A great redfish report! That’s a breath of fresh air. I’m sure you had a blast doing it.
Excellet report and thank you for posting!

Also, FWIW — going off of last year’s trips to Biloxi Marsh — it never really turned on, at least not for me.
Consider that place is my “alma mater”, I know where to go and when to be there, guided clients there, etc. and last year on November 8th it was a struggle (report here).
Yes, I caught 18 specks, but I had to work my butt off for them. Fish should be jumping in the boat during November.
December 30th was more or less the same, 18 specks, had to move to find them.
Like, I should be easily catching 25+. A great day would be 50 by myself. That totally used to happen regularly.
But one place that has delivered on the magic has been Venice (so long as the river stays down) and (once it cooled off) Dularge (or just Lake Decade). A close second is anywhere influenced by the Mississippi River, like Pointe a la Hache or Delacroix.
So, if I were you, I’d start exploring those areas. At least do Delacroix.

What’s going on here? Why does everything seem to be in decline?

Very interesting.
How do you load GPS data into it? Does it need Humminbird PC and an “encrypted” SD card or does it take a straight GPX file?

So, your report sounds about right with the water temp being what it is. It’s still warm. Let it get around ~74 and those spots will be on fire with keepers.
Of course, by then, you’ll want to be in the River.
And why do trolling motors only seem to break the day of the fishing trip? lol
Great report. I think you did well despite the water temp. Thanks for posting!

Well, simply uploading a .gpx file is a lot easier than using HBPC. I wonder if there’s an app to assist with that.
-
Yup, same here.

Okay, so it’s not an issue with the number of teal, but that it has just been warmer and they are staying further north?
It is definitely warmer this year (and last year). Definitely cooler in previous years.
The only constant is change. And this change sucks. lol

Those Coast Guard transmission are surely coming out of a far more powerful transmitter. At least 25 watts. Handheld VHF radios do something like 5 watts. So, not much. But better than nothing.

Good call on the app.

Which is ridiculous compared to what it used to be. I remember the owner of LASM telling me they’d shoot ducks until they ran out of ammo. lol
