Tremendous trip. Doesn’t get much better than that.

YES. The weather looks like crap though. UGH.

Sounds like an awesome month for you.
Thanks for the tips on the patterns the fish are on. That will be very helpful for my trip next week. Now I just need the weather to play nice.

Nice report and give yourself a pat on the back for trying something “new”.
Keep hammering those trips out and eventually it’ll all come together.

One thing you have going in your favor is that you’re fishing a Monday and the boat traffic will be significantly less. With the falling tide and less boat traffic, if I were you I’d rig up 8-10 heavy drop shots and put them in plastic bags. Launch and head straight to Martello Castle and fish the heavy drop shop as close to the castle as you can. I’d be surprised if you don’t smoke them.
The Long Rocks are way down at the end of the MRGO towards Breton Sound. Off the table for tomorrow and you don’t want to run that far anyway.
After your limit at the castle, go hit up the flat in the MRGO near the wall and drift it with a popping cork.

Not Mary Bowers specifically, but it does appear that I can get into Mary Bowers from Main Pass and pretty much access the same area that Baptiste route would lead to me.
I’ll be there from this Thursday-Sunday (Dec. 4-7). If you’re down there hit me up 225-955-9262.

Yeah, I’m concerned with the mouth of that bayou where it dumps into Buras Bayou. I want to get down there because I want to sight fish that pond (starting from the bottom nearest the river and working back towards Breton Sound). I’ve never been in that pond so I’m unsure how sight fishing would go.
Being that its duck season I might as well wait till the afternoon.
I’ve got a few routes crossing from Baptiste to Main Pass. I think one runs through Emiline. I’ll post it up later and get feedback.
Thanks again for the insight.

MemberNovember 29, 2025 at 2:48 pm in reply to: Is this route from Cypress Cove to Cubit’s Gap Safe?I appreciate the insight. I run a 17 ft aluminum bass boat so I like to try to avoid the river if at all possible. I’ve ran it in my boat many times, even once from the mouth of SW Pass all the way to Baptiste, but if I can avoid it I’d like it.
If you’re saying it doesn’t save that much time, I might as well just run the river. Though it would be nice to have those tracks.
