Thread: Ramah

I’ve been looking for a places close to Baton Rouge and within paddling distance since I sold my boat. I’ve asked around about the Ramah to Bayou Sorrel area and saw a post recently about it. Got off the Ramah exit and headed south down the levee and went down and launched my kayak on the west side to the first borrow pit.
Water didn’t have much flow to it but looked good. First three hook ups turned out to be gar which didn’t help my confidence in a new area but slowly started to figure things out. All my fish came slow rolling a road runner in the cuts between the bayou and barrow pits. Had quite a few throw backs and some small bass in the mix. While making my way back I fished a couple over hanging bushes and fence posts in about 4’ of water catching a pair of good sized bream and one large chinkapen. I like the area and will probably try to make another trip there in the upcoming weeks.
