Heading down to Louisiana today to try and catch a few of those big crappie. The plan is to pick Jeff up around 10 tonight. That would put us at Grizzly Jig first thing in the morning. A quick stop there and maybe Prairie Wings will break the trip up nicely.

I left the boat down there for the winter so Friday evening and Saturday morning will be for installing a new Lowrance Elite 7, moving my old Elite 5 to the bow and changing the rectifier on the motor. A quick check of the bearings and lights and a fresh charge of the batteries and we'll be ready to fish.

Planning a crawfish boil for Saturday afternoon and six days of fishing after that.

Stay tuned, hopefully we'll have some stories and pictures for you.
