I’m surprised no one else here chimed in. Louisiana folks love food. lol
I’m not one for cooking. I’m happy eating boiled eggs and plain sandwiches. LOL
But I do appreciate posts like these. Good stuff for the forum. Thank you.

Geremy, you have been on a kill streak down there in Venice. I’m so stoked to see this. Even with the bad weather you pulled it off.
Excellent work, and thanks for letting us know what’s up down there.

Good to hear the lake producing. It absolutely should be. But I really like that the bite is a wee more technical.
That bridge is a dojo.
Great report, thanks for posting!

I personally hate music while fishing. I can’t hear what’s going off if there’s music.

“the water was heading in which had me puzzled”
Sounds like something significant happened in the day(s) before your trip.
“Dress warmer for 50F than what I did”
Absolutely. It’s not like you’re humping a ruck. You don’t have to carry everything you pack. That’s what the boat is for. It’s better to have and not need than need and not have. Besides, you have a dry bag of spare clothes (to include a jacket), yes?
I’m not home and am limited on time, otherwise I would look up the conditions myself, but it sounds like a front came through. The south side of the Dam is an example of a place that would be protected from that wind and cold, and offers deep water for fish. Other deep holes I would target as well.
Either way, you didn’t get skunked.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Man, I hope I’m still doing the thang when I am 80! Good on your dad!
It sounds like an excruciating grind was possible on that flat. I’d def fish it with an 1/8oz jighead.
Thanks for posting!

This was a mere distraction whilst greater things arrive in their time. And that thing is VENICE!
I appreciate your time and effort, and especially for taking time to post a report.
Now, stop f&%king around and go do the work of the gods!!

I really think that if you are going to fish that area, you should get into Muscle Bay and work your way north from there. I’d definitely be hitting Bayou Biloxi this time of year.
Thank you for reporting!

Excellent find, thank you for sharing! It’d be great to get everyone off their 7′ MH meat sticks lol

“I kept that pattern going for about four hours until I finally put my 15th fish in the box.”
Yowzers, that’s the living, breathing definition of a grind that pays off. That’s legit.
While it pains me to hear that trout aren’t jumping in the boat there, it is nevertheless a great dojo for learning how to catch them the articulate way. The real dynamite is applying what you learn there elsewhere.
That is the key to open new doors, my favorite door being “smoking the bricks off the trout while corkers can only stand and watch”.
Great report, thanks for posting!

Your yellow route is certain doom.
The search function is your friend.
Remember, the best stuff for your needs now were posted in the years before.

“I’ve got a multi day Venice extravaganza lined up next weekend.”
Hell yeah!
“What do y’all think?”
Fack.
I’ve got a route through there I ran last year, but all my GPS tracks are on the desktop at home, and I won’t have access to it for some time.
But I *mostly* remember it. I think you want to look at this Copernicus imagery and you may see that pencil-neck bayou you want to take on your pink route is silted in at the mouth on the west side.
So adjust your pink route to come in at the bayou further to the south, then come up. Plus, at the top of the West Bay Cut there is a nasty sandbar there. Almost got me last year and def got someone last year, saw SeaTow pulling them off.
Your yellow route looks good. Just be careful out there.

It is 1,000% there on GED, bud. I wouldn’t start my fishing trip at obvious spots without having a slew of other non-obvious spots. The mindset here is to find fishing spots based upon the conditions.
Use the process. Make a planning post. Put in TOW. Keep fishing reports. Rinse and repeat and you’ll be where these guys are. I promise.
Good luck!
-
That could be doable. Just take it easy. It’ll be an adventure.

What John said.
I always wanted to run it, never got the chance to. I’d cross reference what’s on GED with the latest Copernicus imagery, maybe it can tell something like obvious siltation or a boat running down it.
