What to Expect on the Water

From the moment you step aboard our fully-equipped fishing vessel, you're in for a treat. We'll cruise through Louisiana's rich coastal marshes and estuaries, prime habitat for a variety of gamefish. Your seasoned captain will share local knowledge and fishing tips as we hit productive spots throughout the day.

Fishing Tactics & Hotspots

We'll employ a mix of tried-and-true inshore fishing methods to put you on the fish. Expect to do some light tackle casting along grass lines and oyster reefs, where redfish and trout love to ambush bait. We might also drift fish over deeper holes or troll along channels, depending on what's biting. Your captain will have a arsenal of live bait and artificial lures to match the conditions. Some days, we'll sight fish for tailing reds in the shallows – an exciting visual experience that'll get your heart pumping. Throughout the trip, you'll learn the local techniques that consistently produce fish in these waters.

Top Catches This Season

Louisiana's inshore waters are teeming with prized gamefish, and we target some of the best. Here's a rundown of what you might hook into on your trip:

Redfish (Red Drum): The crown jewel of Louisiana inshore fishing, redfish are known for their powerful runs and delicious flavor. These copper-colored bruisers can be found year-round, but fall is prime time when they school up in big numbers. Look for their characteristic spot near the tail. Redfish in the 5-10 pound range are common, but trophy "bull reds" over 20 pounds are always a possibility.

Speckled Trout: A favorite among light tackle enthusiasts, speckled trout (or "specks" as the locals call them) are abundant in Louisiana waters. These silvery fish with distinctive spots put up a great fight on light gear and are excellent table fare. Spring and fall are peak seasons, but you can catch them year-round. Expect fish in the 1-3 pound range, with some gators (big trout) pushing 5 pounds or more.

Black Drum: Often overlooked but hard-fighting and great eating, black drum are a staple of inshore fishing here. These cousins of the redfish can be found around oyster reefs and channel edges. They're known for their distinctive "croaking" sound and powerful pulls. We typically catch them in the 5-15 pound range, but larger specimens over 30 pounds aren't uncommon.

Sheepshead: With their distinctive black and white stripes and sheep-like teeth, these fish are a unique catch. Sheepshead are structure-oriented, often found around pilings, rocks, and oyster reefs. They're notorious bait stealers, so hooking them can be tricky – but that's part of the fun! Best fishing is typically in the cooler months, and they make for some of the best eating around.

Southern Flounder: These flat ambush predators are prized for both their fight and their fillets. Flounder fishing picks up in the fall as they move towards the Gulf to spawn. We'll target them around drop-offs and structure using both live bait and artificial lures. Landing a big "doormat" flounder is always a highlight of any trip.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

There's something special about Louisiana's inshore waters that keeps fishermen coming back year after year. Maybe it's the sheer abundance of fish, or the variety of species you can target in a single day. Perhaps it's the breathtaking coastal scenery, with its maze of bayous and marshes teeming with wildlife. Or it could be the rich local culture and world-famous cuisine that makes every fishing trip here feel like a true adventure.

But ask any angler who's fished these waters, and they'll tell you it's the memories made on the water that really stick with you. It's the thrill of watching a redfish tail in skinny water, the bend in your rod as a big trout hits a topwater lure, or the satisfaction of filleting your catch for a fresh fish dinner. With our experienced guides and top-notch equipment, we make sure you're in the best position to create those lasting memories.
