  • Red River Fishing Forecast: Mild Weather, Stable Conditions Favor Bass, Catfish in Shreveport

    Red River Fishing Forecast: Mild Weather, Stable Conditions Favor Bass, Catfish in Shreveport
    Oct 3 2024
    For anglers heading to the Red River in Shreveport today, October 3, 2024, here’s what you need to know to make the most of your fishing trip.

    First off, the weather is looking mild, with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to the mid-70s Fahrenheit. The wind will be light, blowing at about 5 miles per hour, making it an ideal day for fishing. There's a slight chance of scattered showers, but it shouldn't significantly impact your plans.

    Sunrise today is at 7:07 AM, and sunset will be at 7:05 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish. Since the Red River is not a tidal waterway, you don't need to worry about tidal changes.

    The water level on the Red River is currently stable, thanks to recent precipitation. The water temperature is in the mid-70s, and the clarity is moderate, with about 2-3 feet of visibility. These conditions are perfect for a variety of fish species.

    Yesterday saw good activity, particularly for bass and catfish. Anglers reported catching a decent number of bass, with several successful catches using crankbaits, jerk baits, and soft plastics like Ned rigs or Carolina rigs. Catfish were also plentiful, with nightcrawlers, chicken livers, and stink baits proving effective. Panfish were caught using panfish jigs and small spinners.

    For bass, stick with crankbaits, jerk baits, and soft plastics. A jig and spinnerbait are also top choices, especially in black/blue or white/chartreuse colors. For catfish, nightcrawlers, chicken livers, or stink baits are your best bet. If you're targeting panfish, panfish jigs and small spinners will work well.

    Some of the best spots to focus on include Benoit Bayou, Racetrack Bayou, and the points around the Long-Allen Bridge. These areas are known for their irregularities in the water, such as sandbanks and holes, which attract a wide range of fish. The northwest end of the river, similar to Cross Lake, features extensive cypress flats and boat docks, which are hotspots for bass. The Jefferson Shreveport Waterway Project and the areas around Wright Island are also productive spots.

    Local anglers recommend fishing during the early morning and late evening when the sun is not directly overhead, as this is when bass are most active. Keep an eye out for irregularities in the water, as these often attract larger fish.

    With these conditions and tips in mind, you're set for a successful and enjoyable fishing trip on the Red River in Shreveport today. Tight lines

Bass were active during the major bite times, which are typically between 6:01 to 8:01 AM and 6:21 to 8:21 PM. They tend to feed near structural elements like submerged logs, drop-offs, and cypress trees.

    For bass, use jigs, spinnerbaits, crankbaits, jerk baits, and soft plastics like Ned rigs or Carolina rigs. Opt for a black/blue jig or spinnerbaits in white/chartreuse, chartreuse, or orange/chartreuse colors. For catfish, nightcrawlers, chicken livers, or stink baits are highly effective.

  • Red River Fishing Report: Ideal Conditions for Largemouth Bass and Catfish

    Red River Fishing Report: Ideal Conditions for Largemouth Bass and Catfish
    Oct 1 2024
    For anglers heading to the Red River in Shreveport today, October 1, 2024, here’s what you need to know to make the most of your fishing trip.

    ### Water Conditions
    The Red River's water level is currently stable, thanks to recent precipitation. The water temperature is around 75°F, which is ideal for a variety of fish species.

    ### Weather
    Expect a mild day with temperatures likely in the mid-70s to low 80s, making it a comfortable day on the water.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at around 7:15 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 7:00 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been good, especially for largemouth bass. The stable water conditions and moderate temperatures have kept the bass active. Yesterday, anglers reported catching several largemouth bass, with some catches weighing up to 5 pounds. Catfish are also active, particularly in the deeper pools and near structure.

    ### Types of Fish Caught
    Largemouth bass and catfish were the most common catches yesterday. The bass are concentrated in specific areas, such as the pools created by the locks and dams, and the backwaters where the water is clearer and there is less current.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For largemouth bass, flipping and pitching tactics with soft plastics or jigs are highly effective. The bass are often suspended slightly away from the steep shoreline banks, so targeting these areas with lures that can reach them is crucial. For catfish, nightcrawlers and chicken livers are excellent bait choices.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the best spots is Pool 5, close to Shreveport-Bossier, where the water is generally clearer and the bass are more active. Another hot spot is the backwaters around Natchitoches, where the flooded areas create ideal habitats for both bass and catfish. Look for areas with minimal current and good water clarity, as these tend to hold more fish.

    Overall, the Red River is in great shape for fishing right now, with stable water conditions and active fish. Make sure to adapt your tactics to the specific areas you're fishing, and don't hesitate to try different lures and baits to see what works best.
