  • Résumé

  • As of November 15, 2024, the fishing scene in the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana, is buzzing with activity. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Tides
    The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 75 degrees Fahrenheit and a gentle breeze out of the southeast. Tides are moderate, with the high tide at around 10:30 AM and the low tide at 4:30 PM. These conditions are ideal for both inshore and offshore fishing.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 6:34 AM, and sunset will be at 4:53 PM, giving you ample daylight to explore the waters.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a flurry of activity, particularly with bull reds and jacks schooling in large numbers. Anglers reported catching significant amounts of redfish, speckled trout, and black drum. The marsh areas around Hopedale and Venice were particularly productive.

    ### Types of Fish Caught
    Redfish, both bull and slot-sized, were abundant. Speckled trout were also plentiful, especially in the morning hours. Black drum and sheepshead were caught in good numbers, especially around the rocks and reefs.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For redfish, using live shrimp under a popping cork or topwaters has been highly effective. Speckled trout are biting well on imitation shrimp lures with 12-inch leaders and jig heads with Wac Attack and Deadly Dudley tails in lighter colors. For black drum and sheepshead, live shrimp on the bottom or near structure is the way to go.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Hopedale Marsh**: Known for its rich redfish and trout populations, this area is a must-visit.
    - **Venice**: The waters around Venice are teeming with bull reds, black drum, and sheepshead. The reefs and rocks here are particularly productive.

    Overall, it's a great time to be on the water in Louisiana, with plenty of fish to be caught and favorable weather conditions. Make sure to check the local fishing regulations and enjoy your time on the Gulf.
