Spring is definitely underway in south Louisiana and, as a result, I'm finding it harder and harder to stay in the house on "Work from Home" days. While I'm not completely ignoring my responsibilities, I've done a fairly good job of managing my time in a manner that allows for long "lunch breaks" on most of these days. The result has been at least one to two brief to local waters each week since the end of February's ice storm. Admittedly, I've shared a few of these pictures previously, but thought I'd compile them all into a single post highlighting my last few weeks.

Not included are some reds taken on my 7wt, the common carp that I sadly failed to land, and a second bowfin that shook my hook earlier today.

Nice variety of species. I’m betting that bowfin put up a heck of a fight.

Thanks guys! And, yes, that bowfin is easily the best fight I've had on a 3wt rod.

It's not over yet! I'm currently sitting at 11 species on the year, and currently holding a four species lead in one of the local clubs' Mixed Bag CPR contest. With any luck, I'll be able to add one or two more before the month is over. My goal is 25+ species on the year.
