Big Trout and Flounder on the Bridges!

by Captain Steve Himel on 03/29/12

I made two short scouting trips the end of last week and was able to catch some large trout, door mat flounder and drum.  I have been using live croakers that I catch with a small hook and a tiny piece of shrimp.  The big trout and flounder can’t resist them.  I also caught trout on plastic using a 3/8 once jig head on lemon colored matrix lures.  The weather has been favorable with light winds and good tide range.  I have been fishing mid-lake and anchoring using live bait and trolling throwing plastic.  The bite is not fast but patience will put some fish in the boat.  The April full moon is not far away and some of the largest trout of the season are caught during this period.  The conditions are right for some monsters to be caught. On May 1st live shrimp will be available and things should really take off in the lake.  I am now booking trips in Lake Pontchartrain and Delacroix.  I have four, six and eight hour trips available at the most reasonable prices around. Call me to book your charter (504) 458-8737.
