Not a bad day at all given the conditions. The wind has just been insane this week. Great report!

Great report. Thank you!
-
Great report again! Good to know about the eggs.
-
Some really, really valuable info in this report. Pure gold. Much of this I will be taking to GED later.
Staying down there and getting to sleep 3 extra hours makes all the difference in the world too. God I love that place.
Looking forward to your book as well, that’s gotta be a pretty exciting feeling being on the cusp of your first book release.
Thank you for the report!

Excellent report. Thank you!

I went ahead and made my own route to compare to yours and I think we came up with about the same thing. Redfish bay is just sooooooo sketchy it’s ridiculous! Here’s the route I made and I’ll add more thoughts replying to this.
-
After all that, I think your route is probably good, but I would be idling through almost all of Redfish Bay if it were me.

I just have no idea about this part of Redfish Bay based of the imagery from 9/17/23. The 1/17/2021 imagery had really low water and shows that it was good to go then.
-
But on 9/17/23 you have lower unit killers like this out there. Like f*ck that.

I made a route going around this sketchiness in Redfish bay, and swing around past the mouth of where it says “Mississippi River”. It looks like that Shrimp? Boat ran straight out the mouth of that pass. 1/17/21 imagery.
-
Here’s the route with that swing

@Devin another thing Buck Perry says is not to think about weather in terms of TEMPERATURE, but rather in terms of LIGHT. As in how much light will there be during the day based off the cloud cover, pre-frontal conditions, overcast, foggy, or on the opposite end: will it be bluebird skies or not? His theory as that light affects the fish behavior more than anything.
So to add to what @cliffhall and @ShooterMcGrabbin are saying, perhaps the light conditions associated with low barometric pressure (oftentimes overcast, cloud cover, rainy, foggy, etc) have the fish more active and migrating and feeding more. As opposed to a high barometric pressure day where its bluebird skies and sunny as all get out, Buck Perry says the fish migrate and feed less on those days.
I’ve seen that video Shooter posted about CA, and that definitely made me start looking at it more and just paying attention to it. But like anything with fishing, I don’t think it’s an end all be all metric to lose sleep over.
This is a great topic and thread by the way.
