What time of day did you go and where do you launch from?I just got my kayak in february and live in Ponchatoula. I'm looking for some good places near home to kayak fish after work and on weekends. I've been to Manchac but no luck...reds don't start running there until late July and August.

January 24, 2013 at 7:52am

I recently sold my old Kayak and went out to replace it looking for a great deal.

My budget was for below $500. I started online looking and found a Field & Stream 12' Eagle Run Kayak at Dick's for $474 that fit my needs.

I was looking for big capacity as I am 279 lbs and plan to carry…

Fishing out of Leeville

May 29, 2020 at 10:50am

I usually fish out of IDJC (island south of PAC) but am looking to scope out a new area and I have the Leeville area in mind. There is a kayak launch down there and it looks to have a lot of broken marsh options. I expect to get into some reds, but also hoping to get into some SPECs so my…

Recovery After Epic Fail

April 04, 2019 at 3:06pm

I lost a nice one and was ready to give up on a very windy, cold, slow and shallow water morning. I kept pushing on and was able to land a nice slot.

Pontchartrain Specs, Redfish, Anything...(looking for advice)

Wannayak

December 03, 2020 at 3:11pm

I'm hoping someone can give me some advice for getting on some fish on the northshore or even somewhere within decent driving distance of Mandeville.

My dad has a hobie kayak that he lets me borrow whenever I want, and I've decided I should get some more use out of it. I've…

bayou des mats

yakcrack

July 25, 2020 at 6:34pm

I was in Lacombe today in Bayou Des Mats. There are a lot of no trespassing signs in there. Does anyone know if this area is fishable? I'd like to be able to paddle thru to get to the bayou that leads to Lake Ponchartrain to the west.

Lure in Sheep head?

LaFisherMenKC12

January 01, 2015 at 12:22am

Went out the 30th..Cloudy all day with absolute no sun and winds around 20mph. I noticed the water was right around 58°. From my history, I knew even with the poor conditions, that this temperature was just about right to get the fish biting. I used past experience, and went to a sheep head hole…

A co-worker of mine has been doing good on the reds around the black river outlet West of the lighthouse. He's using a black split tail grub on a lead head bouncing off the bottom back to the boat. Hope this helps and good luck. Lake P had been peaceful lately with this hot weather.

Kayak (Naked) Roof Rack Recommendation

June 06, 2020 at 8:11pm

I am picking up a 2017 Chevrolet Equinox next week that DOES NOT have any factory installed roof runners, which is a bummer. I researched some â€œnakedâ€ roof rack options and found some on etrailer.com (Rhino-Rack) but lawd they are expensive (~$500). Does anyone have some more budget…

Almost another slam!!!

April 09, 2019 at 6:15pm

A few highlights of a recent team tournament and the goal was the heaviest weight of 5 specks and 1 slot red. The heaviest weight of both team members would decide the winner. My partner got his 5 specks and 1 slot red. I pride myself in being able to find and catch reds but I am weak in the trout…

Getting on a few rats... Missing just as many

Bob Gourgues, Between the Banks

July 04, 2019 at 4:25pm

I was lucky enough to have a steady bite and pull in a few rats. Missed just as many if not more. I started to get frustrated because I was missing so many hook ups so I decided to call it a day. After I finished this edit I noticed I had my hat on backwards during the whole trip. Maybe that's…

Windy Day for Reds

February 14, 2019 at 10:25pm

My 3rd shakedown cruise on the 2019 Hobie Outback. It turned out to be an extremely windy day. I was lucky enough to grab a couple of nice trout and several small reds. Fighting the wind and current back to the launch was tough but the Outback performed well. I am trying to figure this new yak…
