This is very helpful! I’ve been planning a trip exactly like yours for this coming Tuesday 3/11. I have (maybe had now, lol) plans to hit a few flats south of the wall and fish a few points and drift oyster reefs in Lake Athanasio. Nothing planned for Eloi.
Looking at today’s satellite imagery on NASA Worldview, that chocolate milk river water has made it to the very end of the long rocks, so that makes since why the water down there was dirtier.
Great report man, I really appreciate it! May switch some things up now based off of your report. I’ll definitely follow up and post a report after my trip Tuesday. Thank you!

Appreciate the heads up. Thank you!

Sweet!! Thank you for the report.

This is hilarious! You have a gift sir. Please keep them coming. lol

Nice trip! Thank you for the report.
The spinning combo I like to use for popping corks, HDS rigs, and double rigs is a St Croix Triumph M power, fast action, with a Shimano Stradic. I love it! The combo is a bit pricy but very light and very tough.

LOL! That’s awesome! Thank you for the humor!
-
Nice!! Sounds like you had two really fun trips. Thank you for the report!

Great report man. Thank you!

Ahh yeah, tough day, but on the bright side, you didn’t get skunked, haha. Thanks for the report!

I feel like East Delacroix is going to be the better option due to the Caernarvon diversion mucking up the west side. Saturday looks like it’ll be a good day to go though. I wonder if with the rising tide and the ESE / SE winds Friday it’ll push that river water closer into the marsh making the fish even more concentered in the interior.

There are several cameras along the river, two of them are located on the pilot station looking upriver and down river. There’re not live, but run 5min intervals and does show historical data. The only way I know how to access them is through a website I use for work call MRTIS.com. Unfortunately its not free and requires a subscription.

You and I mentioned this the other day!! Figured it was going to be turning on soon. Now to execute a plan.
-
Yup! I feel like if the conditions are just right, places like Delacroix and the Laffite are going to turn on really soon also. With the river predicted to swell to ~12.3ft March 4th (which is early then last year), that river water should push the trout into those areas.

Yessir! Just got it back this past Friday, 2/21. I’m extremely anxious to get her back on the water and start contributing to the community again.
I felt your post deep inside because its been since October 2024 since I last fished! I was about to resort to something similar to what you did in your post, lol.
