Sorry we didn’t get to post HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of our great customers! Hope you year is filled with lots of trips to Sweetwater! 😉 Today has been a dreary day down at the marina. We had about 8 brave souls launch today. We know a couple of them caught bass and reds. The weather is supposed to get better starting tomorrow. The weather should be warming up. Even though the weather channel is always unpredictable, I would still advise watching it before making a trip. Captain Jack says the fish should bite this weekend. The water is still clean due to Southeast winds. There are lots of bass right now. Reds are biting great, as well. However, the trout are kind of hit or miss but decent. Captain Jack recommends fishing out of the wind in Fourhorse, if you get the chance to come on down. We do have lodging available for this weekend, so call 504-342-2368 if you would like to book a room. Captain Jack has some dates for fishing available. He is great with everyone, will put you on the fish & make you laugh. You will have a GREAT time! Hopefully, we get to see you all in 2020! Ya know we can’t wait to see ya here at Sweetwater Marina!
