The Itinerant AnglerIf this was photoshop I wouldn’t be all that interested, but an actual double exposure makes it very cool to me.

The Itinerant AnglerWe did have one but he was there to fish, not cook.

The Itinerant AnglerYou should check out Kelly Galloup’s [s:1274s7na]mustache[/s:1274s7na] podcast some time…

The Itinerant AnglerIncidentally, Lamson has a very, very detailed, lengthy, and some might even say cheeky explanation of their reel line and design philosophy here:

They do an excellent job of explaining their drag and also outlining some of the most important factors in designing reels.

The Itinerant AnglerI have a lot of respect for Lamson reels too, although I don’t own any.

The Itinerant AnglerNo, Curtis, we were down on Grand Isle fishing the passes and then off the beach going down to Port Fourchon.

The Itinerant AnglerThe main hang up I have about the chest pocket is that it impedes the ability to roll the wader down.

The Itinerant AnglerThe Zuddler Minnow and Kelly Galloup’s Sex Dungeon are my two favorite streamers for brown trout, Erie steelhead, and large laker rainbows.
I saw that someone is finally marketing articulated hooks with the shanks already bound together; that would speed up the tying a bit, though you’d only have one hook.

The Itinerant AnglerThat spider fly is officially freaking me out.

The Itinerant AnglerHere are some photos from the trip:







I lost track of how many big redfish we caught; a lot. Â We were meat hunting and ended up limiting out on the trophy slot (fish above 27″) both days; meanwhile slot fish (16″ to 26″) were harder to come by.

The reds were, uh, feisty.Zach Matthews
The Itinerant AnglerSimms Guides are back this year; I would get them over the G3s.
Zach Matthews
The Itinerant AnglerThis was one of those trips where the organizer (not me) tried to mix bait and fly anglers…and we all know that inevitably leads to bait fishing.
Zach Matthews
The Itinerant AnglerThat’s good advice, Mike.

The Itinerant AnglerMike –
Where has the Corps predicted that man?

The Itinerant AnglerI don’t have any insight personally (though I’m sure there are those here who would), but be sure to post back if you’re successful.
