It’s not a bait issue right now.....but maybe in the winter it is a big bait issue..... It could be bait or food issue before spring or after summer but right now lake is full of bait

My fight is too many trout are driving out the bigger trout.... Big Trout don’t eat shrimp or small fish...they eat big bait

15 Trout limit has solved ZERO....ZERO...ZERO....

I’m 100% Right on this issue ...... and just look at the STAR and CCA SHOOT out weight ins from 2000-2006....2007-2012
Look at every trout event in this time frame...

Jeff Poe did a good story on LSM about Pressure on the lake....As he now believes there is way less Pressure

Poe feels like the perception of increased fishing pressure at Calcasieu Lake has more to do with the decrease of common courtesy than it does with the number of boats on the lake.

In fact, he’s noticed in the last few years that there has been an overall decrease in fishing pressure...
You are reaching for a cause and effect here. Fishermen have such a small effect on trout populations. A real 'cause' during this time frame would be Rita, can't you see that? Again going back to the marsh degradation from Rita, and as Smalls was saying its actually coming back, it takes a few years to see the progression, it will take a few generations of fish to get back to what it once was

Big trout will eat the smaller trout also, so debunk the thought above and if you of all people really think there is LESS pressure on the lake
