Good morning, anglers! Today is April 14, 2025, and it’s a perfect day to hit the Gulf waters off Louisiana. Here's your fishing report, complete with tides, weather, fish activity, and hot tips to make the most out of your trip.
The sunrise today is at 6:24 AM, with sunset at 7:18 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to reel in your catch. The high tide hits at 11:58 AM, reaching 1.18 ft, while the low tide will be at 10:47 PM at a meager 0.08 ft. The tidal conditions are ideal for an active bite, so plan around these times for maximum success.
Weather-wise, it’s looking pretty good with warming water temperatures hovering around 72-75°F. Winds are calm this morning but might pick up in the afternoon, so aim for nearshore and marsh areas if conditions get choppy. Keep a weather eye out, but it’s shaping up nicely for both inshore and offshore efforts.
Now let’s talk fish! Speckled trout are hot right now, especially around bridges, jetties, and along grass lines. Jigging techniques with Matrix Shad or Saltwater Assassin lures in colors like chartreuse or peppered pumpkin are producing exceptional results. Redfish activity is also strong in the marshes and near cane pockets. Try using Z-Man ChatterBaits, spinnerbaits, or gold spoons for explosive strikes. Puppy drum and sheepshead are still hanging around reefs and pilings, hitting live shrimp. Offshore anglers are reporting solid catches of snapper and black drum, especially in deeper waters around rigs.
In terms of bait and lures, live shrimp under popping corks is a classic setup for trout and drum. For artificial lures, topwaters like the MirrOlure She Dog are fantastic for early morning strikes. Soft plastics like Berkley Gulp! Jerk Shads and spoons like the ¼-ounce Johnson Silver Minnow are also highly effective for both redfish and trout in murky waters.
For hot spots, try targeting the Biloxi Marsh for inshore action, where the grass lines are yielding nice redfish. Another prime location is around the jetties near Venice, where both trout and sheepshead are biting well. For offshore enthusiasts, aim for rigs and reefs in nearby waters for snapper and drum.
It’s going to be a fantastic day on the water. Tight lines and happy fishing out there in the magical Gulf of Mexico! Stay safe and make sure your gear is ready for action.
