    Default Year round habitat South of I10 question (Southeast La)


    Okay I'm fairly new to chasing these tasty Sacs and wanting to create year round habitat for me to take my grandkids, nieces and nephews.... Im doing the same thing i did for Speckled trout fishing, I picked one area (Reggio and Delacriox cause they both connect pretty much) and i would run my route, stick and move, stick and move and master that area.

    I after all my research and studying, I have decide on making some brush piles and but them on under water points, so I need contour maps, well Des Allemands (my area to master) doesnt have any contour maps, so im making my own with my Solix.
    Yesterday i Autocharted for an hour and coverd about 360,000 sq.ft of the main channel and it surprised me that i didnt find one brush pile.... i did find underwater laydowns, stumps etc....(no sacs)

    My oldest son and i where talking about my findings ( I know this is just a small area i mapped and will do alot more mapping) I believe that either 1: South Louisiana, south of I10: you fish, based off seasons, the crappie spawn, then you move to chasing trout cause they are in the marshes and close to the docks etc, then the Speck spawn just about after Fathers day you move closer to the beachs and then your on the beaches and then its almost hunting season. Or 2: most people just fish blow downs that they can see, trees and rigs and or beat a bank...

    What are your thoughts on this?

    Once i purchase my Zero lines card i will be sharing the contour maps on Humminbird Autochart Live share for those that which to have such thing for that area.

    Isn't technology wonderful! I can still remember those old folded paper charts and later came thoes limited arel maps, you had to be lucky if they produced one for the area you fished. Than came the larger Standard Mapping Plastic coated maps, WoW do some of you remember Loran Lines on top of thoes old Block Charts used in the Gulf. How things have advanced with GPS and Down Imaging, Side Imaging and 360* vewing. But the world would be lost with out one of the old world tools to navigate, the Sexton. I'm so far behind I just purchased a SI fish finder which will be out dated tomorrow with the advance in technology. I can't wait to see what lies ahead in the future.

    You can record 8 hours on the unit it self, but the card is where its at... they say unlimited on the Zero lines card. Which runs around $70.00... after yesterdays recording i max out my unit so looks like buying one.
