The water in lake Pontchartrain, the Rigolets, and northwest Lake Borgne has been near zero visibility for most of March. Strong gusty winds have muddied almost every shoreline – the lee shores will clear up in 2-3 days, but the winds has been switching direction every couple of days. The Pearl River was running over 16-ft. at the beginning of March (and is still around 14-ft.), adding its muddy load to the mix, so it’s been a struggle to find fishable water anywhere. I’ve been skunked twice in recent weeks, and what few fish I’ve found have been widely scattered, so your experience is about what I’ve seen, too. Thanks for the report!
