 Artificial Lure here with your Monday, October 27th fishing report for New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico. We’re rolling into late October and the cool snap on the breeze’s got the baitfish schooled up tight and the predators fired up.

Let’s start with the tides: Over at the New Canal Station, we saw a low of about 0.8 feet around sun-up and peaking at 0.8 feet again just before noon. Tidal swing is at the low end today, so you’ll want to strategize around moving water—best windows are mid-morning then again late afternoon. Tidal coefficient is down to 41, so don’t expect ripping currents, but any movement is game on for hungry reds and specks. Sunrise hit at 7:10 am and sunset comes in at 6:17 pm, giving us about 11 hours of light to chase that limit.

Weatherwise, expect a classic southern autumn day: forecast calling for mostly sunny, high near the upper 70s, with the marine wind staying light at 6 to 10 knots out the northeast, so local marsh ponds and inshore bays ought to be glassy. Water clarity’s holding solid—perfect for sight-fishing. No big fronts on tap, so stability’s the name of the game.

On to fish activity: According to Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana Daily Fishing Report, action’s been steady with speckled trout schooling up in Lake Pontchartrain and MRGO, plenty over the 15-inch mark, especially near bridges and cuts. A couple crews limited out on specks working live shrimp under popping corks off the south shore reefs. Redfish have been thick in the Biloxi Marsh—slot reds crashing on shrimp-tipped jigheads along broken marsh edges and oyster points. Saw some bull reds caught on cut mullet down at Chef Pass. Out toward the rigs, a few boats reported good catches of sheepshead and black drum, especially on the days with more tidal push.

Top lures right now: You can't go wrong with Matrix Shad swim baits in “Shrimp Creole” or “Glow,” especially with the water so clear. Jigheads in the 1/4 oz to 3/8 oz range have been getting bites. DOA shrimp under corks is another classic—emulate the popping of the real thing. For bigger reds, gold spoons and weedless paddle tails are putting fish in the boat. Live shrimp and finger mullet are still the go-to baits, but anything that wiggles, rattles, or flashes has been getting smashed.

Hot spots? You want to get on the bite, try the Highway 11 Bridge for trout at first light, especially on a moving tide—plenty of bait stacked up and bigger trout underneath. For reds, hit up Bayou Bienvenue and the nearby Roseau cane shorelines—working the outgoing tide along the grass will almost guarantee a hookup. If offshore, the shell pads and wellheads off Breton Sound are holding sheeps and drums, but keep an eye on the weather—I’ve seen squalls kick up quick this time of year.

Louisiana Sportsman reports some folks are catching big flathead catfish in bayous closer to the city. With all the bait moving in, don’t be surprised to hook into a hefty blue cat or freshwater drum while targeting reds in brackish water.

That’s the scoop: shrimp imitations for trout, flashy gold for reds, and keep a few live baits handy if the artificial bite slows. The fish are on the feed, the weather’s prime—you’ve got no excuse but to get out there and put a few in the cooler.
