Enjoy the show so much. I thought I would help the cause. I ordered the white ball cap. Waiting on it to get here. You've got pretty good merch. Keep up the good work. The quality of the shows are excellent. Good at editing. Sometimes I think you're calling your boy. Greg instead of Drake but I'm getting used to it. Keep up the good work and I'll keep watching

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank you very much!

[@Captain_Brian]

Dang! So beautiful! Most people could never appreciate what y’all got with the camp.

[@datlouisianalife]

We definitely feel blessed to have our little getaway and our way of life down here.

[@perrypresley9630]

I live in a swamp and food is plentiful. I had to get me a shed bar to put some distance between me and the wife,lol

[@dianajones7999]

Priceless !

[@LouisianaBayouLife]

Brother we had a blast hanging out. Thank you for having us out. Our camp will be ready soon for us to spend nights an be there more often.

[@datlouisianalife]

We enjoyed the company. It was some fun times. I'm sure we will see y'all out there soon. Thanks buddy!🐊

[@EricBailey-nz2ru]

Crawfish emeloutte sounds lip smacking good!!

[@chesterricherson3565]

It's hard to beat a breakfast of grits, eggs, and patty sausage!

[@thomcarroll5845]

Drake and Tara really are like mom and son

[@8Scorpions]

Man that crawfish omelet sounded and looked delicious, put a lil Sriracha tobacco and Bam Son😋🍻

[@ldufrene9727]

Great video. I enjoy watching the interaction between you, Drake and Tara. A lot of love and good times at that little camp.

[@datlouisianalife]

We really appreciate that! 🐊

[@Grizzmakes]

I am watching your weekend videos and hunting, fishing, living a good life just keeps me grinning. I am no fisherman, or hunter but I want to fish, hunt Nutria, frog, do all your adventures every time I see the three of you out playing. Thanks for my “therapy”

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank you!

[@Grizzmakes]

@@datlouisianalife I suspect that I am going to run down there from Wright City (St Louis) the second week of September to scratch this massive itch I had a few years now. England has none of this. PS. The drone shots are incredible as well.

[@dianajones7999]

I am almost 72. I awhile love to camp out with you all !!!! Lost my husband in 2022. Had to stop camping and fishing, frog gigging and all that good ,wonderful, healthy fun stuff. Love watching you and your family though !!!

[@dianajones7999]

Would love to camp with you and your family

[@robhaynes7630]

We had a houseboat when I was young off of Little Bayou Pigeon. This brings back so many memories. Thank you for sharing.

[@datlouisianalife]

Glad you enjoyed it! We love sharing a little of our simple life! Take care!

[@lisaglassford9574]

I've never fished. I like how you are teaching your son the rules of the catch throw the little guys back. Sweet. 😊

[@datlouisianalife]

I just pass down what was taught to me. I'm just happy he still enjoys hanging with me. 🐊

[@duckdodgers8534]

It's fun to watch your family getaways. I appreciate the authenticity, joy and excitement in your videos.

[@datlouisianalife]

We really appreciate that! Glad you enjoyed. 🐊

[@melindawhite5198]

I love Dat Louisiana Life.

[@seadragon1456]

My son (7) loves these the videos! He thinks it’s so cool to watch your boy catch frogs and swim with gators! My son is a little country boy in Missouri. He’s loves flippin rocks to find his own bass bait and catching catfish that are almost as long as he is tall. A couple years ago he was introduced to spoonbill fishing so as he gets bigger he’s getting more into it. They are some goofy looking fish. Anyway, just thought I’d share that you guys speak to my son. He used to look forward to our crawfish run down there but now he wants to see the gators and catch frogs.

[@datlouisianalife]

So glad your son loves watching Drake! The only way our kids will learn about the outdoors is if we take the time to expose them to it! You and your son are blessed, like us, to be able to do that. There are so many kids, people in general, that have no idea what it's like. Hopefully, your little boy will be able to catch some frogs soon! Thanks for watching!

[@kennethprice5628]

Them frogs are so funny!😂😂😂

[@AidenVancleef]

you all did good on your evening outing. Nice fish

[@raymondwatkins1068]

Those eels make good catfish date like you do with the little blue bill just eel in 1 inch squares. Good luck.. 😳😎

[@rogerwalters5823]

Thank y'all for sharing your adventures with those of us that can't participate. Love when Drake is in the videos. He Da Man! Keep up the good work.

[@datlouisianalife]

We certainly feel blessed to be able to do what we do! And Drake is a character for sure!

[@conniefremin]

This was an amazing video!! You covered it all this time! Makes my Momma and Grandmother heart happy to see y’all enjoying such quality time together!❤️❤️

[@datlouisianalife]

Thanks mom! You know us, always out there playing and enjoying the great outdoors. ❤️🐊🐸🐍🎣

[@DavidMcBee-lk1uu]

I love seeing your dream come to life!!!

[@brendastrode7140]

Had to watch a video I already watched. Missed seeing Drake on yesterdays video.. My youngest grandchild graduated in May and now going to EMT school. Miss having a young one around , Drake is such a well mannered young man and he makes me smile.

[@guitardave3028]

I sure miss those nights runnin yo yos in henderson at night and catchin them sac-a-lait during the day....them was some special days...

[@jwfinley7808]

The frogs we caught. My Dad baited a fishing pole with a rubber worm. Hed cast it in front of the frog after the frog swallowed it hed yank it on shore where us kids was waiting for it! The crawdads hed put a piece of bacon at the end of a string and toss it out and when he pulled back in it had a crawdad hanging on! I miss those days! GOOD EATING!!

[@datlouisianalife]

Sounds like you have some great memories with your dad. I never tried fishing for frogs.🤣 I bet that was a fun time. We used set nets for crawfish when I was a kid and it was so awesome! I haven't done that in forever. I might have to find a place to go do that. Thanks for sharing buddy! 🦞

[@Pompano-gy5nj]

Awesome. As usual. Found myself smiling while watching this. Thanks for sharing! Congrats on the wild game success, all while having a fantastic time

[@datlouisianalife]

Glad you enjoyed. Thank you! 🐊

[@Leon-ym9qm]

[@fishingfreak9734]

All I know is that I'm looking for so fresh frog legs now! I love y'all's camp boat! Beautiful blue cats and crappie, what a blessed life. I want to book a trip to da swamps! My buddy rented one years ago and had a blast. I subscribed for sure, this is what families need to do together more often - God Bless Y'all!

[@datlouisianalife]

We really enjoy being out there at the camp. Also something fun to do. The scenery around there is amazing. Book you a place and go play in the swamp. Thanks for your positive feedback! 🐊🐊🐊

[@adolfoarrieta5178]

WOW Beautiful life style. you should make fishing tours.

[@garytanton6782]

I had dinner at Segnette's Landing tonight. I know y'all went there a while back. I got the crawfish pie with a side of potato salad. My friends split the seafood platter. All the food was so good.

[@datlouisianalife]

Awe, thank you for saying that! I love being out there. I grew up on Lake Verret, so I've been around that lifestyle my whole life! TARA

[@johnbaker4847]

Momma Quick! That frog never had a chance... Ya'll got it good, Enjoy! 👌❤️👍🥰😊

[@datlouisianalife]

She doesn't like missing a frog. 🤣

[@shellybirch8893]

My Dad use to catch cat fish as big as your son in the Mississippi River with Bamboo poles. That was in the 70s but I seen it with my own eyes. Scared the crap out of me. I was about 10, 11.

[@datlouisianalife]

I think they have some huge ones around our area, too! But we'll probably NEVER catch anything close to HUGE! Lol

[@larrycresse753]

You get more frogs when you drink Miller lite 😂

[@datlouisianalife]

You got a point! 🤣🤣🤣🍻

[@zabajart]

Really enjoy the drone footage and frog legs 👍😊

[@rck228]
