Lakefront NOLA fishing

What kind of fish are we gonna catch? Keepers? Anyone have experience fishing from shore?
Posted on 9/6/20 at 10:45 pm to TexasTiger1185
Use braided line and you’ll catch some lunkers.

Just go to the point and throw some crab nets out. You’ll definitely catch something.

Back when I was a little choppadoctor we used to catch drum,sheepshead,croaker and those freaky looking oyster fish off the seawall steps

You can catch drum, reds and trout from the boat launch in Metairie

I have nothing useful to say, but I read this as "Lakefront NOLA fisting" and did quite a double take.

Friend,
We are entering the peak season for shoreline fishing from the South Shore. Redfish, speckled trout, white trout, Black drum, flounder and the occasional striped bass are regularly caught from the bank. The Industrial Canal used to be fantastic for speckled trout. When the rock damn was built closing MRGO, that fishery cooled. It is still okay, but no where near what it was.
If the pogie, also called menhaden, are running, there is a good chance you could hook into a jack crevalle, small shark, alligator gar, and if you are way out east, the ever small chance at a tarpon.
Yours,
TulaneLSU

Friend,
I take it you do not appreciate my knowledge of the outdoors. Do not assume that my love of Christmas and cooking precludes me from being quite the outdoorsman. It is in my blood. My great, great grandfather was a member of the Tally Ho Club. Grandfather, like his father and grandfather, was a great outdoorsman. He took me out on the Lake many, many times. And I have spent many a night at Port Eads and Grand Isle on Uncle's Viking. I feel it necessary to apologize that I have had these experiences, as they seem to anger you.
Yours,
TulaneLSU

fishing from shore?

He is a random 40 year old who started with this schtick in April. He even uses the schtick to offer condolences when members are expressing grief over the death of a loved one. It’s sickening really.

As someone who grew up on the lake I’d be happy with a line of trout.

You’re being a little dramatic.

Friend,
The Spring after Katrina, before the Levee Board closed Lakefront and started issuing citations to people fishing at the Frank Davis Seabrook pier, that area was on fire. A limit of nice 16-20 inch trout could be had with little more than a sparkle beetle in an hour or two. Sometime around 2008, they closed that area to the public, and by the time it was open again to shore fisherman, MRGO was closed. With its closure, the wetlands may have been given a short reprieve, but the Industrial Canal fishery took a hit. I haven't fished Seabrook in more than a decade.
Best Lake trout fishing day ever was actually in Kenner while visiting my cousins who at that time lived in Chateau. We rode bikes to the Williams boat launch. At the opening to the Lake, we hit a great school of trout. Each of us caught a limit in less than a half hour. Every single cast of our dual speck rigs produced two trout. If one trout spit the hook, another took its place seconds later. The pogie were thick that year.

His posts read like a creepy, monotone android, devoid of emotion. I guess that would explain the lack of compassion towards loss of persons’ threads.
