Fishin' Report for the Big Easy: Redfish, Specks, and Offshore AJ Action (140 characters)
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your Sunday fishin' report for March 23, 2025. It's a beautiful mornin' in the Big Easy, with sunrise at 6:56 AM and sunset later at 7:14 PM. Weather's lookin' mighty fine today, perfect for wettin' a line.
Now, let's talk tides. We've got a high tide comin' in at 3:00 AM, reachin' about 0.8 feet, and a low tide at 1:55 PM, droppin' to 0.5 feet. That means we've got some good movement in the water, which should get them fish bitin'.
Fish activity's been pretty hot lately, especially with the redfish and speckled trout. Folks have been pullin' in some nice catches around the Chef Menteur Pass and Lake Borgne. I've heard tell of a few lucky anglers landin' some solid 5-pounders.
For you lure enthusiasts out there, I'd recommend tossin' some paddletails or gold spoons. The Z-Man DarterZ and MirrOlure Lil' John have been workin' wonders on them specks. For the reds, you can't go wrong with a Johnson Silver Minnow spoon in gold or copper.
If you're more of a live bait kinda angler, shrimp is always a safe bet. Them fish can't resist a nice, juicy shrimp dancin' on the end of your line. Cut bait's been producin' too, especially for the bigger reds.
Now, for them hot spots. I'd suggest y'all try your luck around the Rigolets or head out to the Chandeleur Islands if you're feelin' adventurous. The oil rigs off Venice have been firin' up too, if you're lookin' to go a bit further out.
Don't forget, amberjack season's open, so if you're headin' offshore, you might wanna drop a line about 24-25 miles out. Them AJs have been bitin' on live bait and jigs in about 100 feet of water.
Remember to keep an eye on them tides and match your bait to what them fish are feedin' on. Tight lines, y'all, and let's hope them fish are hungry!
