You was on em ! That’s awesome
Spanked dem trout ARSES boys and girls! Nice! Keep rock'in!
Darn right! I was hoping to get on em again this weekend, but it doesn’t look like that’ll happen with the tropical system coming through.
Nice day on the beach! Thx for sharing!
Always good to be out there! More videos coming soon if I can get em ready! Been catching some hammers!
@@ClementChronicles It's been hard to find calm days like that when I'm NOT working! Glad to see you guys had a great trip!
@@greogorybilliot1435 I just started work myself, and I’m not sure how often I’ll be out there now, but I’ll definitely be fishing or hunting as often as I can!
@@ClementChronicles We can't pick our days when working. Just have to go on off. You happen to go on a day where the conditions were perfect!
Dude that was unreal! I have a few good days on Elmer's island but nothing like that. I still have so much to learn. I miss when we could drive on the beach.
Fishing is like anything else: there’s always a way to get better and something new to learn! I was little when people could drive down Elmer’s, but it’s probably better this way to preserve the beach!
Great Video. Reminds me of my early days as a Damn Yankee in LA. I'd come to GI and fish Elmer's with my buddies. Back then - you could pay your 5 bucks and drive out on the beach and even camp if you wanted to. Anyway, we'd catch trout on Friday night until about midnight. Then we'd run to Thurston Watts to stay in the 35/night cabins. We'd get up before daylight and get breakfast and lunch. It was a diet coke or two and a couple of candy bars. That was it for all day. Then we'd fish until evening Saturday. I can remember cleaning fish for hours . The limit was 50 specs each back then. We'd buy a couple of pounds of shrimp, a loaf of french bread, some ketchup and some fries - that was Supper. Sunday AM we were up early for daylight. We'd fish until Noon. At Noon we'd start crabbing. About 4PM we'd head back to Baton Rouge with all the fish and a couple of ice chests full of Crabs. When we arrived at our friends apartment - there would be about 30 people waiting for the crab boil. I'd be so whooped - I couldn't wait for Monday to get back to work and get some rest, lol.
Now that’s sounds like an adventure that should’ve been recorded!! That would probably have to be like a 4 part video. I can’t even begin to imagine cleaning that many fish.
It’s fun just watching you catch fish 😂. It’s crazy how in normal day talking to everyone around here you don’t notice the accent, but you can tell on a video. Crazy. You are a natural on video. Keep it up Noah you are good at TH-cam videos. Me and my daughter might try and got this Saturday morning. What time normally is a good time to start fishing on the beach. It’s a good drive from thibodaux
Thanks man I appreciate that!!😂 The moon phase and tides determine if you really have to be out there super early or not. I’m from Chackbay, so I know all about the drive to get down there in the morning. It’s always a safe bet to be fishing before the sun rise!
@@ClementChronicles I know we’re your from Noah. My son Noah Robertson played football with you when y’all played for the Cajuns.
@@jaredrobertson1955 YES INDEED!! Man it’s been a long time since I’ve seen Noah😂 Hope y’all have been doing well!!
We had our own Clement trip in Catfish Lake on Memorial day. Chuck, Julie and Peter Clement from Bunkie. We caught pretty good.
I haven’t fished Catfish Lake much, but I plan to get out there a bit this fall and get on some transition trout!
great job on video
Thank you! More coming soon!
I see you are a Tech'ster. We are a TECH family also, My wife, son and I graduated from TECH and My daughter just started this summer, Lucy Clement.
Yes indeed, go dawgs!!
What's the name of that topwater? We caught them on a red-eyed shade there. Nice vid
Thanks! Matrix Mullet and I believe the color is called Bayou Bengal.
can the public drive to the beach yet?
You can drive down Elmer’s Island road to the parking lot by the beach, but no one is allowed to drive on the beach itself expect the shuttles.
@@ClementChronicles thx man.
did yall have to find the birds and the bait?
absolutely! Birds and bait are good signs that fish aren’t far behind.
@@ClementChronicles so yall just walked along the beach until yall saw bait and birds?
@@Anderson-wk9rv Those are two signs to look for, but there are others as well. Any oddities of the beach itself can signal something that fish may gravitate towards. Reading the waves can help identify breaks in the sandbars that can also be very productive. I’ll make a video about all of that someday!
How were y'all retrieving the plastic lures ?
Wyatt caught a few jigging, but for the most part I caught em with a steady cast and retrieve. In all honesty, many times there wasn’t much retrieving going on because the bait would hit the water and a fish was on already!😂
What wind did y'all fish?
I believe we had a Northwest wind blowing that day.
Thinking about heading to Elmer's Island for some crabbing and fishing. Please contact me and tell me more about the shuttle. Thnx!
@@rhondasibley7679 shuttle operates from sun up to sun down, no fee, and they accept tips! That’s all there is to it that I can think of
How do you get to this spot is it on grand isle beach?
This footage is from Elmer’s beach. You can either walk the beach or take a shuttle to wherever you’d like to go!
