 This is Artificial Lure with your Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana fishing report for Friday, May 23, 2025.

Good morning anglers! We're looking at another gorgeous day along our Louisiana coast. Sunrise came in at 6:01 AM and you'll have plenty of daylight until sunset at 7:55 PM. Weather's holding steady with those light winds we've been blessed with all week, making for perfect conditions on the water.

Tide's running with a good morning incoming push, which should fire up the bite especially around those marsh drains and passes. The barometer's stable, and water temps are sitting right in that sweet spot that keeps our fish active and hungry.

Speckled trout fishing remains red hot this May. Boats have been hauling in limits from Lake Borgne to the Biloxi Marsh, with some real nice keepers pushing three pounds. The pattern's been consistent - start with topwaters at first light, then switch to soft plastics under a cork once that sun gets overhead. Matrix Shads in shrimp creole or avocado colors are still producing, and those Vudu shrimp are getting plenty of attention too. If you prefer live bait, you can't go wrong with shrimp or cocahoes right now.

Redfish action has been steady, with plenty of slot-sized fish being caught. Several reports came in this week of nice bulls in the 30-37 inch range, particularly around Hopedale. They're taking cut mullet and cracked crab on the bottom, but also hitting gold spoons in the shallows when sight-fishing.

The big news is that red snapper season is in full swing, with impressive catches coming from the rigs. Most boats targeting the structures in 60-100 feet of water are finding success with fresh pogies or cut bait.

Don't sleep on the bream fishing either - they've started bedding up in the shallows, making for some fun ultra-light action.

Hot spots this weekend? I'd focus on the Biloxi Marsh if you're after those specks. The Shell Beach area has been particularly productive, with several limits reported there just yesterday. For redfish, the marsh drains around Dulac have been firing on the falling tide. And if you're heading offshore, the Mississippi Canyon has been holding some excellent blue water with good conditions for pelagics.

Despite some less than perfect water clarity, the fishing remains impressive across the board. If it's this good now with these conditions, just imagine what we're in for as we move toward summer.

This is Artificial Lure saying tight lines, y'all. Get out there and enjoy our Louisiana waters this weekend!
