Great report, thanks for posting!

Those are some nice fish and good pictures. All that you fished is probably gonna turn on more. There are definitely (or at least were) plenty of trout on the inside.
I was catching them at the power lines on the west side of Lake P a couple weekends ago. So more fish are gonna come out of the lake, or at least this is what I am assuming.
If it’s overcast out, or first thing in the morning/late in evening I would throw topwater on the shallow coves of east Lake Borgne, if wind permits. That def worked for me and should work through this month.

What tackle exactly are you using to fish with at the Trestles?
-
And how are you using it?

Best topic title ever.
I hear ya. It is what it is. Just gotta adapt or use this time to do maintenance, something else.

Aric, thank you for bringing this up.
Yeah, the only battery I’m changing out is the chest cam battery. The slickest way to run a chest cam for what I do is just to use the batteries.
All the other cameras run off the house battery, with the exception of the console cam, which will be run off the house battery whenever I get around to installing that wire. lol
I’ve used a few Yoloteks and have two of them, one of which I run on Gnartooth (the old flatboat). I 1,000% recommend NOT running it on something like my tracker because the receptacle is held by friction, not by a lock or screw threads. I will come flying out and then kiss your camera good bye. I’ve left more than jigheads on Louisiana’s sea floor. LOL
Now I use a painter extension with 10ft charging cables, media mods, backup cables, zip ties, and motorcycle USB adapters to the house battery and 512GB SD cards. I turn the cameras on and leave them on (mostly).
I’ve tried running a cable from a large battery pack to the chest cam, but it’s unsightly, extra gear, not waterproof and fails more than batteries do.

Get your boat squared away! The fishing is only going to get better!
Thank you for the report.

Coming back with 30 trout is great. Good to know they’re solidly out there.
Excellent report, thank you for posting it!

I’m not sure what the wind was doing, but I am thinking fish are still spread out more across the lake than one would otherwise think. I was catching them further west on the powerlines and I’ve heard of some coming from Seabrook.

Otherwise, great report, thanks for posting!

Good to have you back, Andre! Thanks for posting a report.

“I have been noticing lately that the bigger trout are biting throughout the day instead of early morning. Has anyone else seen this?”
Is this observation based off one trip?
“Is this new fish bite pattern related to the hard freeze we had?”
No.
“Any other factors contributing to this?”
It’s spring.
“The big fish were loaded with eggs and we caught a lot of croaking males.”
It’s spring. Very normal.
“My daughter said it was an answer to prayer to do this with me before she ships out to Japan in July”
I’m glad y’all had a good one and got to spend quality time together!
Great report, thanks for posting!

Perfect straight and to the point report.
Glad to know fish are out there, they should be really hitting there this time of year.
Thanks for posting!

“They have been elusive to me.”
Yeah, because they’ve all been shot at night.
Go somewhere there’s no bow fishing charters or way more reds. I’d look hard at the MRGO south of the Rock Dam. I’ve seen double prop scars in Biloxi Marsh, so I wouldn’t look there.

That is badass.
Man, I’m about to pull the trigger on some kickass batteries I don’t really “need”, but I “need”. lol
