“Got a one man limit at 10:30. Could have gone for 30 with my son along but it would have been a grind and I prefer not to freeze fish.”
Outstanding. It’s good to have some fish go back in the water (or remain there).
“only 2-3 had to be measured”
That sounds about right. It’s nice not fishing in Throwback City, huh?
Man, great report. I appreciate the detail on the bait, that really helps know what’s going on.
Moving forward, you guys will see more shrimp, and I don’t see any reason why you can’t stay on these fish all the way to Black Bay in June.
The River will help corral them up when she rises, but it’s looking like she’s not going to do anything beyond 10ft, which is nuts. Hopefully she comes up, makes for a good spring, then goes down and lets the fish stay in closer for their spawn. That would be amazing.
Great report, thanks for posting!

“Said he came all the way down from Shell Beach because he heard on a forum”
I would hope that’s @JonFisher
Otherwise, let’s not invite the Greater NOLA Flotilla into an area that otherwise has not been frequented by that zombie horde since 2011.

Yeah Pointe Fienne is a well known community hole. It’s gonna have a parking lot on a spring Saturday, fish or not.
“Continuing on I seen Jason in Third Bay and spoke briefly.”
To pull him out? lol jk
“Jason also came and joined in on the fun.”
Thank you for putting him on the fish.

Wow, conditions are pretty good for that day. Wind, not too much or too little, overcast all day, good incoming tide.
Not a bad plan. I bet you go in there and catch a few redfish (which is a limit these days).
I assume you’re chunking and winding that jighead? Why not something louder/flashier like a spinnerbait, chatterbait or spoon?
I’d be confident with a 1/2 oz The Secret gold spoon.
After that, I feel you on the falling tide part. It’d be a lot nicer to drain those bayous and put fish at the mouth of them.
What I don’t like is that you’re only fishing one stretch of shoreline. Granted, it’s a massive stretch. For sure there has to be something in there. But if that doesn’t pan out, where else can you fish?
I’d look hard at the point on the north side of Chef Pass where it dumps into Lake Pontchartrain on a rising tide (which you will have).
That big wide shallow shoreline in Alligator Bend, I’d consider that, too. Could be good to drift with topwater.
After that, I’d go to Delacroix. It’s turned on and now is a good time to learn it. But that’s on you. I personally like finding lots of fish. Do what’s best for you.
Some constructive criticism: I wouldn’t rely on the solunar period. I have not found those to matter at all. Might as well get your palm read in the French Quarter.
I’m not big on live bait, but soaking it under a cork for redfish could work. I do think you’re better off beating the bank with a lure.
Good luck!

Were birds diving at all?

“I was thinking not good on the first cast.”
I’ve never thought that. Always loved it. More power to it. Best spots under right conditions do that.
“the bait was jumping all over”
What bait? Shrimp? Minnows? Mullet?
Did you see anything on the graph at all?

I check my email. See that I got a notification that there’s been a new fishing report. Begin reading it, bracing myself for a bad trip.
But no. This is an epic trip. Fck yeah. Mission accomplished.
Way to go, Geremy. Thou hast redeemed thyself in the Hache.
I am not worthy! I am not worthy!

Yeah whatever, you jumped straight into Venice and kicked ass. That says a lot.
-
That’s crazy. Even with the error maxed out on the high end, it’s still not reaching 12ft or anything nuts like that. If that’s the best the River will do this spring….well, if she goes down early that will be icing on the cake.
Man, y’all are gonna slaughter the fish.
-
Sounds good, be sure to let us know!
-
It could, or it could make the rip less distinct, blurring the edge. Regardless, the fish are there because bait is there. If the bait remains in the dirty stuff, so will the fish.
I’ve got more than one YouTube video showing me catching them in the dirty stuff in or near the River. Watch your graph.

I love that Wal-Mart idea!!!
