Red River Fishing Forecast 11/22/2024: Mild Temps, Stable Conditions, and Promising Bites

  • Summary

  • For anglers heading to the Red River in Shreveport today, November 22, 2024, here’s what you can expect for a successful fishing trip.

    First off, there are no significant tides to worry about on the Red River, as it is a freshwater river. Sunrise today is at about 6:43 AM, and sunset will be around 5:14 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    The weather is looking mild, with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to the mid-70s Fahrenheit. Expect a light wind blowing at about 5 miles per hour, making it an ideal day for fishing. There is a slight chance of precipitation, but it should not significantly impact your plans.

    The water level on the Red River is currently stable, providing a favorable environment for fishing. The water temperature is in the mid-70s, which is perfect for a variety of fish species. Water clarity is good, allowing you to spot fish and navigate the river effectively.

    Yesterday saw good activity, particularly for largemouth bass and catfish. Anglers reported catching several largemouth bass in the 2- to 4-pound range, often found along the sandbars and rock jetties, especially where there is current.

    For bass, use crankbaits, jerk baits, and soft plastics like Ned rigs or Carolina rigs. Catfish can be caught using nightcrawlers, chicken livers, or stink baits. If you're targeting panfish, panfish jigs and small spinners will be effective.

    Some hot spots to focus on include Benoit Bayou, Racetrack Bayou, and the points around the Long-Allen Bridge. These spots are known for their irregularities in the water, such as sandbanks and holes, which attract a wide range of fish. Additionally, the Jefferson Shreveport Waterway Project and the areas around Wright Island are also productive spots.

    Bass are likely to be active during the major bite times, which today are from 6:01 to 8:01 AM and 6:21 to 8:21 PM. Catfish, on the other hand, can be found in deeper holes and are more active at night or during the minor bite times.

    With these conditions and tips in mind, you're set for a successful and enjoyable fishing trip on the Red River in Shreveport today. Tight lines
