The shrimpers at Vermilion Bay Seafood told me that these very early and intense cold fronts have pushed the trout and shrimp out to deeper water so there's not much to catch in V Bay.

I was thinking about that topic wondering if these fronts were triggering the shrimp migration. Usually when it gets cold the shrimp head out of the bay to the gulf. The trout make the change from feeding on shrimp to fish.

well there isnt that many guides on lake P. and there are plenty people who live close to lake p who are guides other places south of the lake. I have only seen a few reports on lake P. and the reports have been from the causeway and they were from 2 weeks ago.

I have been away for the last weeks, smoked them last Tuesday around the causeway. From what my friends are telling me that are still fishing lake p, is that there are still some big girls being caught at the causeway and trussels.

I will back on the water come 6Dec, and hope to still be able to find those girls hanging around.

Yep, I know Matt! I have 3 packs of the "magic color". Learned that lesson from a fellow SC member on the water last year while fishing the cove.

I have only found them 1 place around here and ran into a gentleman in Academy last weekend looking for them. He said the other place was sold out.

For the 1800 stalkers and non posters...Tsunami swim baits...certain color...not sold at Academy...dont potlick...introduce yourself to others on the water...

I just got back from a 13 hour day on VBay. Was on Caldwell for daybreak. Fished Tette Butte, the rocks at the Tigue, Diamond, Dry, the mouth of the worm, the hammock. The cove, the trash pile, the Chene, and finished up in the little bay. Went through a binder of waypoints. This is all I caught.

I probably bought all the packs lol. But I can't lie they treated me really good late fall into winter if the river stays low the trout will stay long after the freezers are full.

So here's a question as with the higher temps: mid 60's in the like. Do the trout stay in the bay? Or have they left for good till next summer? I want to go back out...just wondering if I should focus on reds when the water temps hit 55 again on those indian summer days or not? and if so..we talking dry reef? cove? weeks? chene? ie. how far north? Pm if you dont want this a public conversation. I have been exploring more and more other than the regular community spots...but figuring this bay out seasonly is a challenge. Some of you old timers let me know. Shoot, I'll leave the boat at home and come ride with and pay 1/2 gas and bait. Just tired of striking out on this body of water....vent over.

Rev, the fish usually stay in the bay until Christmas or a bit longer. that's when i stop fishing and start hunting though.

What makes the bay tough is that its so big and the trout move around constantly. Me and many others have stories where you limit out one morning, go back for round 2 the next and scratch. Now that gets aggravating.

what I have been doing over the past year is really using the HDS on my boat. I scan the community holes and look for other areas that are similar. I have found a few out of the way spots. Never stop exploring and trying new things. you will get discourage but I find whiskey helps with that...
