.
Like your video's but aren't those canals open to the gulf and not roadside ditches?🤔🤔
What state and where are you fishing?
Are those big drum eatable?
Really, a huge fish being a disappointment to catch. A big nasty? I need some clarification on why the the big fish are nasty? I guess I should google this to find out. I don't want to wait for weeks or a month to find out. It's nice to let the big breeders go but understanding that they are not desirable to eat is being left out of the conversation.

Is that brackish water
I have yet too catch Drum or red I'm in pursuit for real
Are these fresh water drum?
No they are saltwater black drum
Is there a problem with big drum and that’s why you put them back?
Because the big ones are full of big worms in them. No one here really eats them.
It hurts my heart to see you releasing those fish. Wish I was where you are. So I can get those fish.
Big black drums they are full of big worms in them that’s why he releases them. No one here eats them.
I do not feel sorry for you I envy you!
