  • Lake Calcasieu

    Got an invite to fish lake Calcasieu With a buddy tomorrow morning! He has only fished there a handful of times and I've never fished there, does anyone have any tips on where to head or colors to throw? Im planning on taking the normal corky, tails, and topwaters just wondering if anyone has an opinion on specfic colors. Any Info is greatly appreciated thanks in advance!

      Wear LSU colors and you should blend in just fine.

      If I were making a trip down there, I would fish the ship channel edges and coves.

        You should have the lake to yourself with the Saints playing Sat. nite!! I have never been in January so I can't tell You what to throw, just try alot to find out what they want. Look for nervous bait and You should tear'em up! Have fun!!!

            be aware if fishing/wading near the ship channel, some of the ships coming thru pull a lot of water and then throw a heck of a wake! i have seen anchored boats go dry and then nearly get swamped by the wave that eventually follows..

                Use LSU (purple and chartreuse) bass assassins. We fish the marsh generally thru the locks on east side in Big Lake. You can also try over the many reefs drifting-also along the south shore. I wouldn't try wading (mud city). You could call the Boudreaux Brothers (in Hackberry-Brad Boudreaux)-they guide on their own and are not HR&G-great guys and they get into the marsh and will cover the heck outta the whole complex-I've made 20 mile runs with them all the way to Black bayou. Check out the drains from the marsh lakes. If you go through a lock, you may need a boat pass from Miami Corp. (jerks) and they (the locks) can be scary running through-height and current plus darn narrow. Once in marsh, it's muddy but you can plane out -no shell to bust up lower units-just mud like mad. You could also try the Poe's-good folks-Big Lake Guide Service.

                Better get/have your license!!!

                  Just a little bit of info. I went yesterday. It was pretty bad. No water movement at all. We fished all day and caught 3. We were even next to Paul Brown for a little while we were wading. Maybe y'all will do better. Good luck!

                    Also the water down on the south end was gin clear. Could easily see the bottom in 4-5 foot. No bait either, might save y'all some effort.
