Lagniappe
Here in New Orleans we have something called Lagniappe which is the equivalent of a baker’s dozen where you get 13 donuts so you can eat one on the way home to bring the dozen. That’s what I call this tip I got from a fisherman we stopped to talk to on the bayou on the way home. I noticed a fish flopping by his bucket and took Tin over to get a look at it. The guy said, “Here’s how you catch a fish in this bayou – grass shrimp. You have to go get the grass shrimp from City Park and that is what these fish like.”
Grass shrimp – who knew?
