My report pales in comparison to yours. It was def a morning bite then. I was hoping you guys were gonna post so I could compare notes. When I got out there at noon the party was over lol I figured that but it was on the way home and you “gotta go to know”
Great report, thank you for posting!

There should be a metric sh*tload of fishing reports for Cypremort Point from yesterday. Everyone and their mom was out. I know when I want to know if folks are catching out of there or not, I check this fishing guide: https://www.facebook.com/people/Acadian-Outdoor-Charters-LLC/100063646147377/
It looks like he’s been catching and I’d bet dollars to donuts that he’s been catching in The Cove or Shark Bayou. I don’t think he’s running out into V-Bay or going to the oyster reefs south of Marsh Island.
After that, I would search for a Facebook group for Cypremort Point and check reports there. I would look but I don’t have Facebook. The above link is just something I found from my notes in years past.
After that, trailer your boat to Lake Decade. It’s just as far as I drive anywhere else. A lot of folks perceive that I live next to where I fish and that things must be easy for me. Hell no. My ride back from the last Venice trip was 3.5 hours.
Dularge was a cool 2.5, Pointe a la Hache is about 1.5, Grand Isle 2.5 and sometimes more depending on NOLA traffic. But nobody here remembers the drive, they just remember the awesome fishing reports and YouTube videos.
Make the drive. You have like, what, three fishing reports from reliable members in here showing successful trips to Dularge?

“along with 25 generations of our ancestors”
Danish is a rare model in Louisiana, but it slaps.
“Hopefully it brings a Jubilee but I havent checked the winds/water levels yet.”
Unless something changes, I doubt it. It will make fishing in the marsh good, though.
“kids had an amazing time and chatted up people that got too close. It was actually the most peaceful deterrent I never considered.”
That is hilarious. ha ha ha ha ha
Great report, thanks for posting!

Where do you live? I assume your boat is trailerable?
-
It is mind boggling to me how many people had the day off to go fishing today. Hopedale Marina was packed out all the way to the back!! I’m sure you could’ve walked across all the boats in The Pen. LOL
Good on you getting on them anyway. That’s a testament to your fishing skill and tenacity. Thank you for posting a fishing report!

Well, the river is coming up, so I’m sure that will affect you. For now, fishing The Cove right outside the launch and Shark Bayou are probably your best bet. I’ll do some research and get back to you with more information.
-
Bada big, bada boom! I’m so glad y’all caught ’em. Isn’t Decade something else? Why can’t Lake Catherine fish like that?! It really is a magical lake. lol
Good call on your GED routes/waypoints. That’s how I rolled for years. No satellite imagery, just a stock map or blank background. GED and .usr files won the day. No expensive mapping card necessary.
Great report. Thanks for posting!

It’s not often I see something done with tackle that I look at and think “holy smokes, that’s smart” or “why didn’t I think of that?” but this is definitely one of those things.
That is s-m-a-r-t. Friggin’ brilliant.
I’m going to rig up a few ASAP and fish with them then report back. I have no reason to believe this rig don’t kick ass, but putting it through a few fishing trips would be good.
Thank you so much for sharing this.

Also, don’t hesitate to post Georgia stuff in here, folks can learn from it (myself included). I’ve got a bud that fishes by Kings Bay and it’s a different world out there. That tide is no joke.
-
I think that’s worth trying. I would def fish over a few reefs out there before giving up on it.
-
“Usually, people just put pictures stating they caught fish, and that is it.”
That’s normal. That’s all you’re going to have to work with. There’s not much reading between the lines to do there. It just means they’re catching and, if they can, then you can, too.
I think the hardest thing for people is not knowing which lure to tie on, or even where to go, it’s just the confidence to go in the first place. Well, one will never get it if he doesn’t just launch the damn boat and go. Lake Decade and The Cove will help you get that confidence.
“You are such a large wealth of knowledge that is great to listen to you.”
Thank you so much.
Also, you really haven’t made a plan. Like, what’s your plan? Where do you want to fish? What are the forecast conditions like? When you do that, you’re critically thinking about your fishing trip.
Look, there’s no video I or anyone can make that will unlock the guaranteed success of your fishing trip. If you don’t apply what’s taught in 101, then you won’t make much headway. I see that you did in fact complete that course, so that’s good. Congrats, you now have more knowledge and expertise than I had when I started out. You probably have a better boat, too.
You know where you’re launching from, so that’s good. But do you have things like points, tidal highways, ponds, etc. picked out? Where are deep holes you’re eyeing? Clear water?
How hard have you looked at Cypremort Point? Let’s see it.

Ha ha ha ha!
Yeah, they must’ve gotten on the wrong boat. Like, why didn’t they go to Minnesota or North Dakota where their other Nordic kin went? I just hate mosquitoes and hate having to spray for them. Like, all I want to do is enjoy my backyard, watch the sun rise, read a book, but no, the damn bugs are on me in December.
My family is from Indiana and when I was young we’d visit there. Man, no mosquitoes, just lightning bugs. In fact, there’s not much there to bite you. It’s not wet and moist all the time. Things last. Summers are bearable. lol
On another note, more people are Danish than they realize. Just by way of immigration in the 400s then the 800s to England.
I also visited Roskilde and Copenhagen in 2009. Great country. It’s like a giant HOA and everyone can follow the rules. Everything is clean, orderly and organized. Basically the polar opposite of Louisiana. LOL We’re glad to have you.

Go to Delacroix, or the heart of Biloxi Marsh.
Problem is, in Delacroix all the dead shrimp guides are whacking the daylights out of the slots and in Biloxi Marsh the bow guides are shooting the daylights out of them. But you can find them. Also consider Reggio.
-
Woe be the man who takes on that challenge. He’s gonna be covering a lot of water.
It’s just insane how many fish are spread out across that lake. Mind boggling.
