Reported 5 months ago
The water temperatures went from 49.2 to 62 degrees in the span of a week. The fish are very scattered, almost all the shrimp moved out of the marsh and the spawning is in their mind so all this combined makes the "catching " challenging. The good news is with weather patterns and temps settling the bite is going to be very very good starting this coming week

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.
