Which is the first lock? The one on the Intracoastal waterway or the one by Bayou bienvenue.

What are they being caught on and how deep? Thanks.

Hell, with this colder weather, launch at Gulf Marina and just idle out in that small bay right there. Fish the bottom with plastics slow. Trout& redfish stack up there when it gets cold.

Also, hotwater canal. Finger mullets are the ticket. One can catch them by the first lock inside to were the bayou used to run, but was dammed with a castnet. Fishing that area, use just a hook with the live mullet and cast into the rocks. Work it slow to keep the mullet from snagging you up in the rocks.

Across from Bold brothers in the MRGO, Sliding cork on the drop off in about 12'-15' of water, there are old tree stumps. Big trout hold tight to them. Live mullets are the ticket there for the big girls.

The one by Bayou Bienvenue I think. As soon as you launch, it's the first one on your left.

You can catch them inside or outside of the first lock. I think we anchored in about 8-10 feet of water. We were using dead shrimp(yes I'm asian) and they were biting off plastics as well.

Give me a minute I'll text my buddy. He's out there right now.

Edit - He's not responding but he if calls me back I tell you how they're doing today.
