Most of my hunting is in the swamps of Maurepas and Manchac. Lots of duck, squirrel, rabbitt. Waiting on this raggidy weather to let up, so I can get in and do some crawfishing. How about you Where you from?

I'm here too. I hunt in a club 10 miles north of Minden, in Clairborn Parish. Good group of people and I enjoy the area. I'm not going to tell where I hail from, might get run out of town, but I've lived in Bossier for 30+ years. Married a local Arkie gal just to be able to stay down here. Wouldn't trade it for the world (or her either)

Checking in from Fort Polk. I am a Louisiana &quot;visitor&quot; - will be stationed here for a couple of years - been here since June of last year. I am a Kentucky resident, but my wife and I love LA - great food and great people - and this is the Sportsman's Paradise, even though duck season was very slow. Broke my leg this past August so I couldn't deer hunt (but killed one in Kentucky). Already looking forward to deer season next year and fishing Annacoco Lake this week. Mudbugs have been great.

RE: Louisiana Hunters?
 

Hey guys I'm from Bayou Vista La, I do most of my hunting in Claiborne Parish. Marine Corps side tracked and has been sending me around the country, can't wait to get back to the bayou state. Taking leave Friday to go get some of them crawfish they're catching. See you guys around, keep LA beautiful.

RE: Louisiana Hunters?
 

Just thought I would let you all know, that I went two times on my sons property in Livingston, and we did not get any turkeys. But we had a good time, and gave us some quality time as well. The summer and fall will give us more time to scout and be better prepared for next year. This was our first hunt for turkeys.

Hi Folks!
West bank of St.James Parish. Good to see so many Louisianians on this thread.--Roy

RE: Louisiana Hunters?
 

Got a question about catching crawfish. Here in N.W. FL crawfish boils are becoming more popular with all of them coming from La. What kind of trap and bait do ya'll use? I know some places that hold a lot of big crawfish, but nobody I know tries to catch them.

RE: Louisiana Hunters?
 

I live in westwego, Louisiana and i have a hunting lease on the west bank of St.James parish.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Louisiana Hunters?
 

Timbercruiser, you could use the common melts, or fish head, but lots of bait will attract them. I fish dem crawdads all the time. If you are using traps, I like the funnel traps with my float marker. They were hitting real good down here in the Marepas area. Season is gone now though. If you are using nets and fishing the swamps like I do, make you about a 12 foot conduit pole with a bend on the end. Have you a round hamper tied around your neck or sitting in your pirouge, and just pick them up. Let the net just slide right down your conduit pole and tip the crawdads in the hamper. Works great for me. If they are hitting hard, you got to run them nets, cause they will sure tear up the bait. I never tried it but an ole friend of mine tells me he gets cow neck, cause it is hard to tear up like melts and fish heads. I like catching and giving to the family and then keep a sack for my family. It is totally fun to say the least and great eating with good old cold Dixie beer. I have an inboard motor pirouge that gets me all over the swamp.
