Right, I drove 550 miles to look at property in Grand Isle (flooded) and fish a couple of days on my boat in Venice. When I left Arkansas on Friday, they were calling for 2-3's both Sunday and Monday. We did venture out Monday in some six foot swell for a few snappers and a nice grouper. If I was correct no more often than the weather forecasters, I would be fired the first day. I do realize it is not an exact science. I pretty much go when I can, when you drive as far as I do, you can't wait until the last minute. I have also fished several times when the prediction was for 4 - 6's and it ended up being 2 - 4's or less. I have fished, out of Venice, 32 days since the first of the year. Five days were 2 - 3's, or less. Most days are 2 - 4's or 3 - 5's. You can always catch redfish at the mouth of the river - beats working.

We went to Buras Wed. and the weather was perfect. The first fish of the morning was a red that buried the 25lb scale. Had to practically break the scale to get it off its lip. Redfish were everywhere but trout were hard to find. Limit in reds and 15 trout. Trout were between 14-18". You can see the pic of the red on Huntnfish.com
