Since Ida destroyed Lafitte there hasn't been hardly any grass. What areas did you fish to find all that grass? Good job w the high camera angle bc most everyone else just does a chest view and it's the same old videos
I was fishing around the oil canals south of the pen. Agree though, Lafitte has been the hardest hit area I’ve fished since the storm and it’s been a struggle to find grass. PAC probably the second hardest hit. Thank you for watching, I’m hoping I can find some clean water to really see the redfish with the high angle!
Yeah when I’m deep in the marsh I can usually get away with straight braid. When I fish speckled trout or am in cleaner water I will have to fish a flouro or mono leader
I appreciate the feedback, most of the fights are longer but are edited down. I will consider adjusting my editing style in the future to show more of the fight!
Yeah I like to fish ponds in the summer just because I like being up close and personal with them haha. I’ll back out to the bigger lakes and bays in the fall/winter when water levels are lower and it’s tough to get deep in the ponds
Great video and fishing. What's the draft on your boat. You in some skinny.
Thank you! I would estimate it's somewhere around 6-9" of draft, I probably push it to the limit though haha
Whenever I fish down there I very seldom have to measure a red. I catch most them on a gold spoon. It’s easy to work around the grass.
Great videos man. Love the channel. Just ordered matrix craws because of these vids. See if they work as good in Texas
Thank you! Let me know how they work out there!

Are you fishing straight braid?

Nice! How can I contact you? I have some gear I'd like to send you, I think it could really help out in that grass.
Awesome thank you! Easiest way to contact me is via email, tyhillman@icloud.com
Power fishing is ok for some in bass and reds. I like more of a fight jerking them into boat not my thing.

I have never really fished deep into the pods like you are here. I normally fish the coastline of a lake like little lake etc.
