Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 14:2 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

    Proximity:

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

Tide Coefficient at 11:40 am is 94
For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

Fishing Overview New Iberia

The New Iberia area sits in a prime transition zone between freshwater and coastal marsh, which makes it one of south Louisiana’s most versatile fisheries. You can launch on the Bayou Teche or nearby canals and be catching largemouth bass and catfish in protected water, then slide a bit farther south toward the marsh for redfish, speckled trout, and flounder when salinity pushes in. Successful anglers pay close attention to water clarity, tide movement, and wind direction, as those three factors dictate when and where the bite turns on.

Seasonal patterns are straightforward but important. In late winter and early spring, bass, crappie, and bream group up in the Teche, borrow pits, and back canals; slow-rolled spinnerbaits, Texas-rigged worms, and small tube jigs under corks are consistent producers. As water warms into late spring and summer, speckled trout and redfish move deeper into the marsh and nearby bays; early mornings around points, shell pads, and current-swept drains are prime. Fall is arguably the best all-around season, with shrimp and baitfish pouring out of the marsh and concentrating trout, reds, black drum, and flounder in the deeper bayous and passes. Winter fishing focuses on slower presentations for redfish, sheepshead, and drum in deeper, slightly warmer holes and along rock or riprap banks.

The habitat mix around New Iberia demands flexibility. Shallow marsh ponds and grass flats call for quiet approaches and light tackle. Work shorelines, cuts, and pockets with soft plastics on 1/8–1/4 oz jigheads, popping cork rigs, and weedless spoons for redfish and trout. The main bayous, barge canals, and the lower Teche provide deeper, more structured water where catfish, drum, and bass hold around bends, pilings, bulkheads, and eddies. Vertical presentations with Carolina rigs, drop-shot setups, or simple bottom rigs baited with cut shad, shrimp, or nightcrawlers excel in these spots.

Productive techniques and lures are surprisingly simple. For inshore redfish and trout, a 3–4 inch paddle tail or shrimp-style plastic in natural colors (glow, opening night, chartreuse tail) under a popping cork covers water efficiently; pop, let it settle, and pause long enough for fish to find it. Weedless gold spoons and spinnerbaits shine when wind muddies the banks or when you’re searching large stretches of shoreline. For bass, standard Louisiana marsh staples—black/blue or junebug worms, white or chartreuse spinnerbaits, and shallow squarebill crankbaits—take fish around wood, grass, and riprap.

Tactical tips for New Iberia revolve around reading water and tides. Focus on visible current seams at marsh drains, bayou bends, and intersections; even modest flow will stack trout, reds, and catfish just off the strongest current. Slightly stained green or “tea” colored water is better than crystal clear or chocolate-muddy water. On windy days, fish the leeward banks where bait is pushed but clarity is still fair. In summer, plan to fish early and late, targeting shady sides of banks, overhanging trees, and deeper canal edges during the mid-day lull. Year-round, downsizing leader and using quieter movements in narrow bayous and ponds will noticeably increase strikes in this pressured, yet highly productive, south Louisiana fishery.

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 13 beaches and bays in this area.

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish. Similar to river mouths, harbour entrances are also great places to fish as lots of fish will move in and out with the rising and falling tides. There are 1 main harbours in this area.
