    If I were you I would do what @boyce said OR go west anyway, just to see it/learn it, then go further west and fish the islands like what @will-grand did in his report.

    4 Bayou is for sure going to be crowded.

    Great report, thanks for posting.

    What blows my mind is that @boyce was just east of you and didn’t find trout. Now, some guys could go into an area boiling with trout and somehow fk it up, but Boyce is not that guy. He’s a proven hitter. So if he doesn’t catch then I know that are most likely is not good to go.

    So what gives? I guess the trout are just further west? I have no idea.

    This is why we have these reports, to provide this resolution. Very interesting.

    The tide came in.

    Mississippi River is over 12ft and the Pearl is over six.

    I’ve seen otters and mink out there, too. It’s amazing what can live out there. I wonder how they put up with the bugs.

    Great report, thanks for posting!

    Not bad at all given the wind. Great work. I was hoping you’d catch fish and you did. Great report! Thanks for posting!

    I hate to hear that the fishing has been tough. That really bums me out.

    Either way, great report and thank you for taking time to post it!

    Hey Mike, thanks for saying hi and welcome to the Community. With that 24ft bay boat I’d be looking hard at punching into Breton Sound, wherever there is not river water. She cannot go down soon enough. Just taking her sweet time lol

    Okay, in that case don’t forget the Fourchon Barges and the beach right in front of them. I think someone said recently that the trout were on the beach first thing in the morning. Back in April that’s what I saw, too.

    I wouldn’t bother with the north Lake Borgne seeing that’s where the high Pearl River dumps its river water. I don’t think the solution here is to game the tide thinking that’s going to clear the water up. It’s not. The Pearl is at 6ft+ and dumping crap all over it.

    When the rivers are high like this my cheat code is to go west of the river. Port Fourchon, Cocodrie, Elmer’s Island, etc.

    I know that’s a haul, but that’s what I do to catch fish.

    OR

    Given that the wind will blow out of the south and west leading up to Saturday and on Saturday, it could be worth your time to hit the west side of Lake Pontchartrain for redfish and trout that haven’t made it out yet. Fish the rigs and powerlines out there.

    “I don’t have facebook (thanks Devin).”

    You’re welcome. That sh*t is brain cancer.

    “What is the best way to share phone numbers? Post email address in the group then email each other phone numbers?”

    Start a Signal chat, dudes. I don’t want a DM function on here because the forum will devolve into dude’s DMing each other on the sly instead of publicly posting, generating useful content and openly helping each other. I cannot stand people just DMing eachother fishing spots instead of applying the process. That’s what’s on Facebook (spoon feeding, not the process).

    Do you guys see me asking any of you for fishing spots? No. Do I catch fish? Yes. Use the damn process.

    But I can’t control outside comms, and I’m okay with that.

    After that, I understand most everyone has an iPhone, but Signal is a good way to keep one’s phone number masked (if that’s important) and data is more prevalent than cellular. iMessage is good, but if someone has an Android then you are going to have annoying green text and rely on SMS over data.

    That and people should just know how to use Signal. Not hard.

    It’s definitely a cultural thing.

    What’s interesting is that I never heard of that guy. lol Like, what did that amazing feat really do for him?
