I have no intel on this, my guess is to fish the reefs and graph for them if you can. If you see a jack on megahertz frequencies, you will know it’s a jack.

I know I mentioned this to y’all one-on-one before, but you guys have done an excellent job representing inshore fishing and building Louisiana Legends in a very short amount of time.
Y’all came out the gates swinging with great guests and regularly scheduled content.
Excellent work. Keep it up. Good things are coming.

Man, I wish I saw this sooner. I was slammed Monday through today. I’m staying up late catching up in here.
Well, you hit it on the head: yes, the 4th and especially the 5th were great days to sight fish. I was in Buras yesterday and we 1,000% could have sight fished if we wanted to. Great conditions
And I think YCB is an excellent location to do that. I would’ve been pumped to hit YCB if it were me.
Hope you made out alright!

Man, I wish I saw this sooner. I was bowed up all day since Monday.
First of all, you have a great boat for sight fishing. I looked it up and that’s an absolute redfish pond machine.
After that, I’m not saying there’s no reds in that area you highlighted. But I am saying that’s not where I would look (and I have ran Dularge/Dulac extensively for redfish) if someone put a gun to my head and said I had to find redfish somewhere.
I bet there’s little to no grass in the highlighted area. You want aquatic grass. That boat you have is not a cork boat. That’s what bay boats with charter clients do. They have to wait for redfish to come to them.
You don’t. You can go to the redfish’s home, kick in the door and drag him out.
If I were you, I’d look hard at Lake Decade, Lake Paige, Eagle Lake, Lost Lake and Lake Carencro.
Get to where there’s river water (or at least the influence of it) and grass. I’ve done some really good sight fishing in all those places.
The ponds north of Lake Boudreaux are really good, too. But that’s all Apache Corps land and they can be weird about it.
You mentioned Salvador in your profile and I think that’s worth hitting, too.
I hope you did alright and had fun out there. Dulac is pretty.
Let us know how you did if you get time.
And I hope next time I can catch your planning post sooner.

That’s awesome your wife fishes with you.
And not a bad day of fishing!
Thank you so much for contributing a fishing report from the west side of the state. I’d really love to build a solid user base out there. More than a few west-side anglers have come and gone over the years.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Well, I think a west wind is fine to fish in, but the wind has been blowing and that would make fishing tough regardless of direction.
Great report, thanks for posting.
I’m ready for fall!
-
The planets are aligning.
I think this fall is gonna be great, but there’s gonna be some needle-haystack factor.
The fish are gonna have lots of good water to be in. But if you can find ’em….

Solid effort in tough conditions.
And thank you for taking time to report back.
-
Man, it’s just hot. It’s that time of year.
I’m not fishing at all and instead getting ahead on content and maintenance for fall.
You did good in a tough fishery in tough conditions.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Yeah, they’re pretty badass!

That is such a crazy jump in salinity in such a short sprawl! I’m not surprised, that sounds about right!

The two coves and big point on the west side of Bay Eloi.

Dude, so pumped for you.
The turbidity meter at Belle Chasse shows the river is still kinda dirty.
BUT, that will change.
Just waiting for some decent imagery to confirm.
