    Here’s what I got from last year. Anywhere there’s a “stuck” pin is where it got stupid shallow and I got stuck. Now that I’ve looked at these, I think your orange route through “Williams” could be good, just watch out for any shoals from siltation. I think you got this!

    Hey Gene, I’m sorry I didn’t see this sooner. I hope your fishing trip went smoothly. In the future, you gotta give us more notice than the night before.

    “over two day’s probably landed 50-60 specks but we kept maybe 2 out of every 10.”

    Yeah, that sounds about right for the Biloxi Marsh. It’s been consistently that way for awhile now and I keep hoping that since the river has been down (and now the limit has been lowered) that it comes around.

    It seems like one has to cover water there to find the Mother Lode.

    Great report, thanks for posting!

    Yeah, I would call 24 specks a productive grind. Plus you got to cover water. Great report, thanks for posting it!

    Hey Todd, thanks for saying hi! I imagine trout fishing in the Pascagoula River has to be picking up right about now. Some time ago I tagged a 4lb trout in Lake Pontchartrain that was recaptured at Moss Point!

    ” put the lone keeper redfish in the boat on a gold spoon.”

    You had me thinking you got skunked! Whew.

    “One of the friendlier guides was cleaning a decent box of redfish afterwards acknowledged it was a grind”

    Man, I’ve been there. I know what it’s like. It’s reassuring when someone else was on the water that day and they can acknowledge it was tough. Either way, thanks for posting a report anyway!

    “I’m very jealous of folks who got to fish this week. The weather looked ideal. My weeks on have been very poorly timed lately.”

    Same here. I’ve been staying inside to write and look out the window and see the awesome conditions! I’ll continue to leave my boat in the garage and the wind will die down again, just watch. lol

    It sounds like it was just tough fishing. I’m not sure what the water temp drop was like, but know that it’s much more stable in the river. I’d check out that Ostrica launch if I lived closer.

    Every year the fish show up strongest in a different part of Louisiana’s coast, and I think this year that the Barataria basin could be one. Great report, thanks for sharing with us!

    This report here is why we go fishing. The magic is where it’s at. The day it stops being magical is the day I stop fishing.

    Thank you for sharing with us!

    How was the water falling at the Castle when you got there? Ripping out?

    Great report, thank you for posting it!

    It was this time last year I was catching them at Mandeville, but you never know what they could be doing out in the EBM! That’s a great fishing report, thanks for posting it!

    If you mean your #3 pin, locals call that West Bay, or the West Bay Cut. Williams Pass is probably a pass that used to exist but isn’t totally there anymore. That point is ace, but I like to spot lock a little further inside in the middle wherever I see bait balls on the graph.

    “If you look at the imagery from 1/23/24, it looks to have a pretty large boat going through it. So maybe?”

    Yes, you are correct, but where the bayou ends is where the silt falls out of suspension and it gets shallow. So inside the bayou you’re probably good, outside of it is when things get sketchy. See my pics posted below.

    Great, a whole new way for me to waste time on my phone. LOL Thanks for the update.
