Fishing Report: Redfish & Trout on Fire, Bass Biting Hard - March 12, 2025

Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your fishing report for March 12, 2025. Let me tell you, the fishing's been hotter than a crawfish boil lately! We're looking at a partly cloudy day with temps in the mid-70s and winds around 10-15 mph out of the southeast. Sunrise was at 7:13 AM and sunset will be at 7:07 PM. As for tides, we've got a low tide at 7:06 PM tonight, measuring about 0.0 feet. Now let's talk fish! The redfish and speckled trout have been on fire in the marsh. Anglers have been limiting out on both species, with some real gators in the mix. I'm talking 5-6 pound trout, cher! The redfish have been thick around oyster reefs and along the grass lines. For lures, you can't go wrong with a gold spoon or a chartreuse/white soft plastic under a popping cork. If you're looking to throw topwater, the MirrOlure She Dog in bone color has been crushing it early morning and late evening. For live bait, shrimp under a cork is always a winner. Don't forget about the largemouth bass either. They've been hitting hard in the backwaters, especially around fallen timber. Throw a watermelon red Senko or a junebug-colored creature bait and hold on tight! As for hot spots, Calcasieu Lake has been producing some monster trout, and the Biloxi Marsh area is always a good bet for reds. If you're looking to stay closer to New Orleans, the MRGO rocks have been holding some nice fish too. Remember, folks, the fish are biting, but they won't jump in the boat for you. Get out there and tight lines! This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.
