Welcome aboard my friend. I too am now cancer free after surgery and radiation treatment. ( Prostrate) It was a tough year especially for the family but Doctor is very happy with the end results. Good luck and tight lines!
Welcome to fs Jake,great news on the cancerπ
Very nice rig
Welcome aboard here and to AL. I grew up in Wilmer fishing on Big Creek Lake and the Escatawpa River. Takes a while to get the hang of fishing on the lake. Loved fishing a Devil Horse just before dark and casting into the shad schools for bass. Plastic worms work well too. Trolling in the spring will get you a lot of small bass.
My brother still fishes the lake, but says most of it has been closed while they killed the grass that was choking it out.
I now live in south Baldwin Country and fish inshore along the coast. Havenβt fished the Delta in several years. Fun place to catch both fresh and salt water fish on the same trip. Lots of bass, speckled trout (at the right time of the year) and bream. I always had good luck in with spinner baits. Caught some big grinnel (bow fish, dog fish, cypress trout) on plastic worms in the back bayous.
Congratulations on beating cancer. I have prostate cancer that has spread to my right hip and two ribs so I know some of what you have gone through. I am responding well to treatment and the docs are talking years, not months for me. I can do pretty much what I need and want to do, just canβt do it all in the same day..
Good luck and tight lines

Hi Nawlin,
Looks like your boat will do all you need for most fishing around here. I fished some at Big Creek lake when I was in my teens. About all I caught were a few small bream, and a couple of pickerel. Glad to see there are some members here who have the Lake figured out. The bass in the Delta are locally known as "footballs". This is due to their size and shape. They love live shrimp.
Jason Smith, one of our local weathermen, made several videos about fishing the Delta. You might want to look those up.
BTW, glad to hear about your diagnosis. I know that's a real load off your mind.
Hey Nawlin, welcome to the forum and to LA. Glad to hear you are clear of cancer and ready to go fishing. In my 71 years I have found that fishing is great therapy for whatever ails you. Nice boat you have there. Is it stick or tiller steer?
