On a recent fishing trip, Patterson High 10th-grader Taylor Rodrigue had his tackle box stolen by an adult. When the tackle box was returned, the tackle was missing. Bayou Outdoors decided, as a foundation, to get Taylor baits donated by bait companies and a few local pro fishermen. On Tuesday, Taylor was surprised at the Morgan City police station. He and his father, Alvin Lodrigue, were also surprised by the foundation with an all-expenses-paid fishing trip in Texas. Patterson Mayor Rodney Grogan thanked Robbie Bower of Bayou Outdoors, Morgan City Police Chief Chad M. Adams and others for the gift.
