Meant to attach this.
I don’t have any pictures as I was filming, but trust me, you will see the highly anomalous trout bite that is Lake Decade. I feel like this morning was a fever dream or something and didn’t actually happen. LOL

Using this past report to plan for tomorrow. Total lifesaver for tomorrow. Again, thank you for posting it!
-
I’ll be headed down there tomorrow to build off of what you reported here. Thank you.

Ugh, man, sorry to hear this. Let’s see what we can look at here: Did you fish Pointe Fienne and Bay Jack? How? Did you drift at all and throw a popping cork?
-
I’ll say it: I have no idea what a flush bag is, though I can guess. Never used one, always used the muffs. Let us know what you come up with!

“I will make a post later on this but he had some very interesting things to say.”
I am dying to know what that man thinks.
What a great report. You are doing legendary Louisiana fishing (with a legend). Good stuff. Thank you for posting this, it makes me very hopeful for our fishery. The rest of us in boats need to step it up! lol

Man, I’ve fished those spots before and never really whacked ’em there. But that’s the thing, one really has to fish them over a period of time to give them their due. If I get time today I’ll fish them.
We got back late last night from Christmas festivities and if we get out at all today then it will be a late start. I’ll keep y’all posted.

Excellent report of mean speckled trout! lol Hopefully I’ll be able to get down there this week.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Yeah, you can get down that canal. You’ll just have to ensure the draw bridge comes up. IIRC, hail them on Ch 13. I don’t remember the number off the top of my head, if you were to call. Otherwise, that canal is fine. I suggest checking GED over relying on Navionics alone.

Delacroix is way more hazardous with fog. Look at Dularge on a map. You launch into a canal and go straight for three miles. That’s it. It is the easiest navigation you will ever do and it is wide, plenty of room for boat traffic. You cannot possibly screw it up. Just follow all the Cajuns. They will lead you to the promised land.

Thanks for providing that. So where we fished was a little northwest of you, but essentially the same body of water. We were just drifting and popping corks and would spot lock when we caught fish and fan cast around.
Of course, that was before the nasty cold front, so I am not sure what to tell you. I heard that some guides whacked the trout in Delacroix today in “Grand Lagoon” but there is no Grand Lagoon. There is one in Slidell, or maybe the person meant Grand Lake, but I do not recall much, if any, trout coming from there.
In the last few days I got less-than-stellar reports coming out of Delacroix.
If it gives you any comfort, I got my ass kicked today, too. lol It happens. But I think you experienced some kind of fluke in Delacroix. I’m going to get more information then report back here if/when I get it.
Either way, great report, thanks for posting it!

Yeah, I got in the water for about 11:15am. I posted a report. There’s some promise out there, but I’ll be going to Dularge and Venice for the next couple days.

Fish bends in bayous like you do for trout. Somehow they end up there. After that, I find them up against the rocks in the Mississippi River, jigging with a half ounce jighead.

Well, you’re dealing with a yokel on Facebook, so take that intel with a grain of salt. I haven’t heard anything from Chas that most of the trout they’re catching are over 20″. Absolutely not. But I’d like to see it return to where there are more of that class of fish. That would be great.
-
I think that’s a safe assumption, but the water temp was still 57-59. It wasn’t “that cold”. I got out there for lunch time because I had to drop off my kids at school. Otherwise I would have fished the morning. They definitely bit better when the sun got low in the sky in the afternoon.
