Thanks
Welcome to the forum....Henderson been real slow for me last few trips.....fish might be in the woods.....heard some fish being caught deep...lot of muddy water right now...
Prefers Shiners thanks for getting back to me. Yea and looking at the weather forecast it will probably continue to be slow for a few more weeks.
Welcome to the forum, I don't really fish that area so can't help you there but PS always has the know on Henderson!

I went Sunday also and not a bite! I normally catch my share in Henderson as I have been fishing it all my life. I suspect with the water falling it will clear up some and the bite should pick up.

Welcome to the forum from the SW portion of LA, Basin Rambler!
Henderson's a tough place to learn. The water level changes all the time and certain areas clear up faster than others. The pros can tell you where/when that occurs based on river levels. I'm not that pro! I've done well at certain times but I always feel like I'm chasing them out there.Quote:

hthoang I did not know people fished that. On the map it looks like the atchafalaya river. Are you fish little bayous off the main river channel? Where do you launch the boat to fish whiskey bay?
Thanks
That's the whiskey bay pilot channel. When I say whiskey bay, i mean the canal under I-10. There are launches at either end of the canal. I usually launch at the west one because I'm coming from Lafayette-exit 126. Some people fish that side canal called the work canal but I usually stick to the bridge pilings. They move around in there so just try different areas until you find them. Don't waste time on more than a few pilings before moving. Good water and bait usually means fish.Quote:
