Gulf Coast Louisiana Fishing Report: Spring Bite Heats Up
Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your Gulf Coast Louisiana fishing report for March 29, 2025. The tides are looking good today with a low of 0.27 feet at 2:38 AM and a high of 1.36 feet at 8:27 AM. We've got another low of 0.48 feet at 3:00 PM and a high of 1.18 feet at 8:06 PM. Sunrise is at 7:05 AM and sunset at 7:30 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to wet our lines.
Weather-wise, we're in for a beautiful day with partly cloudy skies and temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to low 70s. Winds are light and variable, making for some calm waters out there.
Fish activity has been picking up lately as we're getting into that sweet spring pattern. Redfish have been on fire, especially around the marsh edges and oyster reefs. Folks have been hauling in some nice bulls in the 20-30 inch range. For reds, you can't go wrong with a gold spoon or a soft plastic under a popping cork.
Speckled trout are starting to show up in better numbers too. They're hitting well on live shrimp under a cork, but if you're an artificial guy like me, try a MirrOlure MirrOdine or a Matrix Shad in opening night color. The trout have been hanging around deeper channels and drop-offs.
Black drum are still in the mix, and they're sucking up cracked crab like it's going out of style. If you're looking for a good fight, try hooking into one of these big uglies.
For you bass fishermen, the largemouth bite has been heating up in the backwaters. Chatterbaits and wacky-rigged Senkos have been doing the trick.
As for hotspots, Calcasieu Lake has been producing some nice trout, while Vermilion Bay is giving up good numbers of reds. If you're willing to make the run, Venice is always a solid bet for big bulls.
Remember, a bad day fishing is still better than a good day at work. So get out there, wet a line, and let me know how y'all do. This is Artificial Lure, signing off and wishing you tight lines!
