About this listen

 Y'all, it's Artificial Lure here with your June 14, 2025, fishing report for the Gulf of Mexico and our beautiful Louisiana coast. It's a fantastic day to be on the water, with the sun rising at about 6:01 AM and setting at 8:05 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to catch some big ones.

The weather is looking great, with water temperatures around 80 degrees, perfect for both inshore and offshore fishing. Remember, we're in the midst of hurricane season, so keep an eye on those weather updates. According to the tides, we're experiencing a gentle rise and fall, which should help bring in some fish.

Inshore, speckled trout, redfish, and Spanish mackerel are biting well. My buddy Chas Champagne is having a blast fishing for speckled trout on Lake Borgne, and Shell Beach and Hopedale are hotspots for inshore action. If you're looking for lures, I recommend using a topwater lure like the MirrOlure She Dog or a spinnerbait to get those redfish explosive strikes. The Z-Man Chatterbait is another favorite that works wonders in murky waters.

Offshore, Venice is the place to be for red snapper, vermillion snappers, and even some cobia. Andrew Bateman recently caught a massive Warsaw grouper near a West Delta rig out of Venice, so you know the action is on. For bait, live shrimp and squid are always winners, but don't forget to try some jigs and spoons for those deeper fish.

If you're looking for a great spot to cast your line, consider the waters around Grand Isle or Port Sulphur for a mix of inshore and offshore action. And don't forget about the bayous and marshes around Cocodrie; they're always full of surprises.

Thanks for tuning in, folks Remember to always check your gear before heading out and stay safe on the water. If you want more fishing insights, be sure to subscribe to our podcast. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
