Jason Kenney Location: Buras Date: January 7, 2009 When The Wind Blows… I’ve always heard that being able to make choices is a luxury reserved for the wealthy. As someone who typically works 55-60 hours a week, choosing which days I can go fishing is not a luxury I get to enjoy. On the other hand, getting to go fishing at all is a luxury in and of itself. So … my lack of choices leaves me with this predicament; either go fishing in the forecasted 30 mph...

No specified region. Date: December 9, 2008 ScoutingFirst and foremost, the most important thing you have to do while duck hunting is hunt where the ducks are. This seems like the most obvious thing to do, but year after year most people think the birds will keep coming back to the same holes, leases, ponds, lakes, etc. This isn’t the case. Some duck hunting locations will get the majority of ducks while the others will not. In other words, the ducks do not spread out evenly during the migration. Remember, this is wildlife and Mother Nature. Nothing is constant and things will change year after year. Scouting is extremely important to having a good duck hunt. Weather The weather and duck hunting. As far as the weather goes it is most important that it freezes up north to push all...

Sonny Schindler Location: No specified region. Date: December 9, 2008 No matter what you say, everyone is, in some way, superstitious. Both good and bad luck are tied to charms, sayings, trinkets and actions. Next to baseball fans, fishermen are almost fanatical with their superstitious lifestyle. Often times, trips will be blessed or cursed with this "magical" connection to superstition. Not believing in tides, lunar tables, water temperature or time of year, some fishermen live only by this mystical system.With hundreds of days on the water, we at Marsh and Bayou asked several captains and guides one simple question: What do you consider good luck and bad luck in regards to fishing? Enjoy the answers: When Capt. C.T. Williams is not working on his fishing show, Louisina Wildlife, he is guiding clients out of Breton Sound Marina. Even though he specializes in trout and redfish, he does his...

Butch Thurmond Location: No specified region. Date: September 9, 2008 One of my favorite things to do is dove hunting! Every year I drive to Illinois for the opening days of the season, where we get always get some great shooting. On opening day, I usually have a limit of 15 birds in the first hour of shooting and have to wait until the next day for more! Often I wondered what it would be like to just keep on shooting! While we were cleaning our birds around a huge pit that the farmer had dug, one of the other hunters was telling about his recent trip to Argentina, where he had shot more than 1500 birds in his four days of hunting. That got me to dreaming, and a dream can lead to great things. On the internet, I found several outfitters that offered various packages that include lodging, meals and as many days of hunting as you can stand! I checked with some friends in Florida that had been, and they highly recommended ‘Argentina...

Sonny Schindler Location: Rigolets Date: June 17, 2008 It was about 2 AM and the seas were rough. We were just rounding Ship Island, watching the Mississippi Gulf Coast sky line fade away. Capt Matt Tusa and myself were fixated on our two bay boats following us in tow. I was a bit uneasy watching as my boat trailed last, only visible by the tow lights. Being able to see my unrest, Capt Matt did his best to make the best of the situation. He grinned at me as he pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and pressed the off button. "Phones don't work out there kiddo", Tusa added as I followed his lead turning my phone off. Our phones usually ring day and night, so this was already shaping up to be a good time. We were aboard the Southern Sport, one of the nicest "Chandeleur boats" in the fleet. The Southern Sport is one hundred and eighteen feet of ultimate fishing luxury and we were along for the ride. The plan was to...
