    Gulf Coast Fishing Report: Trout, Reds, and Offshore Bounty [June 22, 2025]
    2025/06/22
    Artificial Lure here with your June 22, 2025, fishing report for the Gulf of Mexico and New Orleans area.

    Sunrise this morning was at 6:01 AM and we’re looking at sunset at 8:04 PM. The weather’s been cooperating—warm temps, light winds, and just a hint of humidity typical for late June. Conditions are stable, with clear mornings, making for excellent sight-casting in the marshes around Lake Borgne, Shell Beach, and Hopedale. Tidal movement today is moderate, bringing a good morning push and another promising window before dusk. Fish activity ramps up with these tides, so early birds and late casters are getting the best bites.

    Inshore, anglers are limiting out on speckled trout and seeing steady redfish around grass lines and oyster beds. Limits on specks are coming easy, especially near Shell Beach and Hopedale, with catches topping out before mid-morning. Flounder are making a solid showing, stacking up near shoreline structure and cuts. Black drum are also joining the inshore lineup, rounding out the catches.

    Productive lures right now are June bug and purple soft plastics rigged on swinging jig heads, fished under popping corks early in the day. Live shrimp is the top bait for both trout and reds, but gold spoons have been deadly for sight-casting redfish along the grass edges. If you want to try topwater, tie one on for the first hour after sunrise near bait schools—the blow-ups have been aggressive.

    Offshore action is heating up with the serious summer bite kicking into gear. Out by the shrimp boats and rigs, bull reds, Spanish mackerel, cobia, and red snapper are all on the hunt. The Loop Current is pushing blue water close to the Mississippi Delta, and folks running out are finding chunky grouper and snapper around nearshore reefs. For these, bring cut mullet or squid, or go bold with brightly colored jigs. Paradise Outfitters reports a 275-pound Warsaw grouper was boated just last week.

    For bass enthusiasts, Lake Cataouatche and city bayous are producing solid largemouth action early and late in the day. Plastic worms, crankbaits, or jigs along current breaks are working well. Try small minnows or crawfish if you’d rather go the live bait route.

    For today’s hot spots: Shell Beach and Hopedale are lights out for specks and reds. The deeper channels near Lake Pontchartrain’s causeway pilings are still giving up big sheepshead and drum. Offshore, target the rigs just south of Venice for snapper and cobia, and run out to Lake Borgne rigs for mackerel and the odd tarpon.

  • Gulfshore Gamefish: Trout, Reds, and Offshore Blitz in New Orleans' June Fishing Hotspots

    Gulfshore Gamefish: Trout, Reds, and Offshore Blitz in New Orleans' June Fishing Hotspots
    2025/06/21
    Artificial Lure here with your June 21st, 2025, fishing report for New Orleans and the mighty Gulf of Mexico. We’re deep into summer, and the bite is as hot as a midday po’boy, so let’s get you dialed in for a banner day on the water.

    Sunrise came in at 6:01 AM this morning, with sunset set for a generous 8:04 PM. That means you’ve got plenty of daylight to work those marshes and rigs, and with this weekend’s light southeast breezes and clear skies, conditions couldn’t be better.

    Inshore, it’s prime time for speckled trout, redfish, and flounder. Shell Beach and Hopedale are popping off right now—local guides are reporting quick limits of trout by mid-morning. Early hours are best, especially around the deeper cuts and marsh edges. The fish are aggressive at daybreak, so get on the water early if you want a full box. As for redfish, look for ‘em pushing up into the calmer marsh waters on higher tides. Grass lines and oyster beds near the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park are reliable—try sight casting with gold spoons or soft plastics for best results. Gold spoons are a classic, but don’t overlook topwater lures in the first light, especially if you spot bait schools getting busted up.

    Flounder are hanging tight by shoreline structure and main-lane cuts. If you’re targeting them, small live minnows or finger mullet are a safe bet, but June bug and purple soft plastics fished on a swinging jig head are catching plenty, too.

    For you freshwater folks, largemouth bass have been steady in the city’s bayous and backwaters. Plastic worms, crankbaits, and jigs along current breaks or downed structure keep producing. Live bait enthusiasts should stick to small minnows or lively crawfish.

    Offshore, the action is steadily ramping up as well. The Loop Current is pushing clean, warmer water right into the Delta, and that’s got bull reds, Spanish mackerel, and cobia on the hunt around shrimp boats and rigs. Red snapper season is firing—cut bait like mullet or squid is working on the reefs and rigs, but if you want to cover water, break out some big, flashy jigs and you’ll get a shot at grouper and cobia, too.

    A couple of hot spots for you: Shell Beach and Hopedale for that early-morning trout and redfish rush; the passes around Lake Borgne are choice for mixed bags; and the nearshore rigs just east of the Mississippi Delta are drawing in snapper, grouper, and summer cobia.

    Tides are moderate today, so expect the best bite on the moving water at sunrise and in the late afternoon. Water temps are warm, winds are light—it’s just about perfect.

    That’s all for today. Thanks for tuning in to your local line-wetting update, and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss out on the latest bite. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

  • Gulf of Mexico Fishing Report: Summer Bite Heats Up in New Orleans

    Gulf of Mexico Fishing Report: Summer Bite Heats Up in New Orleans
    2025/06/21
    Artificial Lure here with your Gulf of Mexico, New Orleans fishing report for Saturday, June 21st, 2025.

    Weather’s true to summer down on the coast—expect hot, humid air with a touch of Gulf breeze. Prepare for a partly cloudy day and midday highs topping out in the upper 80s. Winds are out the southeast around 10 knots, which lines up just right for a solid drift over the flats and open water spots. Sunrise this morning was at 5:58 a.m., and sunset will roll in at 8:05 p.m., giving you a good, long window to wet a line. Tides are running strong today, with a morning incoming tide peaking around 9:40 a.m. and a solid outgoing this afternoon, which should keep fish on the move and feeding.

    Fish activity has been excellent. According to Intercoastal Safaris and Captain Experiences, bull redfish, big Spanish mackerel, and cobia are on the hunt around the shrimp boats and nearshore rigs, with red snapper also showing up as the summer offshore season heats up. Inshore, it’s been a classic June bite. Speckled trout are going strong—Shell Beach and Hopedale are especially productive, with limits coming in before the sun starts to sizzle. Redfish are stacked up in the marsh drains and oyster beds, with both slot and bull reds being caught on moving tides. The sheepshead bite is on fire along the bridge pilings and rock jetties, and some flounder are mixed in for good measure.

    For best results, local guides and recent reports recommend soft plastic lures in natural colors, especially fluke-style baits rigged weightless or on light jigheads for working those grass pockets and under docks. Paddle-tail swimbaits in white, chartreuse, or silver are also killer for trout and redfish. Topwater plugs like the Zara Spook or Skitter Walk get explosive action at first light, especially around bait schools. If you’re fishing live, shrimp under a popping cork or small live minnows have been hard to beat for trout and reds. Offshore, fresh cut bait and big jigs are producing on snapper and cobia.

    Hot spots you don’t want to miss today:
    - Shell Beach and Hopedale for limits of speckled trout and redfish, especially just after high tide as water pours off the marsh
    - The Lake Borgne rigs and MRGO for mixed bags and a shot at big sheepshead
    - Breton Sound rigs and shrimp boats for bull reds, Spanish mackerel, and the occasional cobia
    - The bridges and rocky points along Lake Pontchartrain for steady sheepshead and flounder action

    According to Louisiana Sportsman and recent local reports, the spring and early summer conditions are above average this year, with clean blue water pushing closer inshore and bait thick throughout the marsh and nearshore structure. Now’s the time to load the ice chest!
