If you're targeting largemouth bass near Harahan, Louisiana, the maze of waterways connected to the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain offer diverse fishing opportunities. This area is a mix of brackish and freshwater, so bass are adaptable. Prime time is spring (March-May) when bass are spawning in the canals and backwaters. Fall (October-November) is also productive as bass feed heavily before winter. Try fishing the canals off of the Intracoastal Waterway; many have boat launches and bank access points. Local tip: Pay attention to the tide. An incoming tide can bring in clearer, saltier water which pushes the bass further up into the canals and bayous. Use weedless lures around the abundant vegetation, as the bass love to ambush prey from cover here. The bass in this region tend to be chunky, so be ready for a fight.
