Bluegill
If you're looking for some relaxed bluegill fishing in Louisiana, Hammond offers several accessible freshwater spots. The Tangipahoa River and its tributaries provide ideal habitat, with plenty of shoreline vegetation and submerged structure. Lake Pontchartrain, though a larger body of water, also holds bluegill in its shallower, vegetated areas closer to shore. Spring and early summer are prime times, as the fish move into the shallows to spawn. Look for bedding areas in calm, sun-warmed coves. A simple cane pole with a cricket or worm is all you need to get started. For bank access, try the public parks along the Tangipahoa, or check for boat launches to explore further. Be mindful of water levels, as heavy rains can impact clarity and flow. A local tip: many anglers swear by using small jigs under a bobber when the bite is slow.
