Fly fishing for Different Fall Species
Although most of our customers come down in the fall to target redfish there are many other opportunities on fly… Foster has caught many big redfish on fly so he wanted to do something different. I was all about it… We started in redfish areas passing on “most” redfish to target alligator gar and drum. […]
Big redfish season is here…
September is when we start getting very busy. Although the big fish have not moved into the shallows we are still able to target them in open water with the weather permitting(reasonable winds and sunlight)… This will continue usually through mid October when a good cold front pushes the bigger fish shallow. Although we have […]
Fly fishing for Jack Crevalle in New Orleans’ backyard…
Starting in June schools of mullet start moving into Lake Ponchartrain. Following these schools is one of my favorite and most overlooked gamefish, Jack Crevalle aka Marsh tuna aka Jackie boy… With the right conditions the lake clears showing its vast sand flats littered with small grass patches. The jacks cruise up and down the […]
February

Trophy Sheepshead
In November the Louisiana Marsh is known for having big red fish. But Mile Haines couldn’t pass up the opportunity and made a great cast on this trophy sheepshead while it was tailing for crabs. – Captain Jim Dietz

Starting from the top… Cindy came down and for the 3rd year in a row, nailed some great fishing. This time was especially good timing because we were fishing the redbone, which is a non profit tournament held to raise money for cystic fibrosis. Well we got the big one! 34 lb 46 in red […]
Redfish Blowing up on Topwater
Cold Weather, Hot Fishing
Jim came down from Alabama to get his first crack at some big redfish. What a heck of a guy and a pretty darn good fisherman as well. It’s been cold but the fishing has been hot. – Capt. Paul Lappin
Mid-December Fun Fishing
Had a day off, so what did I do? Went fishing, of course. And man it was cold. Captain Ryan Frederick and I managed to put a few in the boat before heading back to the warmth of the truck. Fun day!! – Capt. Paul Lappin
Tournament Fishing
Had a chance to fish with Gary Ellis and Brower Moffitt for the Redbone Tournament benefiting cystic fibrosis. What a great cause and what a fun day on the water with these two characters. – Capt. Paul Lappin
