    Lake Ponchartrain Zoo

    The crowd in cautachie has moved to the causeway. Fished the last two days for trout and I have never seen that many boats. Usually plenty of space on the bridges but it was covered up. Most people were good but they had there share of idiots pulling right up on you are worse jumping ahead 2-3 piling to start fishing.

    The rail road bridge in slidell is the same way, fished friday and the boats were unreal, I guess nobody works a 5 day workweek anymore. We caught some nice trout .

    Re: Lake Ponchartrain Zoo (fishinfoolsonny)

    I've never been out there and would love to take my dad for a trip. Is it something one could do and not run in to something? Where do you launch?

    There are several options to launch from. Bonnabel launch is the closes to the causeway. The fish are on the entire bridge with the crowds around the humps on the bridges. Don't make the drive if the marine forecast is more than 10-15. If you have a bass boat then it best be about 10 knots or less. also, a west wind is no good. Im me if you need more info.
