Striped Bass
While perhaps not the first place that comes to mind for striped bass, Westlake, Louisiana, offers a unique opportunity to target these fish in the Calcasieu River. Stripers migrate into the river system, particularly during the cooler months, to feed. Winter and early spring are typically the most productive times. Look for them around bridges, channel edges, and areas with current. Live bait, such as shad or mullet, can be highly effective. Artificial lures like swimbaits and crankbaits that mimic baitfish are also good choices. The Calcasieu River is a navigable waterway, so be mindful of boat traffic. Access is available via several public boat launches in and around Westlake. Remember that striped bass regulations may vary, so check the current Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries guidelines before your trip. These stripers can be surprisingly large, offering a challenging and rewarding fishing experience.
