The King of Lafitte has returned to re-claim his throne.
Hell of a grind in spite of the tough conditions. I’ll take that box all day long. Great report!

Ranger also made a 20’ bass boat that is comparable to this new Tracker, but I’ll be honest and say I like the new Tracker better.
I like how rounded everything is and it almost looks like a glass boat in some ways.
That Xpress X21 is sick. But man, if I were in the market for a new Bass Boat, it would be hard to convince me not to get that Tracker, throw my ghost and graphs on there, and let her rip.

Attached is a recent satellite image of Venice. The River has muddy water everywhere. You will want to get away from that. I would fish as close to the Gulf of America as I could, weather permitting.
It’s going to be tough fishing. If you’re prepared for that mindset wise you can still have a great trip.
Also, try getting in the shallow ponds between Grand and Tiger Pass. The water may be cleaner in there because of less river water influence. Though with the river being what it’s at now, I would bet they’re dirtier than when I was there last in February. I didn’t have any success there, but the water was too low for me to get back up in there like I wanted. You will have more water and maybe can catch some nice slot reds in there.
You can find a route to Yellow Cotton Bay in this post: https://www.lafbelite.com/forums/discussion/2-14-2-16-venice-planning/
There are also some marked spots in YCB and East Bay in that post. Try them out.
Good luck. Enjoy the world’s greatest fishery. Let us know how you do.

Great minds think alike haha.
I’m glad I could help. Good luck on Tuesday!

Wow, glad to hear you’re alright. That is wild!
Otherwise, awesome report. I hope you have your coworker a hard time after putting everyone on those fish. Great report!

The phenomena of the boats camping out at the Trestles is the 8th Wonder of the World.
The trestles has been getting hammered since October. It will always be a great fishing spot because of what is there, but my goodness the pressure has just been non stop the last 5 months.
I don’t fish it all that often because of that, but on days where you can get it to yourself for a couple of hours, it can be pretty fun.
I look at fishing the bridges of Lake P a lot like the way I look at going to Wal Mart. I don’t really want to go, but at least if I do go, the people watching can be quite entertaining.

Great report. Love seeing a report from Cocodrie! Great fishery. I need to get back over there one of these days. Thanks for posting!

They’ve been leaving the drawbridge at the trestles up for the most part. Hwy 11 bridge opens every so often depending on traffic. You shouldn’t have a problem with them opening it for you when you’re there I wouldn’t imagine.

I was a costa guy forever but recently switched to Bajio. Bajio has been great for me. The most important thing to me is that they’re comfortable. Some sunglasses make my ears and nose sore after wearing them all day because they’re either heavy or fit snug. I haven’t experienced that with Bajio and have been happy with them.

“I heard that one of the Campos sparta-kicked him in the water years ago.”

Haha nooooooooo!! Hopefully there’s an easy way to do it.
I would do the same thing though. Gotta get that right.

Yeah, the spoil ain’t happening. I’m going tomorrow, but certainly won’t be taking that route.

I have green lenses. I’ve always heard green for inshore water, blue for offshore water, and so on and so forth. I don’t know how true that is. I have always had blue lenses and have been able to see into the water just fine. The green lenses are great, but I don’t really notice a difference in them.

I stand corrected. Good to know thank you man.
