For October 31, 2024, fishing on the Red River in Shreveport is looking promising despite some recent challenges. Here’s what you need to know:
First off, there are no significant tides to worry about on the Red River, as it is a freshwater river. Sunrise today is at 7:24 AM, and sunset will be at 6:33 PM, with the moon at 72% full, rising at 11:03 PM and setting at 1:17 PM.
Weather-wise, expect a mild day with temperatures in the mid-70s to low 80s, ideal for both bass and catfish fishing. The water levels on the Red River have been experiencing some fluctuations but are starting to stabilize, which is good news for fish activity.
Yesterday saw a decent catch of fish, particularly largemouth bass and catfish. Anglers reported catching several largemouth bass in the 2- to 4-pound range, often found along the sandbars and rock jetties, especially where there is current. For bass, concentrate your efforts on the backsides of these sandbars and jetties, and areas close to runouts, bayous, and ditches. Crankbaits in shad, bream, or bright colors with chartreuse are highly effective. If the crankbait bite slows, switch to a june bug or similarly colored 6- or 7-inch V&M worm with a ¼-ounce slip sinker, fished slowly on the points of these areas.
For catfish, dead sucker remains a top choice for larger fish, while shrimp is still working well for smaller ones. Use a minimum of a 5oz sinker to keep your bait in place. Hot spots include areas around submerged tree stumps and root balls, as well as the middle sections of the river where fish are moving back after the spawn. The area near the Hwy 1 Bridge is also worth checking out.
White bass are also abundant and can provide a bonus for bass fishermen, as they stack up similarly to largemouth bass and offer lots of action.
Remember to give each spot a good 30 minutes to allow the fish to find your bait. Patience is key, especially as the fish adjust to the stabilizing water levels. Overall, it's a good day to get out on the Red River and try your luck. Happy fishing
