Thanks for the report. I’m glad y’all were able to find some Trout. Man, Grand Isle is tough these days.

Delacroix is a challenge. You navigated some waters that a lot of people are scared of and you made it out with you ass. Good job.

As for the fish, that will come. Summer time is hard for trout anyway but you can do a number on some redfish out of Delacroix. Just fish close to the river.

This report?

I am excited for you and do not blame you one bit for not wanting to chase those trout in this heat. Get some shade and hammer some reds in the kayak. I like that plan.

[Boyce]

Damn man. Those are some healthy Trout. You’ve been putting in the time down there and it’s paying off!

1. Empire. Hide behind the islands/beaches and fish the sandy points/oyster reefs. Scofield and Bastian Bays. Hoping the lee side and sandy bottoms wont be too messed up. Also a relatively quick run back to the marina should SHTF

Yes. I Like this. Fish behind all the islands.

2. Breton Island / Chandy. If we can even get out there and fully understanding that it’s going to be an ass kicker, we’re going to have to go slow. Again, sand bottom, and may be able to find a protected stretch. The fish that are in the sound are not going to leave the sound because of the storm, but they are going to find something that’s a little more protected/comfortable. Long run to safety though.

I like the thought process. The ride will suck but all the fish may be ganged up in a little cove and you would undoubtedly be the only people there LOL.

3. Lake Borgne shoreline from proctors to the east biloxi marsh shoreline. Depends on wind direction, but should hopefully find something protected. Least confidence in this plan for catching quality fish, mud bottom, not sand. Depending on where we go, could be a long run back to safety.

I mean yeah but no. I like the other two better.

But another thing I think you should strongly consider that fishes well on both a South and SW wind is the beach of Main Pass. And its protected getting there like 90% of the way.

Send it to Main Pass Drew!!!

Awesome trip and I’m glad y’all had a good time. That is gonna be some incredible eating.

But Geremy… deep dropping snapper in 100′ of water in June or Heavy Drop Shotting Speckled Trout in 25′ of water in the Jump in December?

Which one you picking my brother??????

[Boyce]

Delacroix definitely has better redfishing due to its proximity to the river.

Yes there are private areas of Delacroix, but I have never run into anything gated off nor has anyone run me out of any areas. Be respectful during duck season and you should be good to go.

The historical time slider on Google Earth has a lot of different images of Breton Island. If it were me, I’d go through that and mark the areas where the island used to be, then proceed with caution when I’m near them.

[Boyce]

Hell of a trip. Triple digit Trout is a core memory of fishing. Awesome job.

[Boyce]

@Jason_B I don’t really have much else to offer because Devin covered it all. But this is a solid plan and planning post. Go and whack those fish and make us proud!

[Boyce]

No one at 3 mile when I passed. 9 mile, 3 mile, grand pass all empty

[Boyce]

Im ready for it man. I can’t wait.

Its the Public Ramp at the Pontchartrain Yacht Club on the East end of the Lakefront. On a calm day you can send it into Lake Borgne from there.
