Okay, so I have time to look this over and here’s what I got:

I see you have Jimmie Canal or “?_is this canal passable” marked.

I have not ran that, but at first glance I would 90% send it, and I have way more to lose than you do in a Z520C.

In 10/13/25 imagery you can see a row of crab traps pretty much going down the entire canal.

I do see something toward the north end of the canal on 10/29/12 imagery that could be suspect.

So I would enter the canal watching the depth (if equipped) and slow down and look to see what’s at that spot when you get there.

Okay, with that out of the way, I’ll look at the rest of the trip.

Those are really cool!

Of course, it seems like there’s enough breaks in the weather to warrant a fishing trip.

Gotta go to know! Fish are already wet!

[Devin]

You’re positive that this extends to fishing?

[Devin]

Thanks for posting, when I get time I will take a closer look.

That’s so weird that Martello didn’t have anything going on. The tide was ripping out, right? It should have had some action there given the predicted tide.

Good job adjusting to Plan Redfish, though.

Every year is different, and it seems like the shrimp/trout are showing up in other places.

Maybe after this cold front Martello will turn on.

I know that (in the past) I did not crush fish there until the water temp was in the high 70s.

Great report, thanks for posting!

JG Land & Marine on Pontchartrain Drive in Slidell did a transom for me a couple years ago.

They are worth looking at. They did good work.

“using subsurface Double D”

What an awesome lure.

I would def find some places with more finfish that those big girls are gonna key in on, since that’s what you’re after.

They’ll start stacking up soon. I think you already have an idea as where to try since you’ve been fishing that area a lot.

Great report, thanks for posting. This cold front hitting this week should kick off fall.

That boat is plenty to do what you want to do. It’s the angler, not the equipment, that gets the result, right?

“My main target on the water anytime I go are the trout 20″ and above.”

I hear that. That’s pretty much my goal now. I have to remind myself that I don’t need to run the hamster wheel of finding limits of trout anymore. It’s kind of a relief.

I still enjoy sight fishing reds, but catching limits of slot trout and seeing reds eat is nowhere as rewarding as catching the thick girls. lol

I’ll do Heavy Hitters if time allows. We will see. I’ve been on the fence about it.

I saw some guys fishing the Hwy 90 bridge in the dark on Saturday, which was interesting. Not sure if they were catching or not.

How were the live pogies rigged? Carolina rig? Any idea on the weight?

Great report, thanks for posting!

[Devin]

You’re not stepping on anything I believe in at all.

You are preaching the truth, brother.

[Devin]

Ohhhhhhh, I just assumed you meant the entire WMA.

If that’s the case, then no big deal.

There’s not such stellar fall/winter fishing in the shaded-duck area anyway. lol

If they meant Bayou Biloxi itself I would’ve found that odd.

[Devin]

You’re the man. Thank you.

[Devin]

How has it held up since you got them?

[Devin]

Yeah, you get it! Absolutely!

I’m all about saving fuel with the current prices!
