 Morning yall this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Red River fishing report for the Shreveport area on this fine Saturday May 17 2025. If youre itching to wet a line the river is treating anglers right with steady water at about 14 feet and that classic stained look that gets the fish feeding. The weather is cooperating with a springtime feel highs around 75 degrees and mostly clear skies. Winds are light so both boaters and shore anglers have no trouble getting to their favorite spots. Sunrise was at 6 50 AM and you have until 7 47 PM for sunset giving us a good long day of fishing.

Water temps are running 60 to 65 degrees and with spawning in full swing fish activity is hot especially for largemouth bass and crappie. The stained water is making the bass feel comfortable and theyre biting well around the sandbars rock jetties and backwater coves. Plenty of anglers are reporting hefty bass and crappie stringers this week. Crappie are stacked up near brush and structure with both numbers and size impressing local folks.

As for tackle heres whats working Bandit 200 crankbaits in shad or chartreuse have been a favorite for bass especially around current breaks and jetties. Dont sleep on Texas rigged creature baits in black and blue flake or a soft jerkbait like a Shadick along grass lines and timber. For crappie small tube jigs or minnows are still getting the job done especially in the early morning and late evening hours.

Catfish are still running steady too especially in the deeper holes and along the channel edges. Cut shad nightcrawlers and chicken liver are the top baits for them right now.

Hot spots you should check out today include the backwater sloughs around Hamel Memorial Park for crappie and bass and the rock jetties just south of the downtown boat launch. Both have seen plenty of action this week according to the local crews.

If youre thinking about timing your trip the bite has been best early morning right after sunrise and again around sunset. With the river steady and weather stable expect good fishing all through the weekend.
