I've been getting a lot of the same question lately:
"Will the Bonnet Carré Spillway opening affect the spring run of speckled trout at the MRGO Long Rocks?"
It's a good question, since a lot of us are depending on it for good trout action before they're all in harder-to-reach locations during the spawn.
So what's the answer?
The answer is "probably not", when you consider:
If the above graphic doesn't make it obvious, the real concern isn't the Bonnet Carré Spillway.
Instead, it's the much higher volume of river water much closer from the south.
All About Wind
Ultimately, how much that affects the MRGO Long Rocks will depend on what the wind does.
You need a great wind forecast to figure that out, and for that you should really check out Windfinder.
Tight lines, y'all!

Don't forget, you can watch my latest fishing trips inside LAFB Elite (so you know where to go and what to use).
