15 years into it myself. Nothing like exploring the vast marsh and feeling that fish tug. Definitely therapy after a week of working inside someone’s mouth.

Thanks for the report! Fished same area from 10:30-1:30. No bites by the rocks. Caught about 8 throw backs and 2 keeper trout , 1 flounder drifting the flats close to bienvenue.

🤣 Can’t wait to see the other edits. Have an awesome trip. I’ll be catching trout without you.

I’ve been wondering if king of the westbank has been at it.
Looks like another successful trip!
Looking to eventually try lafitte again. Thanks for the report

With the winds blowing I stayed on the northeast side of lake lery. Gotta fish the conditions and not the spots right?!

Headed there from the gulf side when we fished south pass. Ran in via Jospeh bayou. Seemed pretty open and a straight shot. Didn’t run into any issues

Fished venice for the first time with my 20’ boat last week. Ran down to south pass and fished the jetties. Didn’t get on any trout. Caught a number of huge lady fish. Ended up using that for red snapper bait in east bay. First well head we hit caught our 3 man limit of red snapper in about 1.5 hrs in 60’ of water. There are tons and tons of well heads to fish. If your plan doesn’t call for red snapper I would consider it being that it’s still open.

Failed medical school so became a dentist. Now I work a few days a week and fish most weekends while my friends that are real “doctors” are working 50+ hrs a week. 🤣

Yep..your typical mouth mechanic. Get paid to drill and fill holes. My next career will be a full time angler slaying trout and reds

Now we need a good sheepshead guide and course!

West end launch is another good option

I was out there at four horse lake working the birds also. We caught 2 keepers with a cork. No dice with a jig or drop shotting, so we bailed. I figured they’d have to be in four horse in the deeper cuts and drains so checked a few other spots on the northeast and southeast of the lake. Not a bite. Ran to a few other spots closer to bakers and point fienne. Weather made it tough so switched to plan redfish and ran into lake lery where we found them stacked up. Caught our 3 man limit in a couple hours. I fished artificial while my buddies fished shrimp. Not much action back at the cleaning tables so I’m sure most people had a tough day.

MemberNovember 3, 2024 at 5:10 pm in reply to: 11-2-24 Lake Pontchartrain Speckled TroutFished diving birds around bayou thomas roughly 2 weeks ago on a falling tide close to evening with the kiddo. Confirmed that they were mostly throw backs . She had fun so we stayed catching . I’ve had the same experience as daniel_gig. Birds have been producing small trout around lake p and borgne areas for myself. Maybe I’m finding the wrong flocks of birds
