  • Résumé

  • As of November 21, 2024, the fishing scene in the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana, is quite dynamic despite the challenging weather conditions.

    ### Weather and Tides
    Strong winds and rough seas have been prevalent, keeping many boats in port. However, when there are windows of opportunity, the fishing can be excellent. Today, expect partly cloudy skies with winds out of the southeast at about 15-20 mph. Tides are moderate, with a high tide around 10:30 AM and a low tide around 4:30 PM.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 6:34 AM, and sunset is at 4:53 PM, giving you a good stretch of daylight to get out on the water.

    ### Fish Activity
    Despite the rough conditions, fish activity has been robust. Yesterday, anglers reported catching significant numbers of bull reds, jacks, and trout. The bull reds and jacks are schooling in large numbers, often by the tens or even hundreds, particularly around the Boothville-Venice area[3][4].

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Bull reds, redfish, and trout were the stars of the show yesterday. Several anglers reported filling their limits on red snapper before moving on to catch trout and redfish. Other catches included black drum, flounder, and even some shark and angel fish[3][4].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For targeting bull reds and redfish, using live or artificial shrimp, spoons, and spinnerbaits have been highly effective. For trout, soft plastics and topwater baits are working well. If you're after red snapper, live bait such as shrimp or mullet is recommended[1][3].

    ### Hot Spots
    Two hot spots right now are the marsh areas around Boothville-Venice and the inshore waters of Yscloskey. These areas have been producing consistent catches of redfish, trout, and bull reds. The marshes provide a sheltered environment that can protect you from the rougher seas while still offering excellent fishing opportunities[3][4].

    Stay safe, and make the most of those windows of calm weather to get out and enjoy the fishing in the Gulf of Mexico.
