Redfin Pickerel
Targeting Redfin Pickerel around Baton Rouge offers a unique freshwater experience. These ambush predators thrive in the slow-moving, heavily vegetated waters of the bayous and backwaters connected to the Mississippi River. Prime time is late winter and early spring as the water warms and they begin their spawning rituals. Focus on areas with submerged vegetation, fallen logs, and undercut banks. A canoe or kayak is ideal for accessing these productive spots. Local tip: try small spinnerbaits or minnow imitations retrieved slowly near cover. The Redfin Pickerel population here is known for its striking coloration, often displaying vibrant red fins against a dark green body. Be aware of alligators and other wildlife while navigating these waters.
