This is good.
Very good.
Very happy to see this report.
Good work on the fish (and releasing her).
Great report, thanks for posting!

Dude, it was just your day. LOL Because Lake Borgne was NOT calm for me when I ran back across it.
I’m still sore from that ride. ha ha ha
“The mouth of Bayou Magill makes my stomach turn.”
You and me both. The only constant in Louisiana is change.
If I had omnipotent power, I’d snap my fingers and put her back the way she was before the levees were built.
Persistence and patience won the day.
Not just where you were fishing, but also where @timbofishn was at the Rock Dam.
But that’s what I like about this forum, we all give detailed enough reports to compare notes and see what we could have done better.
For me: slow my ass down. lol
Great report, thanks for posting!

Thank you for sharing this! I appreciate it.
I know we have some Garmin users here, so this is a good addition to the forum.

Sorry, just saw this.
Yeah man, I would 1,000% stay home, do tackle, grease bearings, anything but go do what’s obviously going to happen.
This front was pretty brutal. Fishing in 25mph wind and a water temp drop like is asking to re-learn what we already know.
Let it settle out. Let the fish adjust. Then go whack ’em.

That is an epic Viking sea-fairing run of a fishing trip, even by my standards.
It’s nice to make the run and see what’s out there, especially way out there on the edge of the Gulf. You just never know what you’re going to see.
But this cold front will change all of that!
Great report, thank you for posting!

Glad to see you back on the water just in time for the best fishing of the year!
Not a bad fishing trip at all to get back into the groove of things.

Outstanding. Waiting them out won the day.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Yeah, that east side of Lake Borgne doesn’t look great.
The grass just isn’t there to clean the water and make a home for bait fish.
The water is dead and it’s Snag City will all that dead grass drifting around it.
Sonar was absolutely lit up with trash when I was there.
Now, a note: before the rocks were installed we caught fish there anyway.
So I’m not sure that the grass is that important, but I certainly feel it made the east side much more attractive.
I doubt I’ll go back to it since there will be the bridges and Venice.

Well, I hope they enforce this at night! And I love the idea of giving wildlife a break. Hopefully some fish take advantage of it as well.
Thank you for following up and for sharing!

I’m gonna vote “digested finfish”.
That is not a mantis shrimp.
The “appendages” Gemini identified are the bones coming off the backbone.
You can literally see the backbone in the picture.

Giant +1

Yes. Exactly. lol

If I didn’t have that 10/14/26 report I’d absolutely be pulling my hair out right now.
I was thinking I could find the motherlode of slots and I was wrong.
Slow and steady won the day, not just at your spot, but also at the Rock Dam.
Sometimes it just pays to slow down, and I was not willing to do that for these fish and I paid for it. lol
Oh well, I’d rather get that box checked close to home than somewhere like Venice.

“Said it takes him an hour to get there.”
Holy smokes.
I have so much respect for the kayak guys.

It’s a slow riser. I really like it for fishing around snags and rocks.
