Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Red River fishing report for March 24, 2025. Let me tell you, the fishing's been hotter than a crawfish boil lately!

First off, we don't have tides to worry about here on the Red, but the river level's holding steady at about 17 feet in Shreveport. That's well below flood stage, so we're sitting pretty for some good fishing.

Weather-wise, we're looking at a beautiful spring day. Highs around 75°F with partly cloudy skies and a light breeze out of the southeast. Perfect conditions to be out on the water! Sunrise was at 7:15 AM, and we'll have daylight until sunset at 7:28 PM.

Now, let's talk fish. The bass have been on fire lately, especially largemouth. Anglers have been pulling in some real beauties in the 3-8 pound range, with a few lucky folks landing some real lunkers over 10 pounds. Striped bass action has been hot too, especially up near Lake Texoma. We're seeing some nice catches in the 15+ pound range.

Crappie fishing's been solid too, with folks catching their limits pretty quick. And don't forget about those catfish - blue cats and channel cats have been biting like crazy. We've had reports of some real bruisers being pulled in, especially near deeper holes and along the main channel edges.

For lures, you can't go wrong with a Rat-L-Trap in shad or chartreuse. Crankbaits and soft plastics are working well too. If you're after bass, try pitching a jig with a craw trailer around submerged timber. For stripers, live shad is still the ticket. Catfish are hitting cut shad and stinkbait.

As for hot spots, the sandbars and rock jetties in the main river have been producing well. The backwater areas around Bossier City are holding some nice bass too. If you're looking for a specific place to try, check out the area around Lock & Dam #5 or the Highway 1 bridge area. The oxbow lakes off the main channel have been producing well for crappie.

Remember, the fish have been stacking up near current breaks and structure, so keep an eye on your fish finder. And don't be afraid to move around if you're not getting bites - the fish are there, you just gotta find 'em!

That's all for now, folks. Get out there and tight lines to ya!

As for hot spots, I'd recommend trying around the Highway 1 bridge area or up near Lock and Dam 5. The oxbow lakes off the main channel have been producing well too, especially for crappie.

Remember, the river can be tricky to navigate, so keep an eye out for submerged structures and always wear your life jacket. That's all for now, folks. Tight lines and good fishing!
