Striped Bass
While not as widely known as other Louisiana fisheries, the waterways near Mermentau can offer a unique opportunity to chase striped bass in a freshwater environment. These fish, likely landlocked populations or escapees from stocking programs, can be found in the Mermentau River and connected canals. The cooler months, from late fall through early spring, are generally the most productive, as the stripers seek cooler water and forage for baitfish. Focus your efforts around areas with current, such as bridges and creek mouths. Crankbaits, swimbaits, and topwater lures can all be effective. A key tip is to target areas where the river narrows or where there are submerged structures that create eddies. Access to the river is available at several public boat launches, including the one near the Highway 90 bridge. Keep in mind that striped bass regulations may differ from other species, so be sure to check the current Louisiana fishing regulations before you go. Success can be sporadic, but the reward of landing a striped bass in this unexpected location is well worth the effort.
