Finally got out passed the bridges to check on some of the migratory fish, and plenty little sharks and plenty the big drum seen good bit of mackerel and bait.. Water was nice clear but to cold for cobia and the bigger sharks yet!!! Inshore still pretty good struggled a couple days.. Some nice trout last run on sheepshead, at least in bay plenty out at the island some 15 miles out!!! Live shrimps have been pretty steady at bait shops and bait of choice!! 🎣🎣😊

the sheepshead will be heading out the bays all I've cleaned lately are full of eggs!! They go offshore to spawn.. Lots of slot and over 30 inches reds been in bay.. The big drum are starting to do their spawn and have been plentiful!! Few flounder and specks,too!!! The water temps well over the 70 degree mark, seen a small triple tail sharks and cobia should be lurking around the barrier island, Gone slip out there soon and give it a try!!! The white trout ground mullet are fun and abundant for the young spring breakers?!! Something for everyone...

January Inshore Fishing Report — Delacroix, Louisiana

January is a great month to be on the water in Delacroix as winter patterns settle in across the marsh. Cooler temperatures often bring more stable fishing, and this time of year consistently offers solid inshore action for anglers targeting redfish, speckled trout, and other marsh species.

Overall January Conditions

With winter in full swing, fish tend to gather in areas that offer steady water movement and comfortable temperatures. This makes January a productive month for exploring deeper bayous, protected marsh ponds, and areas with good tidal flow. Clearer winter water can also...

January Inshore Fishing Report — Delacroix, Louisiana

January is a great month to be on the water in Delacroix as winter patterns settle in across the marsh. Cooler temperatures often bring more stable fishing, and this time of year consistently offers solid inshore action for anglers targeting redfish, speckled trout, and other marsh species.

Overall January Conditions

With winter in full swing, fish tend to gather in areas that offer steady water movement and comfortable temperatures. This makes January a productive month for exploring deeper bayous, protected marsh ponds, and areas with good tidal flow. Clearer winter water can also
lead to increased visibility, giving anglers more opportunities to locate feeding fish.

Redfish Action

Redfish remain a reliable target throughout January. They can be found cruising shorelines, holding near structure, or settling into calmer pockets of the marsh. This is a great month for steady redfish action, whether you're looking for slot fish or hoping to tangle with larger fish that roam the system this time of year.

Speckled Trout

Speckled trout fishing can be productive during winter as they group together in areas with consistent conditions. Whether fishing deeper water or working areas with active tide movement, trout continue to be a popular target for inshore anglers during January.

Other Inshore Species

Black drum, sheepshead, and other winter-friendly species are also common across the marsh this month. These fish offer great action and are perfect for anglers looking to keep rods bending.

    Top-tier charter, masterclass on deck! SYL Charters does not disappoint! Captain C-Bo put us right on the fish, and Justin the deckhand put on a clinic. The guy was flawlessly running 6 poles at a time without breaking a sweat. Amazing boat, fantastic crew, and an unforgettable day on the water. Highly recommend the to anyone looking for a premier fishing experience in Biloxi, MS. 5 stars all day!
