R J, what's happenin? How's the wife? How's the Job?
I managed one hunt last year, fuel at 3.85 kept me in check along with that 22 hour round trip drive. Guess I'm gonna have to start hunting marsh hens

Maybe we'll keep low fuel prices and have some water this year along the rivers? If you make it up to the delta I have a couple of public honey holes I can share with ya now that I don't rely on them anymore
You should give Mark a call and get on that boat with him while the fishing is hot, we had an absolute blast.... I fish these east coast marhes year round, and it doesn't have anything on LA. Mark was complaining about the tide moving too fast, I didn't even notice it. I'm fishing 6-9 foot tides here

, with the wrong wind conditions it looks like huge white water rapids.... Imagine that in the ole duck boat !! Man I need that upgrade.
I would have to take a wild guess here and say we stuck 60, maybe more, trout over the weekend. And, saw hundreds of reds in the marsh. Stuck quite a few of those, spooked out five times as many, but landed maybe 9 or ten. It was the fist time I have ever climbed up on a four foot platform in the front of a boat and literally picked out the fish you wanted; the rod is more like a gun than a fishing pole in this scenario. Just awesome!!
shoot me an email sometime, "first Name"."last Name"@live.com we can try to work a hunt in over Christmas or the first or second weekend in January. Maybe the ole Tallahatchie will have water this year?
