Artificial Lure here with your Gulf of Mexico fishing report, straight out of New Orleans for Friday, November 21st, 2025. Let’s dig in.

Tide info says we’re starting the day with a low tide before sunrise, rolling toward a midday high. Sunrise hit at 6:34 am, and expect sunset at 5:01 pm. That crisp autumn air greets anglers this morning—temps are hanging in the mid-60s, northeast winds at about 8 knots, and skies mostly clear. Expect mild weather all day, with no rain and steady breezes making for solid boating conditions.

Water clarity is good throughout Lake Pontchartrain into the Rigolets and deeper marshes, and salinity is holding steady after last week’s front pushed some clean Gulf water into the east side. The combination of cooler temps and stable barometer has the local reds and specks fired up and moving shallow early, then dropping into deeper cuts as the sun climbs.

It’s not just promises either—boats coming back to the dock yesterday saw fat stringers. Reports from Shell Beach and Hopedale say the trout bite is hot, best in the first couple hours after sun up. Typical bags are topping out at 20-plus specks apiece, with plenty in the 16–20" class. Redfish are mixed in, stacked around grass edges and oyster shell flats, with good numbers in the slot range. Several boats logged limits by late morning. Over in Chef Pass, black drum and flounder have been showing up, especially on falling tide.

Biggest surprise this week: some bull reds pushing deeper into Lake Borgne, showing off that late fall pattern early. Sheepshead are holding steady on the bridges and rigs, and a few tripletail came in from farther south, though those tend to taper off as water keeps cooling.

For baits, you can’t go wrong with live shrimp or finger mullet under a popping cork—local shops like Gus’s and Campo's have them fresh. If artificials are your game, folks have been loading up on 2-inch Berkley PowerBait Power Swimmer soft plastics, which look and move just right for trout and panfish at this time of year, especially rigged on a quarter-ounce jig head. For reds and flounder, gold spoons and Johnson Beetle Spins are tearing it up in the dirty water, while Bass Mafia baits—in particular, paddle tails in “morning dawn” color—have been the ticket in clear conditions.

Hotspots today:
- **Shell Beach:** Best for trout and reds—work the outside grass lines early or drop back into the bayous as sun rises.
- **Rigolets:** Good mix of species. Hit the deepwater cuts on the outgoing tide with live bait or spinnerbaits.
- **Lake Borgne:** Chase bull reds over oyster reefs or drifting flats on moving tide.

If you’re heading out, keep an eye on boat traffic—weekends bring the crowd. Check your gear twice, mind the tides for in-shore marsh runs, and stick around the bridges for bonus sheepshead if limits come slow.

That’s the scoop for today in New Orleans. Thanks for tuning in—don’t forget to subscribe for your daily bite update. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
