8 NOV 2024 · As of November 8, 2024, the fishing scene in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in Louisiana, is looking very promising. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 75 degrees and a gentle breeze out of the southeast. Tides are moderate, with high tide at around 9:30 AM and low tide at 3:30 PM, providing good movement and access to various fishing spots. Sunrise is at 6:45 AM, and sunset is at 5:15 PM, giving you ample daylight.
Yesterday saw a lot of action, especially for speckled trout and redfish. Anglers reported catching a good number of speckled trout in the 20-inch range, making them perfect for the pan. Redfish were also plentiful, with several slot-sized fish caught in the marshes and shallow flats.
For speckled trout, using ultraviolet matrix shad tied to a fluorocarbon leader with an oddball rattle cork has been effective. For redfish, a 3/4 oz gold spoon with a swivel tied directly to braided fishing line is a reliable choice. Live shrimp under a popping cork and mullet or shrimp free-lined along rocks and shell flats are also producing good results.
If you're looking for hot spots, consider heading to the marshes around Venice, where bull reds and speckled trout are always active. Diving birds are a good indicator of schools of baitfish in this area. Another spot is Baffin Bay, where early morning shallow water fishing is still successful. Look for areas with jumping bait and small slicks, indicating feeding activity.
In the coastal waters, areas like Port Mansfield, particularly near deep water drop-offs and along the Intracoastal Waterway, have been productive. The East Cut and jetties here are worth a visit, using mullet and shrimp as bait.
Overall, with the right gear and knowledge of the tides and fish behavior, today should be a great day to catch some impressive fish in the Gulf of Mexico's Louisiana waters.

7 NOV 2024 · If you're heading out to fish in the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana today, here's what you need to know:
First off, the tides are moderate, with a high tide around 9:00 AM and a low tide at 3:00 PM. Sunrise was at 6:34 AM, and sunset will be at 5:14 PM.
The weather is looking decent, though there might be some light winds and possibly some rain later in the week, but for now, it's relatively calm.
Yesterday saw a lot of action, especially for speckled trout and redfish. Anglers were catching a good number of speckled trout in the 20-inch range, particularly in the lakes and ponds of the Biloxi Marsh. Redfish were also plentiful, with many limits caught in the marsh areas around Buras and Venice.
For speckled trout, using live shrimp under a popping cork or artificial lures like LSU-colored 3-inch plastics worked well. Redfish were biting on shrimp, piggy perch, and cut mullet or skipjack, especially on the flats, sand pockets, and along the islands.
If you're targeting bull reds, head upriver or downriver between Empire and Venice, as Capt. Tori Arnona recommends. For a more secluded spot, consider Montegut, which gets less fishing pressure than Cocodrie or Grand Isle but offers some of the best fishing in the area.
Inshore fishing charters have been successful, with guides like Jason Williams putting anglers on fish quickly. The marshes around Boothville-Venice have been particularly productive for redfish and trout.
So, grab your gear, and don't forget to check the weather forecast before you head out. With the right lures and bait, you should have a great day on the water. Good luck

3 NOV 2024 · As of November 3, 2024, the fishing scene in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in Louisiana, is looking very promising. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Tides
The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 75 degrees and a gentle breeze out of the southeast. Tides are moderate, with high tide at around 9:30 AM and low tide at 3:30 PM, which should provide good movement and access to various fishing spots.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 6:45 AM, and sunset is at 5:15 PM, giving you ample daylight to enjoy your fishing trip.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a lot of activity with speckled trout, redfish, and even some bull reds. The trout are consistently being caught in the 20-inch range, especially when drifting oyster reefs in 3 to 5 feet of water. Redfish are active in the marsh areas, particularly where there is moving water and bait.
### Types and Amounts of Fish
Speckled trout and redfish are the main catches right now. There have been reports of catching a good number of trout and filling limits on redfish. Additionally, some anglers have encountered bull reds, jacks, and sharks due to the abundant bait in the bays.
### Best Lures and Bait
For speckled trout, using live or dead shrimp with a popping cork or drifting oyster reefs with Boat Monkey corks against the grass in broken marsh areas has been highly effective. For redfish, live or dead shrimp, as well as cut skipjack or mullet, are working well. The big tide swings have pushed bait over the reefs, making these areas prime for fishing.
### Hot Spots
- **Louisiana Marshes**: Drifting oyster reefs and fishing in broken marsh areas with shells against the banks have been producing great results for speckled trout and redfish.
- **Boothville-Venice**: This area is known for its inshore fishing, particularly for redfish and trout. Guides like Jason Williams have been putting clients on fish quickly.
With the cooler weather setting in, it's an excellent time to be out on the water, enjoying the more comfortable conditions and the active fish. Make sure to get all your gear ready and take advantage of the prime fishing spots along the Louisiana coastline.

1 NOV 2024 · As of November 1, 2024, the fishing scene in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in Louisiana, is looking promising. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Tides
The weather is mild, with temperatures in the mid to upper 70s, making it ideal for a day of fishing. Sunrise was at around 7:15 AM, and sunset is expected at about 6:30 PM. Tides are moderate, with a high tide in the late morning and a low tide in the early afternoon.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a good amount of activity, especially for speckled trout and redfish. The marshes and coastal waters are undergoing a transformation as the summer heat gives way to cooler breezes, making this a great time to target these species.
### Catch Reports
Anglers reported catching a fair number of speckled trout, particularly in the shallow waters of Baffin Bay and around the jetties of Port Aransas. Redfish were also abundant, with many caught in the flats and sand pockets using shrimp, piggy perch, and cut mullet. Black drum were fair, biting on live or dead shrimp and fish bites in drains and along oyster beds.
### Best Lures and Bait
For speckled trout, imitation shrimp lures under popping corks with 12-18 inch leaders have been very effective. Alternatively, using 1/8 ounce jig heads with Wac Attack and Deadly Dudley tails in lighter colors has also produced continuous bites. For redfish, silver spoons and live shrimp have been the go-to choices. Soft plastics, especially those mimicking small baitfish, have also been productive for slot-sized trout.
### Hot Spots
- **Baffin Bay**: Early morning shallow water fishing here is still successful. Look for areas with jumping bait and small slicks, indicating feeding activity.
- **Port Mansfield**: Target areas near deep water drop-offs and along the Intracoastal Waterway. The East Cut and jetties have been productive with mullet and shrimp.
- **Venice**: The marshes around Venice are always a hotspot for bull reds and speckled trout. Diving birds are a good indicator of schools of baitfish.
With the right gear and knowledge of the tides and fish behavior, today should be a great day to catch some impressive fish in the Gulf of Mexico's Louisiana waters.

31 OCT 2024 · Today, October 31st, the fishing scene in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in the Louisiana marshes, is looking promising despite the cooler weather setting in. Here’s what you need to know:
### Tidal and Weather Conditions
Sunrise was at around 7:15 AM, and sunset is expected at about 6:30 PM. Tides are moderate, with a high tide in the late morning and a low tide in the early evening. The weather is mild, with temperatures in the mid-70s to low 80s, making it ideal for a day on the water.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a lot of activity from both speckled trout and redfish. The cooler days have started to push the fish into more predictable patterns. Bull reds and jacks are schooling in large numbers, especially in areas like the marshes around Yscloskey and the oyster reefs in Biloxi Marsh.
### Catch Report
Anglers reported catching numerous speckled trout, particularly in the morning hours when the birds were working over schools of shrimp. Redfish were also plentiful, with many slot-sized fish caught in the shallow flats, cuts, and bayous within the marsh. Some groups managed to catch up to 9 hard-fighting redfish in a single trip.
### Best Lures and Bait
For speckled trout, ultraviolet matrix shad tied to a fluorocarbon leader with an oddball rattle cork worked well. For redfish, a 3/4 oz H&H weedless gold spoon with a swivel tied directly to braided fishing line was highly effective. Live shrimp under a popping cork or gulp with a jig head also produced good results.
### Hot Spots
One of the hot spots is the oyster reefs located in 5 to 8 feet of water in the Biloxi Marsh. These areas are known for their early-season trout and redfish activity. Another spot is the shallow flats, cuts, and bayous within the marsh, where redfish tend to patrol, especially as the weather cools down.
### Additional Tips
Keep an eye out for diving birds, as they often indicate schools of baitfish, which in turn attract larger game fish. As the tides drop and the weather cools, expect shrimp to flush out of the marsh, attracting more game fish. Be prepared to move around to different spots, as the fish can be finicky, but the rewards are well worth the effort.
With the right gear and knowledge of the local waters, today promises to be a great day for fishing in the Gulf of Mexico's Louisiana marshes.

25 OCT 2024 · If you're heading out to fish in the Gulf of Mexico around Louisiana today, here's what you can expect:
First off, the weather is looking pretty favorable. The temperatures are in the lower 80s, and the seas are expected to be calm with waves of 3 feet or less, making it ideal for both inshore and offshore fishing. Sunrise is around 6:55 AM, and sunset will be at about 6:30 PM.
Tides are moderate, with a high tide in the late morning and a low tide in the early evening. This tidal pattern should help flush out some baitfish from the marshes, attracting more game fish.
Yesterday's fishing was excellent, especially for redfish and speckled trout. Anglers reported catching large schools of bull reds and jacks, particularly in the marsh areas around Yscloskey. Redfish were abundant, with many anglers hitting their limits quickly. Speckled trout were also plentiful, especially in the morning hours.
For lures, live shrimp and finger mullet have been the best bets. For those preferring artificial lures, silver spoons and soft plastics have been producing good results. If you're targeting redfish, try using shrimp under a popping cork or cut mullet in the flats and sand pockets.
Some hot spots to consider include the marshes around Yscloskey, where the reds and trout have been schooling in large numbers. Another good spot is along the jetties, where bull redfish and oversized drum have been biting on blue crab and Spanish sardines.
Overall, it's a great time to be out on the water in Louisiana, with plenty of fish to go around and favorable conditions to make your trip enjoyable. Just remember to use non-stainless steel circle hooks when using natural bait, and don't forget your Recreational Offshore Landing Permit if you're after red snapper, though the season for that has already closed for this year.
