Fat Mississippi Speckled Trout love Live Croaker

[@waynebailey3914]

Your thoughts of returning to Grand Isle? Queen Bess seemed like a great place to retire and fish?

[@tommyvidrine]

Not enough to do. Love it here

[@fishinman]

TOMMY V. You always give great advice and you’re so right when the croaker dies he’s no good Thanks for your professional honesty

[@tommyvidrine]

My pleasure

[@walterpierce3091]

Are you fishing on bottom? And are you using sinkers? New to saltwater fishing is why I’m asking

[@tommyvidrine]

Freelining live croaker. Just a #2 Kahle hook. No weight. Hook in top lip

[@ricks9263]

That Pearl has the water all messed up over here in the Slidell area too. The exception is Lake P. We have been dropping the hammer on some good specks 17-21” on the bridges when conditions are right. River will only get worse after all the rain comes down again in the next couple days. As always, great content, thanks for sharing!

my man TOMMY V. I ENJOY WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS thanks for posting !!!!

[@larrywalker3434]

Nice haul Mr Tommy That just goes to show conditions don't have to be perfect to catch good quality fish Sure would like to go offshore with you sometime to catch some of them big mangrove wolves

[@Eric_Hellbach]

Thanks for sharing!! Capt short boots and I are gonna give it a try Sunday!

[@chriskirby1879]

Do you prefer hooking your croaker through the lip or tail? I’ve heard that fish have to eat croaker head first because of their gill flairs. Just curious to know what you think! Thanks

[@tommyvidrine]

Open his mouth go in and come out top. Just enough for it not to come off on your cast

[@Fishonone]

Hammer time... When the water temps are close to 80F is when the croaker bite turns on. Probably fish East Matagorda this weekend

[@JaredSerigne]

Great video brother good to see you enjoying it

[@tealnexttimebond8859]

Croaker gotta season. I get em right off boat though and they don’t die. But if you keep ‘em overnight on o2 they gotta be seasoned.

[@kentmalley4321]

What have you done with the Brasco? I miss him on the video they have been sticking the big flounders over in your area

[@tommyvidrine]

Rosco went to Fish Breton island. He will be back on soon

[@johnteal5014]

Hooked through both lips? Circle hook? Thank you

[@tommyvidrine]
