Lake Cataouatche Fishing Report
Lake Cataouatche is one of the closest place to fish from Downtown New Orleans, and a world class largemouth bass. Most of the locals would rather target and eat Trout, Reds, and other saltwater table fare. Cataouatche Lake’s western side holds more of the bass, while the eastern shore tends to have more reds, probably due to the Davis pond diversion dumping into the east side.
Locations like Bayou Coba and Umbrella Canal are excellent spots to pick a patch of grass and throw a topwater frog. However, if the topwater approach disappoints, a fluke will not fail at pulling a lurking bass from its hiding place. The Umbrella Canal in the northwestern corner of the lake is one of the hot spots for largemouth.
The ponds are another great location to hit the grass shoreline to fill the cooler. Lake Cataouatche is also the location for most of the gator and swamp tours for the New Orlenans tourists. It was also one of the main bodies of water for the Bass Masters that was held in New Orleans for many years.
