Interesting use of AI. lol Great read.
“THE FISH OF DECADE ARE CORK‑LOYALISTS.”
I have no idea how many videos or reports I need to make to illustrate this reality. Behold! The Lake Decade Standard Operating Procedure:
1. Tie on a popping cork.
2. Put something chartreuse under it.
3. When you cast, ensure it lands in Lake Decade.
I’m hoping those sparkle beetles were chartreuse, because if they weren’t….
Either way, I think this report seals the deal on Decade: it’s a dud this year. That really sucks. That area is beautiful and it’s just plain fun to fish.
Above all, I’m glad the nephew had a good time and mastered a new skill. I hope he continues to dig inshore fishing.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Lake Decade is your best cork option IF the trout are there. And from what I understand it’s mostly unknown and what we do know in this forum are some scant reports not reporting anything like last year.
An HDS bite is an easy bite, too. No need to cast. Just drop it over the side of the boat. This is what The Jump does. So consider that.

Yeah, I think The Wall is just gonna be a drag because everyone and their mom is fishing it. No surprise there.
But I do think that going to Decade could be worth your time. I know I know, it’s pressured, too. But there’s more room and outside the grasp of the Greater NOLA Flotilla.
Man, I hope it’s on right now. That would be great. I’m rooting for you!!!

Looks like you’re running a milk run you’re familiar with. And I think you will catch fish (probably limit out) running it.
That’s great. Go have fun.
But now is also a good time to explore what’s not been fished. I do think there’s a ledge game further north starting at Baptiste Colette working all the way up to Mardi Gras Pass.
Normally I’d be quiet about it and just go find it myself, then film it, and leave all the potlickers on YouTube guessing where I’m at. But alas, it is not meant to be this season! lol
But it could be you instead…or @ShooterMcGrabbin @Boyce or anyone else willing to risk striking out.

Man, I appreciate the shout out but the short story is that I just simply do not have access to those files right now. Whatever is on this forum is what’s available. Which is more than enough because Venice has been heavily documented by a slew of pipehitters.
Honestly, I’d check out ledges starting at Buras and work my way south. The likelihood of finding something no one else is on is pretty good.

Yes, I know guys have caught trout off the bank and in a kayak from that launch. I think you have a chance if you decide to go. The colder, the better.

Awesome report, thank you for posting!
-
Man, not bad at all. I’ve fished those rocks before and only ever caught a few. I’ve kept trying it over the years thinking that for sure they ought to pay off. Sounds like you figured it out. Excellent work. Thanks for posting!
-
It sounds like this is a great time to give Venice a try. It will be a haul, but the reports out of there have been pretty danged good.
You could try Lake Decade, but I have no idea if it’s turned on yet.
Use the search function, there are reports for both places from this year and last. I’ve got some good videos on my YouTube channel, too.

I couldn’t tell you where the bigger trout went. But it definitely seems to me that speckled trout use ledges in the river to travel on. Which is good to know and test theories on, but also is tough because there’s a ton of ledges in the river. lol The fish could have moved further north, which is why I’ve mentioned before to look further north. Like, way further north.
If you catch fish at 25ft, fish other ledges at 25ft.
It’s totally possible that you just missed them and that’s simply all there is to it. Fishing is trying to outsmart an animal you cannot see that possesses a pea-sized brain.
-
Yeah, I think you know what you need to do.
A+ for the effort. Venice is gorgeous, isn’t it?
And thank you for coming back and letting us know how you did. That’s putting some skin in the game. The rest of the guys here will be more apt to help you. It’s tiring when people come asking for advice then never report back.

What about Lake Decade?
