Freezing Temps, Hot Bites: Red River Shreveport Fishing Report for January 31st, 2026

Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your Red River Shreveport fishing report for Saturday, January 31st, 2026. Winter's grip is tight after that brutal North American storm—Shreveport hit a bone-chilling low of 17°F this week per the Wikipedia storm summary, with icy roads and power outages lingering till today, says Entergy reports. NWS Shreveport warns of a Cold Weather Advisory till noon CST, so bundle up, check I-20 backups, and watch for black ice. Weather's clearing to mostly sunny post-storm, highs climbing to around 50°F by afternoon from Natchitoches Regional Airport data, east winds at 5 mph. Sunrise at 7:05 AM, sunset 5:45 PM per solunar tables for Shreveport—daylight's short at 10 hours 40 minutes. No tides on the Red, but solunar peaks scream action: major bites 12:05 PM-2:05 PM and overnight 12:27 AM-2:27 AM, minors at 7:11-8:11 AM and 5:50-6:50 PM. New moon phase means fish are feedin' aggressive. Fish activity's hot despite the cold—recent Spreaker podcast "Red River Shreveport Fishing Report Today" from Jan 19 calls it heatin' up with trophy bass and crappie slabs at Stoner Boat Launch and Bishop Point oxbows. Anglers pulled solid hauls of largemouth up to 7 pounds, limits of crappie on minnows, plus catfish in deeper bends. Winter slowdown, but post-front bass are schooled on ledges; crappie tight to brush. Best lures: jighead minnows or small crankbaits in shad patterns for bass and crappie—slow-roll 'em deep. Live bait kings shiners or worms under bobbers. For cats, cut shad in current seams. Hit Stoner Boat Launch for easy access oxbows, or Bishop Point for trophy potential—launch safe, y'all.
