  • Summary

  • For those heading out to the Red River in Shreveport today, November 9, 2024, here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Sunrise/Sunset
    Expect a mild day with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to low 80s, ideal for both bass and catfish fishing. Sunrise is at around 6:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:23 PM.

    ### Water Conditions
    The water levels on the Red River have been stabilizing after some recent fluctuations, which is good news for fish activity. The water temperature is still in the mid-70s, perfect for a variety of fish species.

    ### Tidal and Solunar Times
    Since the Red River is a freshwater river, there are no significant tides to worry about. However, the major bite times today are from around 5:46 AM to 7:46 AM and 6:06 PM to 8:06 PM, with minor bite times from 11:47 AM to 1:47 PM and 10:25 PM to 12:25 AM. These times coincide with the nautical twilight, making them prime for fish activity.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a decent catch of fish, particularly 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. Catfish were also caught, particularly around submerged tree stumps and root balls.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    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.

    ### Hot Spots
    Focus on areas like 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.

    Remember to always check local fishing regulations and ensure you are aware of catch limits and any closed areas. With these conditions and tips in mind, you're set for a successful and enjoyable fishing trip on the Red River in Shreveport. Tight lines
