Living the song

If you haven’t heard the Katie Knight’s “Lake D’Arbonne” country song, you need to. It’s a Classic. You can click on the icon on this page’s middle column, click on “all music” then on Lake D’arbonne” and give it a listen. Saturday, I was living the song. The alarm went off early. I gathered up … Continue reading

Good morning, Lake D’Arbonne

Photos of this Rainbow popped up all over Facebook last week after thousands of Lake D’Arbonne residents woke up to this sight. And we’re worried about an election? — (thanks for the photo, John Crow) The Covenant of the Rainbow …12 God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between … Continue reading

Yaw Yaw Yaw Fishbaws!

It’s LSU – Bama week, and we can’t let it pass without our fifth annual version of the fish fight between the two SEC West powerhouses. *** *** *** There’s a boatload of reasons coaching LSU means a lot to Louisiana’s own Ed Orgeron.

Barham did an outstanding job

For months now, one-sided news reports about allegations from a leaked “preliminary audit” of some Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries improper BP oil spill fund spending have been circulating. The reports caught a lot of attention. But a closer look shows there is an underlying theme in this that seems to be aimed at … Continue reading

Something to think about

Mainly because the candidates policies … Continue reading

Most excellent adventure!

The drawdown every four years on D’Arbonne opens a world of wonder. We scour the bottom finding old chairs and tables, rod and reel combos, baits, almost anything after this spring’s flood. We ride around in the boat, looking at where creek channels come into the river, where old log piles still hide 100 year … Continue reading

The thump, deer corn and more…

The thump was slow for the Crappie Fishermen United of Louisiana tourney trail Saturday on the Ouachita River out of Sterlington, but  there were some good fish brought to the scales and cooler weather made it a special day. When the final fish hit the scales, Jason Thomas and Ken Myers had landed a limit … Continue reading

Use it well

This week,  I slipped in to well-known fisherman Bobby Phillips’ FACEBOOK “fishing hole” to net this keeper. He’s not only a good fisherman, but a wise man as well:  Our Bible Verse for today: “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a … Continue reading
