Prayers needed

I have a favor to ask. Take a few minutes today and quietly pray for family members, friends and people you don’t even know who were hit hard by flooding around Lake D’Arbonne and our whole region. It’s been seven weeks since our lake crested just shy of 89 feet, the second highest level on … Continue reading

She was mad!

Man, when that front blew through Wednesday, it was followed with some straight line winds right out of the south that made the Lady D’Arbonne as mad as a whitecap. I’ll let the pictures tell the story and save my thousand words for another day…

Hunter pink?

Isn’t it refreshing to know that in the midst of the widely articulated falling financial sky in The Bayou State, previously known as the Sportsman’s Paradise (sorry, Prince fans…), our legislature took time to tackle a high level problem plaguing our deer woods. Of course, I’m talking  Pink  vs.  Orange. Our Louisiana Legislature Monday fully … Continue reading

Bass still on the bite

Kel’s Cove on Lake Claiborne was … Continue reading

Seek first…

 Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Hungry fish

Something to ponder over the weekend: Everybody knows that when the cows are feeding, the fish are biting. You did know that, didn’t you? Oh well, here’s one sure sign the fish are biting and that the cows should not get to close to the water!  

Impromptu crappie

I’m sure you’ve heard of black crappie and white crappie, but have you ever heard of: impromptu crappie? My good fishing buddy George got laid off from work for a few days this week because of the bad weather and he came to town to buy me lunch at LBK’s. He must have lost some … Continue reading

Now that’s a bream bucket

It’s getting time to catch some bream and I just have to share these two things to get you in the right frame of mind: Now I’ve seen all kinds of bream buckets, cages, tubes, etc. But Dr. Ray “Cold Front” Jones indubitably has the ultimate cricket bucket. It was born of necessity a few … Continue reading

Time is like a river…

Ephesians 5: 15 Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, 16 making the most of your time, because the days are evil. 17 So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.…
