Limit of reds & throwback rats
Windy morning at Sweetwater today. The fish were still biting good! Capt. Jack and the Baldridgesā brought in a limit of beautiful reds today. They threw back probably 20Ā rat reds. Customers came in with mixed bags- even some sheephead hit the tables. Capt. Jack spoke to a good number of customers,today & they seemed happy with their catch! Sometimes, it is not all about the catch..but just about being out on the water..enjoying life, enjoying the beauty of it all, before it all goes away or we do! We will update yāall on the live shrimp, in a few hours. Our shrimper is out on the prawl, as we write this. He has been keeping us stocked!- for that we are thankful..We should have enough for tomorrow, regardless! Like I said, we will post another update. Also, Just remember to be a courteous, respectful fisherman to other anglers! Donāt go pull 25 yards from another angler & expect not to mess up their fishing up. Everyone wants to catch a fish..but donāt be greedy and ruin others fishing, because you want to try out the spot.
More importantly- Happy thanksgiving š¦ from the Captain Jack, Sierra, Gracie & the Sweetwater crew! Each & every year, we are thankful for all our great customers! As always, canāt wait to see you here at Sweetwater Marina, the Marina that loves our customers!
ISO: If you know any great insured & licensed carpenters that wants to give us a estimate on doing the Sweetwater lodge repairs- message us!

Another world class day of fishing out of Sweetwater Marina in Delacroix Louisiana. People caught redfish. They caught specks. They caught bass. You name it, they caught it, today.

One Mediocre day in a Bayou of great days
Great day of fishing. Capt. Jack took out Mr. Louis Lacombe & his friends today. They came in with 11 beautiful reds, 21 specks & 3 bass. They should have went red fishing earlier today. Most people did well today, but Captain Jack was having a rough day..starting with a dead truck battery, locking himself out the house and was not on his best fishing game & the wind did not help out. This weekend is a good opportunity to come and catch some fish. The fishing really is on, donāt let Captain Jacks one mediocre day out of a million great days fool you..come on down & get on the trout & reds! We will have live shrimp
this weekend ! We look forward to seeing all of our customers, whether itās to catch red, catch specks, shoot ducks or a mix! We love having a full parking lot & happy customers that are coming for a great, relaxing day on the water!As always, we canāt wait to see you here at Sweetwater Marina, the Marina that loves our customers!
Here is a pic of Capt. Jacks catch today! & just a random pic I took today!
Limits all around
Great news, if you like to catch speckled trout! Even in all of this wind, customers came in with great numbers of trout! & All of the guides caught tons of redfish. Some guides even caught half limits of trout, along with their limit of reds. Good news is..we will have plenty of live bait for tomorrow and the weekend. The fishing should be even better, with the weather warming up this weekend. Even though, it is already great fishing! The water seems to be clear, which is what all of our customers said too. So, I say..come on down and get in on some of the action. Some hotspots include: Fourhorse, Lake John, Potto Cabalo, Round Lake, and one customer said he caught some off the Pencil Canal.
See yall this weekend!
