Fishing down in Shell Beach Louisiana this fall/winter has been absolutely phenomenal! The redfish and speckled trout have hit their winter patterns right on time this year. We’ve been throwing a lot of artificial baits and some live shrimp under a cork. Finding the perfect tidelines with bait in them have been fairly easy the last few weeks. I have been stepping away from the crowds of community holes and venturing out to find different fish that haven’t been so pressured. We have been working some really stout speckled trout deep in the ponds, and redfish have been tucked up tight on the banks. This cool weather has them eating up and looks to continue on this pattern for a good while.

Fishing down in Shell Beach Louisiana has been nothing short of amazing this fall. The cooler temps are really putting these speckled trout and redfish in their fall patterns. We've had a huge push of sheepshead the last week or 2 along with the already plentiful speckled trout. Running grass lines and oyster reefs for trout , throwing live shrimp or artificial baits under a cork and carolina rigging live shrimp and DOA shrimp have been a killer the last few weeks. The fishing is looking to continue like this for a good while.

The fishing I Shell Beach has been pretty good this fall so far. The weather is rite and the fish are hungry. The tides have changed and are now falling in the morning and the bait has been pouring out of the ponds and channels.

Fishing down in Shell Beach Louisiana has been pretty steady considering the heat and rain we've been having. Speckled trout and redfish have been plentiful this summer!
With good tidal movements all summer along with plenty of bait, the fish are here, and hungry! We've seen an uptick in tripletail this year as well. The Red Snapper have been great also. We don't have much longer for the season to be open. But the this weekend for labor day, we have a 4 day weekend to target Red Snapper among many other species out there in the deep waters.
The fall should be phenomenal down here this year with plenty of Speckled trout, redfish and sheepshead.

The weather is hot in Nola but so is the morning fishing! With water temps reaching the upper 80s mid day the best time to target our slot fish this time of year is during the morning hours while the water temps are cooler and fish are up on the...

Fishing down here has been pretty good considering how hott it's been the last few weeks. We've had some good tides and good bait moving in. The speckled trout are devouring the white shrimp rite now. We are also throwing allot of artificial baits as well to target trout and redfish. The sheepshead will start to make their way inshore to start spawning once the Temps start to drop in a few weeks. But the big ticket is the big refish run thats going to start sometime next week and run through late October into November.

The fishing has been good, it’s hot of course, but the bite has been great early in the morning and later in the evening. Speckled trout have been doing really good under the birds, and the reds are pushing to deeper water to cool down, but the bit is still...

My wife and I fished with Captain Frenchy. It was a great time and he worked hard to continually put us on fish. Cpt Frenchy is a pleasure to spend time with and I would highly recommend him for anyone looking to catch fish and have a great time on the water.

Best charter experience! The captain was very easy to communicate with prior to the day and was obviously looking to provide a great experience. It was easy to see he was also excited when we caught a record breaking red drum and alligator gar plus a numerous variety of other fish. We will definitely be back!

When I tell you a time was had!!! We had a group of 6 so we teamed up with Capt Shawn and Capt. Chad. The laughs started within 10 minutes of arriving to the dock! Both captains were very experienced, knowledgeable, hospitable and definitely made sure they put us in the best spots to catch fish!! We hooked multiple bull reds, speckle trout, sheepsheads and drum!! Definitely will be booking again very soon! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently went duck hunting with Captain Jacob and had an excellent experience. He was professional, courteous, and easy to work with. When the weather forced us to reschedule at the last minute, he handled it without any issues, which made the whole process stress-free. The duck blind was clean and comfortable, and there were plenty of ducks flying overhead throughout the hunt. At the end of the day, Captain Jacob even cleaned and butchered the birds for us, which was a nice touch. Overall, I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a well-run guided hunt. I’m already planning to book with him again.
