Good report. Too bad you didn’t find em.
As I was reading the part about you running down MRGO headed to the rocks, I immediately thought to myself “oh boy, wait til he gets to where it opens up at athanasio…” and then I read the next sentence. I chuckled to myself. Been there before.
I think the windy route to the back side of the dam from bakers canal is a fun ride. I always enjoy it – just be careful of the blind turns.

here’s the GED version (wasn’t at a desktop last night when i posted)

Nice job! Did you find the bite was better with live shrimp or the marker54’s?

Marsh romance and skeeter hawk for me. Though, I too am one of those fully clothed fellas even when it’s 90 deg out.

That was me being lazy. I can do a screenshot next time. I took a pic with my phone, and texted my buddy. I just uploaded the pic via my phone on this post. I’ll do better next time 😉
Yea, I’ve seen several muddy/circular tracks with visible oyster boats. I then came across these deep scars, and I’ve caught fish there numerous times. I spend a lot of time in that bay, and I’ve been “researching” on GED recently to plot a few more potential spots to fish while I’m out there.

here’s a clear image of it.

Why no longer desire to run out there? Because you didn’t limit out, or another reason?
Good report. Thanks for sharing.

I appreciate your input, Devin! I’ll be sure to share a report.

I’m surfing the forums at night via mobile. I am using GED on a computer during the day. I’m generally not surfing the forums during the day.

Same here, but I’m going anyway.

I’ve heard that same thing from others over the past week.

I’ll be there Saturday to find out.

The ride always seems longer going out than it does coming in.

Rain started at 9:45. I didn’t leave the dock til nearly 10:45. Stopped and got a few minnows at campos. Was overcast all day. I ran straight to the south side of the damn. Fished from the damn all along the banks for several hundred yards. Nothing.
Decided not to go to Athanasio due to the wind blowing 20mph. Instead, I headed up Malo and made my way to eastern shore of Borgne. Fished Sue, padre, shoreline and went all of the way up to grande. I caught 2 trout, one flounder, one rat red, and a big catfish (30”).
Stopped by the fort on way in, but the wind caused me to leave after 4 casts.
Results were not what I had hoped. I passed two other boats in Malo. They both reported dismal results and both had been out earlier than me. I saw no other boats out there whatsoever. The water on the south side of the damn was super clear. The water at the eastern shore was not nearly as bad as I was anticipating. My buddy went out Sunday morning, fished the fort between 7:00-8:00am and caught 5 trout on a sinking twitch bait. He said the wind picked up at 8am and the bite went away.

I agree. There’s been times that I’ve stopped along the way to the damn, and never left inside of that bakers canal.
