The weather started kind of gloomy, but it picked up. Can’t say the same for
the fish. Evidently, they only respond to live shrimp bait. We only use
artificial. Ron’s depth finder didn’t work and that put a crimp in our travel
plans. Then we tilted the motor up and it wouldn’t go back down. We finally
got that corrected and left the area. Not much for fish, but a good fishing
day. We will probably try the Sulfur Mine next. Not too keen on Delacroix.
