- Late December 2021.
Irish Bayou (caught 8 total redfish and was given 2 trout by a couple of nice boat fishermen - “Thanks!!”),
Chalmette (couldn’t find the bass or reds, so went all the way out to the Chalmette wall and caught some nice, big trout),
and Chef Menteur Pass (found a few reds and bass in some small marsh canals).
Thanks for watching!
Hope you enjoy the video. - กีฬา
Just came across this channel 👍
Hope you enjoy the videos.
Time to get out there and catch some more soon!
Cheers!
It’s great to see where to launch and a good place to stay. Plus good fishing. Keep up the great job. Thanks
A pleasure! Thanks for the very nice comment. Good luck if you get out there!
***Forgot that I was given the 2 trout in Irish Bayou by a couple nice boat fishermen! Thanks guys!
Always happy to see your videos come up in the feed. Nice succinct reports and accurate footage and maps of the areas and your target strategy. Keep it up!!
Thanks a lot Adam!
Really appreciate the comment. Going to keep searching for some new spots and share any good info. Hoping for a good year ahead.
Thanks again! Cheers.
Awesome!
Noticed no pfd while crossing locks, please wear one at that point at least, you never know and current is super strong.
Also, prior to crossing locks between the wooden guides and rocks can be a great place for some bass, reds and flounder. I’ve caught some really nice flounder in there and when they’re there, they are stacked, the roc’s are great place for the trout as you’ve seen, you really covered some water. Just came across your channel, good stuff.
You’re very correct… I need to put that PFD on in those situations - and more often in general.
Thanks for the comment and info.
Hoping to get back out to that area at some point ahead.
Hopefully more videos soon as well. Trout bite closer to home should be picking up in next few weeks.
Hey Mark, I've been watching some of your older videos. I like this one as it highlights areas somewhat closer to Baton Rouge which is where im at. Thks for including the launch names and map pics!
Thanks!! Some good spots. Glad to have made that video.
About to put out a slight update to that same area.
Lots of good spots and fishing.
Thanks for watching and sharing thoughts.
Mr. Piggy has greeted me too at Eddie's. He kept brushing up against me like a cat!
Ha. That was one cool pig! Next time I will try to get the quality greeting you received!! Thanks for the comment.
Any day fishing is a good day. Haven’t given up on the cove have you. Take care.
Nope!! Still hoping to get back to Cypremort soon. Will post a video if so.
Did go to Burn’s Point and found some redfish but nothing great.
Thanks for watching!
I’m your 1k ,sub congratulations
Thanks a lot for the message and sub!!!
Not a bad day considering I only started the channel in order to share videos every few trips with my parents and girlfriend.
Glad it’s been well received.
Going to check out yours now and subscribed as well.
Cheers!
Thx and have fun on your trips I’m right beside the lake to lol
I would be scare on a kayak seeing those gators
Ha! I gotta be honest, that last one got a LOT bigger as I inched closer. I snuck by them pretty quickly after that!! Luckily they were enjoying the sunshine too much to bother.
Thanks for watching and for the comment.
Cheers!
What kayak are you using?
Old Town Topwater Kayak PDL 10’6”.
Here’s a link to a video and full review.
I highly recommend.
New name - Sportsman PDL 10’6” and 12’.
I also recommend the Old Town Salty - new 12’ and light and fast, still with good stability.
The instant reverse is a game-changer in these Old Town kayaks.
And 1/2 price of Hobies.

@@ThePentUpAngler I ended up picking up a nucanoe pursuit for $225 off Facebook from a guy down in Des Allemands. I'll have it done and ready for this upcoming weekend. Can't wait to get out on the water, my 6 year old son is pumped too.
@@asdfkhieee Man that’s a great report!
I would love to see that. Hope it treats you and your son well. Glad to hear some updates once you’re out there … and maybe run into you on the water. Good luck!!
What was your bait/rig setup for fishing near the wall?
Because I was trolling a good bit, I went with a slightly heavier jig head - 1/4 oz. instead of the usual 1/8 oz. The jigs were mostly DownSouth jigs - dark body with chartreuse tail.
Just trolling slowly - about 2mph and dragging it along in about 4 to 7’ of water. 20lb braid with a 12lb fluorocarbon leader.
Much prefer casting, but the trolling helped me cover more water and find them, then could cast an area after finding them. Great area there along those rocks!
Thanks for watching! Good luck.
@@ThePentUpAngler thanks for replying back !
Nice video and catches but i would not call New Orleans beautiful anymore myself lol
Love the place but indeed it has taken a beating. Need a break from all of the storms. And the pandemic. Hope 2022 cooperates!
