Keeper Speckled Trout in the Marsh! They're Back!

I wait all year for this season, when perfect-sized speckled trout invade the marshes of South Louisiana, joining the redfish, flounder and largemouth bass that live there.
This week, my son, Joel, and I went to greet them, and we set up a challenge for ourselves to make things even more interesting.
Check out the video for all the details!

[@travislangston5705]

It's great to see the dream team back out.

[@media1groupDC]

Holy Joely guacamole back in da boat! Nice trip boys!

[@captainkatz1775]

those sky's looking dope

[@RickyVargasIII]

What a great trip! Glad to see Joel!!

[@YosefNasi]

I love fishing light tackle it’s makes everything that much more exciting. Great video!

[@danneyspain251]

It’s cool to see you fishing and sharing your time with the young fishermen ! Appreciate the videos.

[@Benjywells1]

Great trip. Good to see Joel fishing with you again.

[@brisketwizard8004]

Good to see Joel back fishing with you. My son moved about 5 hours away, got married, started a family and got a "Big Boy" job teaching Audio Engineering. He rarely gets to come fish with me here in SouthEast Texas / SouthWest Louisiana. What industry did Joel get his "Big Boy" job? I watch ALL of your videos. Keep them coming!

[@MarshManMasson]

Supply-chain management

[@wayfararout6258]

Me and my buddy went to the trestles Sunday on our little Jon boats and tore up the hammer trout a few over 20" my buddy had 15 and i had 12 but NO throw backs it was awesome

[@chadwilson6550]

Fun times. Great memories. Thanks for sharing your trip. Always enjoy your videos. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

[@MarshManMasson]

Same to you and yours

[@johnlamkins2563]

Always good with your son! God bless yal

[@anthonycyprusjr7829]

Got yet another glowing report from de Big Bridge!!After First Split of Duck Season ends,mercifully,plan to hit a few speck hot-spots!!

[@adamlee1832]

As a proud father of a nine year old boy, I await the days of fishing with a capable adult version of my son. Sure there is no better fishing partner. That being said, where the heck is the trash talking of yesterday year??!! A little less respect and a little more “I’m going to throw you in the water you son of a….!”

[@johnlamkins2563]

Yal making it look easy for sure!

[@T0mHudson-x2e]

[@media1groupDC]

Joel is the Sammy Sosa of hook sets lol! He don't get cheated! Forgot that lol!

[@MarshManMasson]

Yeah, need to check to see if he's juicing

[@jginn83]

Full moon fish at Noon!

[@jayman9899]

Right, that's the best

[@bigjspec]

U know that area well looks like Island Marine again

[@ducrebatiste7967]

Joel looks like he been fishing in New York City.

[@MarshManMasson]

🤣🤣🤣

[@dixie3087]

@ 20:30 could it be that the redfish spooked bass off? For whatever reason if im on a hot trout bite, then I catch a redfish or two, the trout bite slows dramatically then stops. I’ve also seen too many times where an area will be holding trout, for multiple trips over the course of a of week or two, then out of no where that area is holding way fewer trout and bull reds took their place

[@barrywuthrich8530]

After further review, Todd was disqualified because Joel caught a keeper trout on the ultra-light and Todd did not switch to ultra-light as per the rules.

[@MarshManMasson]

Yeah, in hindsight, I agree. To punish myself, on my next trip, I will use nothing but left-handed reels

[@haydenmichelli3065]

​@@MarshManMasson sir, those are left hand reels haha

[@barrywuthrich8530]

@@MarshManMasson I'm left-handed, cast left-handed, and use only right-handed reels. lol I can't reel with my left hand to save my life.

[@scottymuff9422]

Yuuup Yuuup

[@wayneridgel6287]

Living in the Hammond area any suggestions on a good place to fish for trout Fishing from a pontoon boat Thanks

[@kmac3824]

Where are you fishing in this video?

[@BenOveresch-mz4uc]

Tiny bass and they keep every one?

[@marcchauvin4992]

Why would you bring 21 rod & reels???

[@benificentfishing]

I prefer ultralight

[@MarshManMasson]

There are times I do as well. I don't think Joel felt the same way when he lost five bass in a row

[@mogrizzly49311]

The net man suck... lol

[@MarshManMasson]

At least one person on that boat happens to agree with you ...
