The effects of this weather are going to last a lot longer than some people realize. LOTS of dead trout over 25 inches with the largest being 30" and 9.2 lbs

That sucks. Every few years we have a trout kill here on the NC coast due to a hard freeze. Takes a little while but the numbers bounce back.

That does suck! Those will all be washed to shore eventually, won't they? Weather causing a fish kill... My favorite quarry.

It took four-five years for us to catch a trout after '83. It's gonna be even worse than they think if it's killing redfish and drum.

Crap. I was going to start after them seriously this spring. Couldnt do it last year after retiring the summer before, due to the Commie flu lockdown. Seemed like there would have been a bumper crop this year after light pressure last spring. I wonder how they fared in La?

I'm on the Tx/La border and it's bad. Don't know about the other side of the river.

No , not really for the Reds. That’s about the max size before they head offshore to live. Once they get to breeding size they only come inshore to spawn. The spawning size congregate in big schools and were a real pita for me when I grouper fished for a living. You couldn’t get a bait to the bottom if the Reds were on a rock. All you could do was move to a different spot. I’ve seen schools of thousands of 40-60+ pound redfish offshore. There will be few if any keeper redfish inshore for a few years until spawners replace them. The trout on the other hand are decimated ! Sad.

What don't die will when that snow melts off and that super cooled water mixes with what is already cold. Happens in NC ever few years but our reds leave the sounds and move off the beaches so mainly does not hurt them......

Don't those TX fish know to move to deeper water as it cools?

Haven’t heard much about the central and east Louisiana coastal areas and marshes.

They do if they can, but there are millions of acres of shallow bay systems and marsh where they get trapped or can't get out fast enough. This is a sub-tropical environment that gets wiped out by cold every few decades.

That sucks, heading down to Port Mansfield mid April for a couple months. Enjoyed some excellent fishing for the last few years during this period.
