Chainsaw redfish stalks the marsh of Cameron LA
In Cameron Louisiana a seasoned guide, Mark Atwell, reels in a 15 pound redfish dubbed a chainsaw for tough scales. He guides in a private marsh near Calcasieu Lake, noting best months September to June and typical catches of 10 to 20 redfish for two. He emphasizes sight casting, calm marsh days, and preferred 12 pound test line with an oversized inline spinner as his top lure.
