Great Weather Fly Fishing in Louisiana
It probably only happens a couple days a year but it happens… Light winds and blue bird skies… This makes for some incredible Louisiana fly fishing. The good weather makes areas fish able that otherwise would not be. Good weather mixed with anglers with the ability to get the job done is a recipe for […]
Fly fishing for Little Redfish to Save the Day!
With the Mississippi River much higher then usual we have had dirty river water invading are normally clear winter big redfish zones. This makes for a tough day to just go target big redfish. Although I will try for a while, at a certain point I just want to catch some fish… Fortunately the little […]
Tailing Big Redfish
I would consider seeing a 25+lb fish tailing in less than a foot of water one of the greatest sights you could see in the marsh. Now this isn’t something that happens everyday but if you have the right conditions this time of year and you’re in the right spot, your odds go way up. […]
The most wonderful time of the year… Sheepy season!
Starting in mid November and going through mid March is what I consider Sheepshead season. Not to say there are not sheepies here through the year it’s just easiest to fish for them during these times. This is due to the fact the water in the oyster ponds tend to get very clear during this […]
Winter fly fishing action
Although we have had a mild winter, we are still seeing a healthy amount of wintering redfish in the marsh.

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
As usual during February the weather has been somewhat an issue. But as usual when the weather was good the fishing was good. February is still considered prime time for big Redfish in the marsh. The water is still clear and the big fish are still holding in their normal winter spots. What also happens […]
