Mermentau river
 

I finally hit the river yesterday afternoon. Ended up with 18 two were hogs. 1-1/2-5' deep on shiners and blk/cht tube jigs. Attachment 35800

Nice

Awesome....love catching those whites they seem to always be bigger than the blacks.

Nice fish dude

Did you fish the river itself or north down bayou plaqumine and decaines ?

I stayed on the river. I heard reports of fish being caught north as well.

I been thinking about going but haven't heard much. Thanks for the report.

I have been going to well control school in Lafayette and was looking at the water under the interstate. It looked to good to pass up. The clearer water is all north of the bridge. You don't have to go far south to hit chocolate milk.

That's what I heard to. I went a month or so ago down plaqumine and fished every tree top I could find but I only caught some baby blues.

I hate that. Believe it or not most of our fish were caught 1' to 1 1/2' deep. I figured they would be deeper. We started at 5' deep and kept shallowing up.

Nice catch there !

Any bass being caught ?

Hydro

When you say north of the bridge, do you mean the I10 bridge?

Ronnie

Yes Hydro, hearing reports of alot of bass being caught. When I say North I'm referring to the Hwy 90 bridge in Mermentau.

I went again yesterday and caught about a dozen from 4:30-6:30 pm. It started slow and about the time I found them the rain got me lol. They were 4' deep on jigs.

Sweet sacs Bro

Nice box shot and thanks for the report

Thanks !!!

Thanks. Nice mess of fish!!

Nice catch. Always like fishing that river, some real nice areas everywhere, just have to find what they will hit.

Slabs!! Nice job.
