Again, not bad given that it’s close to home. If you don’t mind fishing at night, maybe fishing Treasure Isle at Slidell would be good. Especially if the tide is ripping out. If it’s ripping too hard, then try Olimpic Beach (it’s nearby) or make the short run to Lake Catherine’s dock lights.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Did the trout go nuts when the tide started falling?
Great report. This is what we should be seeing: smacking limits of speckled trout.
Thank you for posting it!

Gus’s Tackle in Slidell has them, as well as Chag’s Sporting Goods.

What a great report. Beat the heat and everything. I may have to get out there soon. Thank you so much for posting!

I went that way because it’s faster. And, if the wind is blowing (depending on direction) more protected.

I’d fish Quad 1.
I’d also fish the weirs in the river like at 1:13:30 in this video. I’d also fish the rock jetties perpendicular to the flow of water at the mouth of SW Pass, near the pilot house like you see at 2:13:05 in that same video.
Add those spots to Quad 1. I’m hoping that the rocks on the SE side of SW Pass (the outside on the west side of East Bay) are in your file as well. I’d also fish the mouth of Joseph Bayou where it dumps out and eventually flows into the top of East Bay.
I’d also venture into East Bay and fish the beach and rigs, like in previous reports here in this forum. Use the search function to learn more.
South Pass for sure, especially the outside of the rocks.
I’d also look at Blind Bay. Look at my 3-26-25 tracks for that.
The rest of the stuff you have listed could be good. I have no idea. Quad 5 and Quad 6 seem like long runs if you’re gonna be out there that long burning that much gas. I can foresee a stop at the marina to refuel if you make those runs.
Wherever you go, take it easy. Lots of silted in land, oilfield trash, etc.
I’m hoping you and your buddies have radios to chat with each other.

Some of these tracks are older, so check them. It’s on you. If you F up out there, that’s your problem. Don’t F up!!!!
We will expect a detailed fishing report in turn for gold info like this. Don’t let us down!
Also, for the lurkers, put in a good planning post and you’ll get good info in return! That’s how it works here. Go to Facebook if you need to be spoonfed.

These tracks from 3-26-25 will get you there. They go right past one of the campgrounds and near another.

Yeah, I have a friend in Florida who poked himself on a hook that had been out of the water for days and got a mean bacterial infection. He’s a sailor in his late 30s and he still had to get surgery, antibiotics, etc.
It just happens. Definitely a risk that comes with enjoying the water. Y’all stay safe.

Ah, thanks for bringing it up. I think this is what you’re looking for: https://www.lafishblog.com/vibrio-vulnificus/

You can catch some on the inside right now.
If you’re planning to go fishing then you should make a new planning post. Don’t hijack this one. When you do make a planning post, include as much information as you can. The more the better. The more we have, the more feedback we can give you. Tell us where you plan to launch from, the boat you’re taking, the conditions, what tackle you plan on using, etc.

I love that micro brew analogy.
