Freshwater Fishing in South Central Louisiana
So the water is still up and muddy in the spillway at Sorrel and Pigeon. Where are good places to launch and fish off 190 between Krotz Springs and Port Barre this time of year?

Freshwater Fishing in South Central Louisiana
I have not been to Bayou Corne since the week before the sinkhole appeared. Since August I have been fishing in Pigeon and Sorrel, but the water is coming up. I am planning on going down Saturday and launching at Sportsman’s Landing. Planning to fish canals beyond Bay Alcide which is heading away from the sinkhole.

I spoke with Dennis Landry (Sportsman’s Landing) and he said the launch is.... Read More

I would like to find out more about fishing this area. I fish Sorrel and Pigeon, but when the water gets high, it is nice to have options outside the levee. I was fishing Corne regularly before the sink hole.

Any information on where to launch and what areas are/are not navigable, would be appreciated.

Bass Fishing in South Central Louisiana
I have caught some bass in the past few months that have made me re-think eating fish.

Most of the bass that I catch are very healthly looking fish, but lately I have picked up more than a few nasty looking fish. I fish out of Sorrell regularly and the past several trips I have caught multilple fish with scars, chucks missing from their sides and puncture wounds. One bass I caught with a.... Read More

Freshwater Fishing in South Central Louisiana
We fished the Shell Cuts out of Bayou Sorrel Saturday morning before the bad weather hit.
Mixed in between catching small bass and the occasional Sacalait and google-eye, we were pounding the Choupique and Gar. They could not get enough of the worms, creature baits and crank baits being thrown out. After catching many many pounds of huge choupique, I have considered eating some. I have even.... Read More

Freshwater Fishing in South Central Louisiana
Fished the Spillway on Saturday morning. Waited out what I thought was the worst of the rain and launched at 8am. Got stormed on!! and worked the bilge pump hard for an hour.

Weather eventually turned nice. Caught a few huge sac on minnows. One nice blue cat on a cricket. Swithched to a tequila sunrise worm and started catching 13' bass.

Question: I fished Corne the week before the slurry.... Read More

Inshore Fishing in Southeast Louisiana
From what I understand the new St Tammany Pier in Slidell opens today (Friday 5/18). I plan to take my 5 yr old over on Monday to see what we can catch.

If you go between now and then, let us know what you think. The article I read says it will have a bait stand, but I plan on taking dead shrimp just in case.

I have never set out jug lines, but thought it might be fun. I will be fishing out of Bayou Corne. I plan to locate them off main canals near moving water.

Any advice...dos/don't are appreciated.

Has anyone ever tried fishing any of the Miss. R. batture in Baton Rouge. Just wondering if any of these along River Rd may hold fish.

Anybody fish the Blind River from the St. James launch? Stopped this morning to have a look at the launch. Really nice, recently updated facility. It looks like a short run will take you to a few offshots. I saw it on a weekday morning. What is the boat traffic like on a Saturday? How is the fishing? Plenty of bank fishing...I did see a gator in the grass near the picnick tables.

Freshwater Fishing in South Central Louisiana
Plan to launch at Bayou Corne on Sunday. Will be taking my wife and two young kids for a day of bream fishing on crickets & worms.

I have fished this area several times recently with moderate success. Primarily in the first 3 fork canal after you hit Grand Bayou and in Texaco Canal. Basically shot around until I found the best water.

Any advice on fishing this area? I have become.... Read More

Where is the best place to launch/ fish on the North end of Verret? I have never fished Verret before and would be coming down through White Castle into Pierre Part.

Had a very nice boat ride this morning, but will not be having fresh fish tonight. What the heck, it was the only day I could go this week.

We were the only ones out there with fishing rods. Everyone else had guns. Cold front did us in. The water is pretty low. 2.3 at Sorrel Lock.

Freshwater Fishing in Morgan City in South Central Louisiana
I have never though much of it, but this week realized how strongh the fish name divide was.

I grew up in Shreveport and have lived in Baton Rouge since 1995. My mother is from Winnsboro.

I recently took my son (5) to Bayou Sorrel, where he recently caught his first sac au lait.

I told my mom that my son caught his first sac au lait. She said, what is a sac au lait? I said it is a.... Read More

Fishing Bayou Sorrel

I am looking to learn more about fishing near Bayou Sorrell…it has been years since I last fished that area. Assuming that I launch at Sorrell landing, I wanted to find out good areas to fish and what to look for with regard to water levels. I understand that water levels are key to fishing the Basin, but I don’t really have an understanding of what to look for in gauging.... Read More
