Red River Shreveport Fishing Report: Waxing Gibbous Moon Turns on the Bite

Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your Red River Shreveport fishin' report for Monday, February 2nd, 2026. Winter's grip is tight, but that waxing gibbous moon is turnin' on the bite—major feedin' windows from 12pm to 2pm and minor ones at 7am-8am, 6pm-7pm, per solunar charts for central Louisiana. Sunrise at 6:54am, sunset 5:30pm-ish, givin' ya about 10.5 hours of light. Weather's chilly, highs in the upper 40s, light north winds keepin' water clear after recent fronts. Fish activity's pickin' up strong on largemouth bass and blue catfish, just like yesterday's report showed solid hauls in the oxbows. Anglers pulled strings of 3-5lb largemouths and channel cats up to 20lbs recent days, with some crappie mixin' in shallower. Reds and stripers holdin' in deeper bends too. Best lures? Go with **jigs and finesse worms** for bass huggin' wood—slow drag 'em near drop-offs. Crankbaits on windblown banks for reaction strikes. For cats, cut shad or chicken liver on bottom rigs. Live minnows under bobbers nail crappie. Hot spots: Hit **Stoner Boat Launch** for easy access to bass haunts, and **Bishop Point oxbows** where fish stack up in current breaks—launch early, work the edges. Bundle up, check lines, and get after 'em safe! Thanks for tunin' in, y'all—subscribe for daily updates! This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
