Had to change plans, was planning to fish Hopedale Sunday and instead fished Bayou Bienvenue. Caught 20 2-3#specks with another 2 going 4 and 4.5# fished carolina with live shrimp and 5 reds each going 23-27" and moster sheepsdhead, Im talking 8 to 10 pounders and maybe a few that had to be close to 12# all at the locks. Moved out and fished a few other spots and managed 2 more rodeo reds on glow/char chubs and a bunch of 11.5" specks. Caught 2 crab at the same time on the chub and threw them in the ice chest and ran over to a pass into lake borgne and threw out a line with cracked crab on a circle hooked and hooked up with a monster ___________ (insert fish type). It never came to the surface but I fought it for close to 10 min and chased it w/ trolling motor. was using a 30#flurocarbon leader with 15#biggame. After I got it closer to the surface I made out what looked like a black spot on the tail so I think it may have been a blacktip, not sure. I had about 12-15' between the boat and the monster when I could feel it turn and that point I felt no more pressure. What ever it was bit through the leader.
