Shore Thing Fishing Report

Shore Thing Fishing Report, 9/20/23

September 20, 2023
Despite cooling water temperatures, local fishing is still hot for warm-water species - and we're seeing the return of cool-water trout as well.

The cool mornings have certainly helped our trout bite these last few days. We are seeing better numbers every day the water temperatures cool down. Don’t get me wrong; by midday it is still hot out there, and the trout bite does seem to fade. But every day it gets a little better and lasts a little longer.

Boston and Lily Rhodes with a perfect sized “puppy” black drum caught near Bayou Caddy.
 
A lot of our attention has been focused on redfish and puppy drum. We have been seeing the slot-sized redfish (18-30 inch) on just about every shoreline we fish, from Pass Christian to Lake Borgne. The lower tides in the morning have made it easier to spot detailing fish. However, some days all you can do is watch them, when they are way back in the shallow ponds and bays. If there is plenty of food for them, typically they won’t go far. We have been going back to the areas we are seeing them with the high tide and doing well.

Austin from Tennessee with a nice tripletail caught near Pass Marianne.
 
We are still seeing tripletail almost every day. The good news is that most of the fish we are seeing are legal, and sometimes very big. Every day the water temperatures drop, it signals these fish to head out into the warmer waters of the Gulf of Mexico. If you’re looking to get into some tripletail action, don’t wait too long.

A very nice flounder for this lucky young man, caught near Bay St. Louis with Capt. Eddie Peterson of Grand Pass Outfitters.
​ 
The big sharks, bull reds, and jack crevalles were all in good numbers this past week. They will also thin out a little with the cooling water temperatures. All in all, fishing should be very good for the next month or so, and we are loving these cool mornings!!!
