Thread: Pigeon today/Slow

Made a trip with Warren(marineaok) today. Went looking for anything and that is what we found. Caught crappie, goggle eye, bream, gar, barfish, catfish and bass and hooked a few that would not come up. All tight lining a junebug/chartreuse curly tail on a 1/32 oz jig. Tried other baits, but no go. On the way home the adventure got bad. Noticed a lot of smoke in the air at Plaquemine. The Dow flares were going like crazy. They had a power failure that shut down the whole plant. Could not even inject steam to the flare tips to help with smoke from the hydrocarbons. Also, they had a small release of chlorine. If we had been 2 minutes sooner, we would have cleared it. But instead we sat on La. 1 until they decided to reroute us to the river road behind the plant. Just a small 1.5 hour inconvenience. But from 2 old plant workers like us, it was nothing compared to if we had been there in the plant. That is where Warren retired from. He had never seen a complete plant shutdown in his career. Back to the report. We kept 3 crappie, 2 bass, 2 catfish and the barfish. Once again Warren caught a big one. 8 lb 10 oz cat. One of mybass was over 2 lbs. Like I said all on jigs. A couple pics. Warren and his big cat and a couple of the smoke and flaring.

Danny I always told my kids when we passed those plants that those towers were cloud making machines.
