Thank you, kind sir!

[@parkerrogers2277]

The fact that you got that topwater bite on camera is incredible. Days like that are what we dream of. And the guy motoring through the trout is our alarm clock waking us back into reality.

[@LAFishBlog]

Thanks, Parker!

[@crossacoustics6814]

Stayed in the pocket like drew brees with the storm clouds. I can only do that when I’m fishing alone. People get VERY scared. Well done - plus the joy of top water is like nothing else. To me, this was a special time fishing.

[@LAFishBlog]

Thanks for watching!

[@kellycarmouche7452]

The video quality…. Awesome! Thanks Capt. Devin!

[@myotkois]

Belittling the guy driving over the fish and firing up the big motor was awesome. Jealous of that trip! Good work

[@LAFishBlog]

I was upset but i’m over it. I’m sure he’s a great dude and I hope he had a good day fishing.

First class top water action and commentary! Love relating the "fish or flee the storm" question everyone's been up against.

[@LAFishBlog]

Thanks for watching, James!

[@emoe40]

Great video. Fish always feed crazy when a storm is coming through because of the drop in the barometric pressure. I love fishing just at the start of the rain.

[@greogorybilliot1435]

For you to say, the best topwater trip of your life!!! I wish you still did guided trips! I agree with Ryan! By far the best on KZbin!

This video encouraged me to go out and try top water myself and I have to say I completely understand now when you said you would rather catch 5 on top water over 25 under a popping cork. Also I just signed up for LAFB elite and definitely do not regret it. Tons of great info.

[@johnnyfive8748]

The reason that place has become a "boat lot" is because of videos like this. Thanks alot.

[@LAFishBlog]

Uh oh, sounds like someone is sour. Look buddy, that spot (and pretty much all the "known" spots out there) are no secret. They've been written about, talked about, filmed since before you could hold a rod. I guarantee it. At the end of the day if you're good at fishing you won't give a rusty duck fart about who films at what spot or whatever because you'll be able to find and catch fish on your own anyway. I know I do, so why can't you?

[@johnnyfive8748]

[@MrTcowan86]

Hey Devin, do you generally have braided line with a different type leader?

[@LAFishBlog]

No, I don't. I get this question a lot and I am telling you braided line has it's place, but it isn't suitable for everything. Inshore anglers are stuck on it and they'd catch a lot more fish if they'd learn to use FC and mono.

[@cliffordtillman]

What a cool day. I’ve only been on something like that once. And it only lasted about an hour

[@LAFishBlog]

It will happen again.

[@FishingWithDamon]

Awesome trout fishing they were so beautiful and I just loved the scenery I recently did a trout fishing video it is so peaceful especially since I have been distracted with school love that bait that you use I have the exact same one my favourite is the lucky strike spinners thought anyway have a happy Halloween!!

[@LAFishBlog]

That's awesome. Thanks for watching!

[@fishinwithferg6048]

Do you find that as anglers are self- imposing a smaller creel limit the trout are getting bigger around here?

[@LAFishBlog]

I don't think that many anglers police themselves, meaning I don't think that many anglers here in south Louisiana are putting speckled trout back in the water. I pretty much never see it happen. On that day other boats did occasionally catch speckled trout and, when they did, they went straight into the cooler. The speckled trout fishing as a whole is a shadow of what it was ten years ago. Not even close. I'm not here to point fingers or blame anybody, I'm just answering your question. I do believe that conservation begins in the hearts and minds of inshore anglers and I have been saying this for years. In fact, I wrote this blog post in 2016 saying exactly that: www.lafishblog.com/conservation-begins-in-the-hearts-of-inshore-anglers/

[@fishinwithferg6048]

@@LAFishBlog I hear that. I’ve noticed a handful in my small circle that have begun to police themselves, but that definitely is not representative of the whole community. It’s awesome to see that there are trout over 18 inches though! Great video man. I hope I can break 18” this year.

Hey Devin, how about a show weighing a limit? Just to see how many pounds per a average limit, 15 vs. 25 limit

Has to be really hard to find 20+ inch trout when the minimum keeper size is only 12 inches. I know Louisiana is blessed with a great estuary but increasing the minimum size to 15 would not harm the system.

[@LAFishBlog]

I cannot disagree with you there.

I always get that sideways "we catch bigger fish in Texas" attitude. What's up with that? It's not like you personally managed the fishery there.

And I’m happy for Texas. I think Texas has done a great job managing incredible bass fisheries and are doing the same with speckled trout. But I do get the “well, we catch bigger ones over here” attitude. Am I incorrect in my assessment?
