re: Lake Pontchartrain Tarpon?

I've talked to people who claim to have caught tarpon in the Rigolets. They anchor up and basically chum all day. I don't know much more than that though.
Over the last 2 weekends I have run through the Rigolets 5 times. 3 of those I have noticed a 30-something Twin Vee with a tower anchored up in deep water (looks like they are in 80-95ft+ out in front of the old light house). There's not much reason to be anchored there to my knowledge, unless there are some Bull Reds running deep in the pass right now. There's a hole in there that 109ft deep.

The old Lighthouse House off of Rigolets Pass is a known Tarpon area in the lake as well. The boat you saw is definitely fishing for them. The hole and the drop-offs to the hole are prime spots to catch tarpon in the lake. There is another hole by the mouth of Chef Pass that was also good in years past.
