I'm headed out for some fishing in St. Ber-noid Parish. It's the first time I've been down there since Katrina. Wish me and the lower unit luck in not finding any of the trees, boats, cars, camps or oil rigs that got washed in.

I'm going here:

I hope you are not going to eat any of those fish with all that garbage in that water. Good luck, dont wreck the boat or you will have to change your name to Gilligan.
 
I'm not fishing *in* New Orleans.
:)

The water in the marsh is beautiful- cleanest it has been as long as I have been going down there. The whole area is really scenic, especially since Katrina washed all of the garbage into Chalmette and the Ninth Ward.

I saw big boats out in the swamp that were miles away from any navigable water. I saw houses that were raised 20 feet off the ground that were either completely submerged or completely gone.

We fished in the red circled areas. I'm not giving away my honey holes.
Fish? We limited out on specks (that's 50 for 2 people).

FISH FRY!!1!
:D

Oh, there is no doubt about eating the fish.
The water is fine- actually it's cleaner than it has been in a long time.

Now, coming back through Chalmette my eyes started burning.
 
Chalmette is mostly vanilla and chemical/oil spills.
 
Haven't been to NOLA in a while.
 
Thad,
So what does the sign say?

Don't you want to donate some of that hotel money?
It's for a good cause.
