Now, but that's where I'm from, and to 338 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 3: consider itself a Cajun, and Cajun is from uh the 339 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 3: original French speaking people that came from Nova Scotia down 340 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 3: to South Louisiana. They referred to them as as Cajun. 341 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 3: And when I was coming up, it was an idea 342 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 3: of ours to learn how to speak French simply because 343 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 3: we could crack the code. Because my mother talked to 344 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 3: everybody in French, and if we didn't learn French, we 345 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 3: wouldn't know how to what she was saying. I never 346 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 3: was able to crack the crowd. I took two years 347 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 3: of French. And well, how'd your mom know it? She 348 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 3: grew up actually speaking French as a younger person. She 349 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 3: was from French nationality. She was a villaery from New 350 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 3: Oallenge and uh, my triple great grandfather was actually a 351 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 3: governor of the state of Louisiana and he lived in 352 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 3: on a plantation just outside of New Oallenge. And but 353 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 3: she grew up speaking French. My grandmother spoke French, and 354 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 3: she actually taught French for a little while, and she 355 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 3: was a teacher for. 356 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 4: A good while, and then it died with you. 357 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 3: I can get myself out of a buy and put 358 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 3: it up. 359 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: Do you do you use all the all the fish 360 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: names and duck names in French? 361 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 4: Still no, not really? 362 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 3: Uh. But the hardest thing I had to learn in French. 363 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 3: My first laboratory retrieval was was trained by occasion just 364 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 3: outside of New Iberia, and he trained a dog in French. 365 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 3: And I had to learn to command in French and 366 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 3: the God's truth and. 367 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: Give me a couple, give me a came here, come 368 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: he is. 369 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 3: Let me see the goddamn you. Now you put me 370 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,120 Speaker 3: on the spot. You're talking about something that happened forty 371 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 3: years ago, fifty years ago. 372 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 4: Dog dead anyway, never mind that dog. 373 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 3: Has come here in French. But uh it the heritage 374 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 3: of we loved to cook. I grew up learning how 375 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 3: to cook. I probably started cooking when I was about 376 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 3: six or seven years old. Huh and uh we had 377 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 3: this I would call a part of our family, this 378 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 3: woman that used to cook for my family for all 379 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 3: anything that we had, cooked dinners every night. But she 380 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 3: taught me when I know how to cook. And the 381 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 3: first thing that I ever cooked was wild duck. Oh really, 382 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 3: And it was because I loved the way she did it. 383 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 3: And when I was ten years old and nine years old, 384 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 3: whenever I first thought it, that was the first dish 385 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 3: that I cooked, and I pride myself on cooking duck. Today, 386 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 3: I'm not much of a of a duck hunter as 387 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 3: much as I used to be. I used to be 388 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 3: mad at him. But then when we first started the marina, 389 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 3: we actually did guiding services and I had five ab 390 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 3: boats taking out people. We advertised on ducks unlimited to 391 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: come down and fish the Mississippi Flyway and Venice had 392 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 3: a fantastic duck population. 393 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: Well, so you were running you used to be. I 394 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: don't know you were a duck guide, not by choice. 395 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 3: Okay, it's a I'm gonna give you a truth story 396 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 3: on that we were. I was duck hunting in it 397 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 3: the last year that I did it. I couldn't get 398 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 3: enough guides to work for me to do it, and 399 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 3: I was running my construction company and a marina at 400 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 3: the same time. So did I have time to be 401 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 3: a duck gud? 402 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: No? 403 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 3: And I wasn't the best call in the world either, 404 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 3: But it was by the theftic we didn't have enough 405 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 3: people to go around, so I ended up doing it. 406 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 3: And I hunted twenty nine days straight morning and evening. 407 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 3: And I came in one night. We had just finished 408 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 3: cleaning all the ducks. 409 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 4: We had. 410 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 3: Everything was finished up and prepared, and you guys are 411 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 3: picking ducks. Yeah, we had duck bluckers, though I did 412 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 3: buy a duck blucker. 413 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 1: That worked extremely well. 414 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 4: What kind did you have? 415 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 3: I don't remember. 416 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 4: What's the kind I want to get? 417 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: Yanni you know that. 418 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: You Yeah, my brother in law got the foul plucker. 419 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never seen one, but Yannie sent me a 420 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 1: video of one, and the minute I saw it, I 421 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: was like going to get one of those. 422 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 3: This is a commercial one and I guarantee you can 423 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 3: clean the duck in about a minute. Man, it's done. 424 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 3: But the only nasty work that you have there is 425 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 3: to gut it. 426 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 1: Did you run a new problem if the duck was wet? 427 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the biggest problem is the early season ducks. 428 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 3: You still have the pin feathers. 429 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 4: Sure, I think that things. 430 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 3: That's a pain anywhere. You know. There's nothing you can 431 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 3: do with those, but just go ahead and send them. Well. 432 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: Early seeds like the youth season, we started just skinning 433 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: our ducks. He pluck them. There's no skin anyway, It's 434 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: all full pin feathers, just the bomber. 435 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 3: But if I'm the one that's going to cook the ducks, 436 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 3: I don't want them skin. I want that skin on it. 437 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 3: That's where the flavor is. But we had been hunting 438 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,360 Speaker 3: that many days, and I had a friend of mine 439 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 3: that was staying on my house boat and he had 440 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 3: cooked supper for us, and he and I grew up 441 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 3: duck hunting together. And I came in walking that night 442 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 3: and I was tired, I was wet, and I looked 443 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 3: like hell. And he looked at me, he says, my buddy, 444 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 3: He said, it's the hell of a thing to have 445 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 3: to hunt, because you got that right. And that was it. 446 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 3: I was done. I finished that year out and realized 447 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 3: in all of that operation, I'd killed myself for two 448 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 3: and a half months while duck season was going on, 449 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 3: and we made about four or five thousand dollars. Then 450 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 3: I said, look, I said, we can't deal with it. 451 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 3: The airboats were always breaking down, and I had guys 452 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 3: that were running airboats that shouldn't be running airboats, And 453 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 3: I mean that's a tricky situation, and you get put 454 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 3: somebody that don't know what they're doing. And I had 455 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 3: two air boats that you could put twelve people in 456 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: and four p rogues at the same time and get 457 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 3: up and run. You know, they was but the conditions there, 458 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 3: you couldn't run the mud boats because we got a 459 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 3: sandy salt at the moutha river. So it's just the 460 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 3: conventional mud boats that were in existence at that time 461 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 3: could not go through that sand. They just couldn't. Now 462 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 3: you got boats that'll do it. Now the surface drives 463 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 3: can get around pretty good. But it's a whole nother 464 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 3: ball game. And I guess that's what burnt me out 465 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 3: on duck hunt and I just I go, I at 466 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 3: least make a couple hunts a year, but it's pure 467 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 3: to go out there. And I tell her whoever I'm 468 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 3: going with, have whoever's hunting the day before, make sure 469 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 3: they got plenty of ducks. But I want to go 470 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 3: out to cook them. I'll go hunting and eat them. 471 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 3: And I said, that's it. I'll be ready to come 472 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 3: and go home. But we got great duck hunting down there, 473 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: but it's not as good as it used to be. 474 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: You know you gave me when we met what but 475 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: you gave me not dark, you gave me sword fish. 476 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 3: I gave you sword fish. That's correct. And I just 477 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 3: swd Yanni a pictured just a little while ago. 478 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 2: A couple of giants. 479 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 3: Of one of the boats that's going to be on 480 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 3: this fishing trip with us.

We got our own 608 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 3: niche that we're trying. 609 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 4: To not hacking, not hacking, just it's just you know, different. 610 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 2: Did we eat there Venezuna? 611 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 4: I think, whatever, what what happened? 612 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: I built that marine? 613 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 3: I built it and uh we were keeping our boat there. 614 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 3: Uh are designed and financed some boat houses there where 615 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 3: people were building like condos in the backside of it. 616 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 3: You could put your boat under cover, and Unit one 617 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 3: and two. When I built it, I said, these are 618 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 3: going to be for me. And then as we sold them, 619 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 3: I didn't get paid until we shold them, but we 620 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 3: told them all before they we were finished. So it 621 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 3: went very well, and we built twenty four of them 622 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 3: down there, and so I had Unit one and two. 623 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 3: And then the owners that of Louisiana Fruit Company, which 624 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 3: is a big land company down there. They owned about 625 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 3: eight or nine thousand acres down there. They came to 626 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 3: me and asked me if I would be interested in 627 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 3: owning and building a marina on their property. And I 628 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 3: had seen plans at their company office because my property 629 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 3: where my construction company was based, was on Louisiana Fruit 630 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 3: Company land. So he had showed me a couple times 631 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,959 Speaker 3: this dream of his to bill a marina and the 632 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 3: basin for the marina with an old bora pit. The 633 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 3: dirt that came out of that basin originally went to 634 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 3: build mainline Mississippi River levee. So he said, we want 635 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 3: to use this basin. We don't think that we'll have 636 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 3: a problem getting a permit for it because it's a 637 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 3: hole in the ground now, but it's got ridges and 638 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 3: cypress trees and willow trees all through it. It's a mess, 639 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 3: but it'd be a good starting point. And so I said, 640 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 3: you know, we want you to do it. And I said, 641 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 3: you know how, I'm vested into Venice Marina because I mean, 642 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 3: it was a friend of mine. And I said, but 643 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 3: at the same token, he said, don't you think that 644 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 3: we need another facility? I said, yeah, because Venice Marina 645 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 3: was filling up. I mean, it's just it was there 646 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,719 Speaker 3: and the fishing had got out that Venice was some 647 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 3: of the best fishing in the world. And I pride 648 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 3: myself and I believe that that it is one of 649 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 3: the best fishing bots in the United States for sure. 650 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 3: Oh dude, And I mean, listen, the variety is unreal. 651 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: I fished, Oh, I've been fortunate to do a bit. 652 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 4: Of angry. 653 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: Dude. There's nothing like it. 654 00:31:58,600 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 3: You're right in it. 655 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: And I mean, Alaska. I love Alaska. If I had 656 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: to pick between Louisiana Alaska, I'd go Alaska. This guy 657 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: have a lot of sentimental value there for doing fishing a't. 658 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it ain't the same thing. 659 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 3: And the thing is that the variety, man, that's a 660 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 3: true statement.

And 679 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 3: I turned those captains and owners luth and went up 680 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 3: to all of the captain the owners and I said, 681 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 3: give me three hundred dollars, give me three. 682 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 2: What do you do? 683 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 3: And I said, we do a catfish tournament.

And 687 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 3: you know, the the winning catfish was caught on a 688 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 3: jug line. He let it loose right up behind a 689 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 3: doc which is righted to begin into the first piers, 690 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 3: and he hit it on a rug line. He threw 691 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 3: it out there. 692 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 4: What do you have for bait?

And 695 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 3: the next thing I know, I see him sprinting down 696 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 3: the main dock. This catfish ate that bait and he's 697 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 3: taken off. And Heath had before the pass to go 698 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 3: out of the marina. He and I told him no boats, 699 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 3: so he's got to get it.

We got a fish on. 810 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 3: I said, that don't look like a shark, and I 811 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 3: don't think it's a tuner. And so I told my captain, 812 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 3: who was on the crew with us. I said, go in, 813 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 3: and I said, tell Sam to come out and catch 814 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 3: his thwordfish.

Two weeks later, a boat out 839 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 3: Orange Beach that is based in Venice, Louisiana, or based 840 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 3: in Louisiana. The owner actually lives in Lake Charles and 841 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 3: that's where the boat is documented from. They went out 842 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 3: and they went twelve for fourteen on blue maland and 843 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 3: three swords. Two weeks later in November. They don't leave. 844 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:44,879 Speaker 3: They're they're full time. And last year in October, we 845 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 3: broke the golf record on blue Maland. The original record 846 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 3: was caught out of Venice by a member of the 847 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 3: New Orleans Big Game Fishing Club, which we're going to 848 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,919 Speaker 3: have all the festivities at for the trip down now. 849 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,239 Speaker 3: It's caught by by the name of Linda Kerner.

They had a little freshkyet a 857 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,760 Speaker 3: hole on a wastecale if they're not. But the fish 858 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 3: actually drowned. It got tear wrapped, and so when they 859 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 3: come in backwards like that, they will drown and mauling 860 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 3: up allegics as well.

That is the only 937 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 3: thing that's different with it. It's the same two bed system, 938 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 3: but it does not have the microfridge in it. And 939 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 3: you know, we're looking at connecting rooms to where you 940 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:24,720 Speaker 3: actually can possibly have two bedrooms associated with the kitchen sweets. 941 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 3: That's something I'm looking at to do this summers they 942 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 3: had that. 943 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 1: And then when you were pulling together the guides for 944 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,919 Speaker 1: our trip, how did you. 945 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:38,240 Speaker 2: Who do you know and how. 946 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 1: Did you do all that? 947 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 2: Well? 948 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 3: Understand this we've got right now based on forty people 949 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:52,840 Speaker 3: per trip per group. I wanted to bring the quantity 950 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 3: of people per boat for inshore to only three. They 951 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 3: can take up to four, but only put three on 952 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 3: the boat to give a more opportunity to fish, And 953 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 3: the same thing goes with offshore. Offshore, you can take 954 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 3: up to six. I wanted to leave it to four. 955 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,359 Speaker 3: I want the people to go out and experience as 956 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 3: much as they can possibly do and catch as much 957 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:20,160 Speaker 3: as they possibly can catch. On the offshore fishing part 958 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 3: of it, you're going to find that some of these 959 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 3: people that maybe have never done it before but wanted 960 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 3: to do it maybe might be a bucket list item, 961 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 3: and the fact of being able to do it in 962 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 3: conjunction with you guys being down there, it's intriguing, you know, 963 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 3: it's exciting. It might be just like me. They might 964 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 3: want to get that book signed too. But the reality 965 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 3: is is that they're going to go out there and 966 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 3: they get into the tune are pretty hot and heavy. 967 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 3: It ain't gonna be long before they're gonna look at 968 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:50,440 Speaker 3: that captain. We had enough. I mean, it's not unusual 969 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 3: for a big tunea fish, they have three or four 970 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:55,440 Speaker 3: people before it finally gets on board because it wears 971 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 3: the mom it's tough. You're fishing in deep water, and 972 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 3: when a yellow fin come down and he wants to 973 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 3: go down, he's going down and he's gonna find the bottom. 974 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 3: He's looking for it for sure. And if he dives 975 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 3: down there and he gets tail wrapped and you got 976 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 3: a winching back up, it's a long, hard. 977 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 2: All right, technical fishing question. What prevents you? What's like, 978 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,360 Speaker 2: what's the weak part? What's the weak link in the 979 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 2: fishing system that doesn't allow you just to stop that 980 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 2: fish from pulling that maneuver. They hard hit it and 981 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 2: a tough so you can't just apply you. 982 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 3: You're limited to drag, okay, I mean you can only 983 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 3: put so much drag. You put too much on it. 984 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 3: Yeah you can. 985 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 1: You can lock it up. 986 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 2: He breaks it, you can't. 987 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 3: He breaks it, and then where you're at then okay. 988 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,879 Speaker 3: I see now in the early part of the year, 989 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 3: and a lot of people don't associate it with it. 990 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 3: It's always associated with the East coast. The bluefin move in. 991 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 3: Now you get attached to a bluefin, all bets off. 992 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 3: I mean it's the biggest bluefin that was caught in 993 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 3: the Gulf of Mexico, was caught out of Cypress Cove thousand. 994 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 3: I have a record on here what the bluefin was, 995 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,680 Speaker 3: and it was. It was actually a New Orleans big 996 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:22,839 Speaker 3: game boat that caught it. If it's a thousand, one 997 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty something pounds it. 998 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 1: Was caught on that's a valuable fish man. 999 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,439 Speaker 3: Not after it's caught. They fought that fish for about 1000 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 3: twelve and a half hours. 1001 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: Oh geez. 1002 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 3: Literally the adrenaline comes into the meat and they literally 1003 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 3: burned themselves out, all right. And that fish if when 1004 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 3: you see the fish markets buying bluefin tuna, they core 1005 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 3: it and they take it out and they're judging how 1006 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,319 Speaker 3: much fat quantity is in that fish. They lay that 1007 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 3: thing out and they're looking at it. When you see 1008 00:49:57,760 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 3: a fish that's been caught with a rodden reel that's 1009 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 3: been on the line for over twelve hours like that, 1010 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 3: it's black and the color of the meat and the 1011 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:10,439 Speaker 3: quality goes way down. It's full of adrenaline, it's strong tation. 1012 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 3: It's not anywhere near as good as the East Coast 1013 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 3: fish that are caught in one hundred and fifty two 1014 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 3: hundred feet of water. 1015 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 1: Then you got yourself a whole bunch of cantuna. 1016 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 3: What they do is they take those on the east 1017 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 3: coast and fishing in that shallow water, they take those 1018 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 3: one thirty reels, those one thirty class reels, and they 1019 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 3: gear them down even more, and so they cranking on 1020 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 3: that fish and it can't go down. 1021 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:35,360 Speaker 1: It can't. 1022 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 3: It doesn't have the three to four thousand feet to 1023 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 3: get away from. They're going down two hundred feet. They 1024 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 3: in the mud, all right, they can't go in, and 1025 00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 3: the boat can help you. You can back down on 1026 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,319 Speaker 3: that fish and you can have it sitting in the 1027 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 3: boat in ten to fifteen minutes. And now if you 1028 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 3: want to play the fight out, you can lessen the 1029 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 3: drag and you can go ahead and work it out 1030 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 3: to do that. And a lot of people do it 1031 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 3: for the sport, but if they are commercially fishing in them, 1032 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,879 Speaker 3: they want them in the boat as quick as they 1033 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 3: possibly get it, because they want to look at that 1034 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 3: core and they want to see the fat content. They 1035 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:07,879 Speaker 3: don't want that adrenaline to burn it. 1036 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:08,400 Speaker 4: Up to wear it. 1037 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 3: The meat is not as tasty as it would be 1038 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 3: if it's caught quickly. 1039 00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:13,840 Speaker 4: How big is your red fish on. 1040 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:16,359 Speaker 2: Foot long? 1041 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 5: Maybe it was a record for that day. 1042 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 1: On those redfish. One thing that blew my mind is 1043 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:36,439 Speaker 1: when you're fishing in shallows, like inshore fishing for red fish. 1044 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 1: You see in like onesies, twosies, little groups diving down 1045 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: on some of those offshore rigs out there, like rigs 1046 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,359 Speaker 1: that are in thirty five feet. Sometimes you dive down 1047 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: to the bottom on those rigs and it's it's hundreds 1048 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: of red fish. 1049 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:52,879 Speaker 3: That's right. 1050 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 1: I had no idea, Like you know, like there's certain 1051 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: fish you associate with where you happen to see them, 1052 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 1: but it's not really where they are. Like when someone 1053 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: pointed out like bonefish, bofish don't live on the flat. 1054 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: Bonefish go on to a flat, Like, yeah, permit don't 1055 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 1: live on a flat. Yeah, they go up on a flat. 1056 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 1: I remember one day we saw a big permit you know, 1057 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: on a reef and it went into a hole, it 1058 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 1: went into a cave, and I said to my body, 1059 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, that's so weird. He goes, that's not weird. 1060 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,960 Speaker 1: It's weird is when you see him on a flat. Yeah, 1061 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:26,279 Speaker 1: Like they visit the flats now and then so to 1062 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 1: go like out deeper and see like, oh, that's really 1063 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: herpid and redfish. 1064 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 4: Man you can't. You can't shoot them. 1065 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:39,320 Speaker 3: And the thing is that that redfish, I mean, I 1066 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,839 Speaker 3: don't know people realize just how big they get. But 1067 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 3: the state wrecked and Louisiana sixty one pounds. 1068 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 1: That's a big red fish. 1069 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, man, I never said anything like that. 1070 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 3: That is no child. 1071 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 2: That's a lot of fun right there. 1072 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's a blast. And the thing is that that's 1073 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 3: not your most tasty as fish anyhow. And now the 1074 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 3: new Louisiana regulation they don't allow you to keep the 1075 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 3: bullredch anymore. Now that has just been agreed upon and 1076 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 3: voted on by the legislatures. I don't know exactly what 1077 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:15,120 Speaker 3: day it goes into effect, but it's pretty soon. But 1078 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 3: the big red fish, that's not your best eat of fish. 1079 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:22,280 Speaker 3: It's not. But it is a blast to catch. People 1080 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 3: need to experience that one time in your life. To 1081 00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,880 Speaker 3: those big fish. And I mean, you don't know, you 1082 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,360 Speaker 3: think you're attached to a rocket. You don't know it 1083 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 3: you got on that because your average rod and reel 1084 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 3: that you're going be fishing for red fish is probably 1085 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 3: carrying twenty pound test line, you know, and it's a 1086 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 3: small bait cassie or spinning reel, you know, and then 1087 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:44,400 Speaker 3: all of a sudden you get hooked to one of those. 1088 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 3: You wish you had one of those big one thirties 1089 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,879 Speaker 3: that they're doing with bluefen. I mean, that's why hard 1090 00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 3: is gonna pull. It's not. 1091 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:54,319 Speaker 2: I always say, if that fish jumped, it would be 1092 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:58,080 Speaker 2: the number one game fish in our waters, the one 1093 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 2: I've ever the best fish. It just it just doesn't 1094 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 2: show itself, which is why other fish like the tarpa 1095 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 2: and and others kind of get more lime, right. I 1096 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 2: mean a redfish sometimes it can be like a bonefish. 1097 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 2: You know, you get into him, You're like, oh, this 1098 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,279 Speaker 2: is a monster, and you get him in and he's 1099 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:18,680 Speaker 2: only sixteen inches long, but they just pull and pull. 1100 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:22,080 Speaker 3: But that's healthier red fish. You can have a smaller 1101 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 3: red fish that's coun fight more than a bullt. It 1102 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 3: just depends on the fish. Just like us, we're not equal. 1103 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:32,919 Speaker 3: I damn sure it can't keep up with y'all. I'm 1104 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 3: sure you did. 1105 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:38,920 Speaker 2: Let's talk about the other species. Let's hit offshore first. 1106 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 2: We talked about there's marlin opportunities, tuna opportunities. 1107 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 1: Offshore. 1108 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 3: You're gonna be looking what those guys are gonna be targeting. Foremost, 1109 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 3: it's gonna be yellowfin tuna, but with yellowfin tuna and 1110 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 3: fishing with live bait because that's what they're gonna be 1111 00:54:56,960 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 3: fishing with. And it's to what bait they're going to 1112 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,279 Speaker 3: be using at that time. It depends on what the 1113 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 3: fish are eating. I mean, these gods know, all right, 1114 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 3: certain times a year you got different things. It might 1115 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 3: be threadfinn herring right that they might be using. They 1116 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:18,399 Speaker 3: might be using live pogy. It just varies. They may 1117 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 3: be using chum and dead bait. It might be dead pogish. 1118 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 3: It depends on what they're hitting. These fish come close. 1119 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 3: A couple of things, especially in October. One is the 1120 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 3: mullet run. When the mullets start running on the coast, 1121 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,839 Speaker 3: those blue those yellow fin come in close, all right, 1122 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 3: and so they're after the bait, and they're also after 1123 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 3: the pogy poga fish, which is man Haden proper name 1124 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,000 Speaker 3: for it. But they come in and they're big schools. 1125 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:48,520 Speaker 2: Now. 1126 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 3: Sometimes the taste of the meat varies because of what 1127 00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:56,840 Speaker 3: they're eating. You know. We've found that happening with kobia, 1128 00:55:57,320 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 3: all right. You catch a kobia off the coast of Florida, 1129 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 3: which is slowly dwindling. They're trying to figure out what's 1130 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 3: happened to them, But you don't catch them like they 1131 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,439 Speaker 3: used to, and they did at all sight fishing. And 1132 00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:13,320 Speaker 3: as those pogi were run, I mean of the kobe 1133 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,839 Speaker 3: were running along the beach. But those fish over there 1134 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 3: are not eating poke with whom they get off the 1135 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:22,440 Speaker 3: coast of Louisiana. That's what they primarily eating. The flavor 1136 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:26,360 Speaker 3: of the meat changes, so what they're using to debate 1137 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,399 Speaker 3: is what the fish is going to be eating at 1138 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 3: that time. So you're going to have the opportunity in 1139 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:35,840 Speaker 3: October the offshore on the offshore day, people are gonna 1140 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 3: the goals of target target yellowfin tuna yah by catch 1141 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 3: for that blue malling absolutely the most blue mall on 1142 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 3: that were caught by the Charlie boats while they were 1143 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:51,960 Speaker 3: fishing for yellowfin tuna in October, I mean that is 1144 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 3: when they caught the most blue malling. You had them 1145 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 3: both catching two and three a day, you know, which 1146 00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:00,040 Speaker 3: is that's not what they're targeting, but they got it. 1147 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:01,000 Speaker 1: What about wahoo? 1148 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:04,400 Speaker 3: Wahoo are definitely good at that time of year as well. 1149 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:08,280 Speaker 3: And my mind, all dolphin we referred to them as dolphin, 1150 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 3: but it's not flipp on all right, it's it's a 1151 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:14,040 Speaker 3: mami or dorado, all different names, but those are the 1152 00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:17,000 Speaker 3: ones that you're gonna be. They're gonna target yellow fin. 1153 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 3: But in order to target yellow fin, this is gonna 1154 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 3: be what we call bycatcher.

But red fish, 1188 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 3: speckled trout, that's this time of the year. The speckled 1189 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 3: trout are running in the river because what happens the 1190 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 3: river is that it's lowest point in October and it 1191 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:12,960 Speaker 3: turns green. I mean you're gonna catch deep water, salt 1192 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 3: water fish in the river. So red fish have been 1193 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 3: known during the month of October and November to go 1194 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:22,560 Speaker 3: as far as New Orleans in the road. I mean 1195 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:27,400 Speaker 3: it's not unusual, and it's been so bad it's good 1196 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 3: for fishing, it's horrible for our water systems because all 1197 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 3: of our water to intakes come out of the Mississippi River, 1198 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 3: and so we got desalination machines on our water plant 1199 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 3: in Venice to be able to take care of the 1200 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 3: salt you know, the regular water plant. Now, when the 1201 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 3: river is running and you got primarily fresh water, but 1202 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 3: what happens that swalt water rides on top. The fresh 1203 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 3: water is heavier, so it gets up on top. But 1204 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 3: when that salt water moves in like that, does speckled 1205 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 3: trout move in? And I mean we'll catch speckled trout 1206 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 3: fantastically right there where the jump goes into the river. 1207 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 3: That's where Tiger Pass meets meets the Mississippi River. I 1208 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 3: mean you'll see boats all lined up in there right 1209 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 3: around that curve where that water's going into it. Those 1210 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 3: specultraut of there. And this year has been one of 1211 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 3: the best year ever because we had an extremely large 1212 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 3: amount of thought water, so much to the point that 1213 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,960 Speaker 3: the city of New Orleans was very concerned about their 1214 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 3: water systems and they will lay in water lines from 1215 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:34,959 Speaker 3: north of the city bringing water out of the river 1216 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 3: to their system to be able to convert it to 1217 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 3: clean drinking water from five ten miles north of the 1218 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,960 Speaker 3: city had pipelines running down the side just to bring 1219 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 3: Mississippi water. It wasn't it wasn't fresh water, goup it. 1220 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 3: They have to go further up to be able to 1221 01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 3: get clean water. But so in that you're going to 1222 01:00:57,480 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 3: catch black drum, which there is no limit on that. 1223 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 3: Speckled trout is that we've just reduced it to fifteen 1224 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 3: per person. Flounder does not have a limit, but the 1225 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 3: season is closed from October fifteenth to sometime in late November. 1226 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 3: Got it all right, And that's just been in the 1227 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:25,000 Speaker 3: last few years.

Well, I thought maybe I might beat 1398 01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 3: a problem. I'm not real sure yet. I'm not going 1399 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:40,839 Speaker 3: to admit to it yet. But no, we've been together 1400 01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 3: a while.

And we 1406 01:09:57,760 --> 01:10:04,040 Speaker 3: built the balls in and my barbecue pit built it 1407 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:06,280 Speaker 3: right there with my my welders. That worked for me 1408 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 3: twenty four to seven. But we have two pots. One 1409 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,680 Speaker 3: we can do five hundred pounds at a time, and 1410 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 3: I think I could probably get six hundred in it, 1411 01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 3: but five hundred is plenty. And then I have a 1412 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:20,960 Speaker 3: smaller pot that I can do two hundred and fifty 1413 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:21,880 Speaker 3: pounds at one time. 1414 01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's just the shrimp. 1415 01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's or whatever whatever.
