FAILED at fishing
 

Arrive at 7 and fished til 11 First day fishing in 3 years and Nothing, the only thing that was biting was hard head catfish! Fished on the jetty at Cameron with soft bait,dod shrimp, and no luck then switched over to dead shrimp.
Then drove to Rockefeller/ Price Lake rd the crab where out and shrimp were out also but did not have any net or cast net to catch either or.

Is they any fish in Price Lake Rd?

Any time you're fishing it's a success, not a fail.

Will try to hit Rockefeller tom morning again this time I will be ready to catch. Is they any fish in those water? Price lake rd or any recommendation, will have to be bank fishing.

Drive a lil past Rockefeller and fish the mermentau for reds.

Prolly reds, try a popn cork with salty grub, sparkle beetle, etc.....dont give up keep chunkin and good luck.

I never fished off price lake rd, just crab and shrimp which are running pretty good know, you can catch a few specks and reds off the bank at Joesphs' harbor if the water looks ok.

I've never caught a fish off price lake, caught one trout and allot of trash fish at Joseph harbor. You'd have much better odds of catching at mermentau IMO.

Is it okay to bank fish off of Joseph Harbor even if its close? Looking at googlemap I cannot find Mermentau?

if the water is greenish at j harbor you can catch all you want, i have caught plenty there like i said if the water is right,now with all the rain latly the water is most probably not right.

yes you can fish off the bank, just stay on the same side as the road.

10 miles past Rockefeller on the right after the bridge.

thanks alot! Hopefully something will bite tom

When you leave Cameron and get to Grand Chenier, The Mermentau runs under the draw bridge.

Fish under the draw bridge. On the North West side is the best place to fish the bank. They have a lot of shells on the bottom.

Good luck, report back. If I was off again, I'd meet ya out there.

Around here? The google street view had an older fella walking across the bridge with a nice red in hand.
:D

NICE! what is the best rig to catch those red with popping cork?

Water looks muddy at Grand Cheir in that pick...lmao

Probably dead shrimp on the bottom if you don't get hung up too bad. If the bottom is too dirty, you can try under a cork. Or you can try gulp, spinnerbaits, rattletraps etc.

If you are not catching much at the Mermentau river bridge, try following the road on the northwest side farther north (NE) and there is another open spot along the river a little ways up the river.

Bring a chair, umbrella and cold drinks......enjoy the day.

Sounds like its time to save up some change and find you a yak so you can get off the bank..... lots of guys on here yakin that you could go with

I was thinking about it but I can't SWIM! plus I have a car. Should have bought me a truck instead of a car when I gotten back from Afghanistan : (
.

They have roof racks for cars or they sell pads to put on roof to haul a yak and just wear you a good lifejacket. and get a good stable yak..... you would be really surprised with your options and places you could go
