With the weather warming up, Lake Verret is a great option for a day on the water. Water conditions aren’t optimal, with murkiness being the rule right now, but that hasn’t stopped the bass and bream bite, LouisianaSportsman.com’s Andy Crawford discovered yesterday (March 25)[…]

Well, with deer season over, I turned most of my attention toward fishing. Dad and I made a trip down to Halter’s Island and caught a few reds.[…]

Last weekend my buddy Jimmy Kyle and I took the 100-mile drive to Sherburne Wildlife Management Area to do some scouting for the end of this bow season. We spent a day and a half scouting, and really not finding much sign until we had gone fairly deep into the woods.[…]
The last two weeks, the deer have started moving again – somewhat anyway – at the Atchafalaya Delta WMA. I saw 14 deer in that time period, had a couple of “almost” shots, passed on a big cow-horned spike, but nothing too serious until late last week.[…]

A couple of weeks ago, my dad, my buddy Randy and I made an afternoon hunt down at the Atchafalaya Delta WMA. It was a very cold afternoon with the temperature dropping rapidly as the light of day faded. After an uneventful hunt, we all made our way back to the boat to begin the 50-minute ride back to the Berwick boat landing.
We laughed at the fact that frost was forming on our bow cases, something you don’t normally see at that time of day. Soon, however, our laughter would stop, as an event would unfold that you should hope never happens.[…]
Well, since we last talked, a number of big bucks have been taken down at the Atchafalaya Delta Wildlife Management Area. I have seen pictures and talked with one of the game wardens, so these are not just stories.[…]
David Pizzolato hunched down on the front deck of his Xpress boat with a 10-foot Salter’s jig pole in his hand. The black Bass Assassin Tiny Shad swung back toward the line holder as he lifted the rod tip toward the air.[…]
This weekend is the last chance for recreational anglers to enjoy a special red snapper season, which opened in state and federal waters on Oct. 1, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries said in a news release.[…]
It was an eventful week that saw the Big Island open after being closed for the October youth hunt. We also got some cooler weather, and the deer were definitely on the move.[…]
The outlook for fishing the Basin this fall looks good barring any late-season storms. Two years ago, Gustav churned things up, and also left debris that ultimately led to fish kills as a result of hypoxia.[…]
We had a good time down at the Atchafalaya Delta WMA opening weekend. Beautiful, cool, clear, dry, breezy hunting conditions greeted us all.[…]
To the east, an orange ball glowed just above the horizon through the cypress and tupelo trees in the backwater areas of the basin. […]
