Dust off your 10wt - the big girls are in the marsh, the water has dropped out, and the forage is plentiful. Shots on big fish with explosive shallow water eats are a daily occurrence this time of year. The schools of bull reds have broken up and they’ve become more solitary as they prowl the shallow interior marshes hoovering up shrimp, crabs, and every living creature unfortunate enough to cross their path. The water has dropped out for winter, concentrating the fish and making them easy to spot. The wind can be a little unpredictable, but in between fronts, the fishing doesn’t get any better than this.

As the days get cooler, the fishing gets hotter down here in South Louisiana. The bull reds and jacks are schooling by the tens and even hundreds some days. I’ve been heading out to the edge of the Gulf to intercept these packs of maniacs. Doubling and tripling up on 30lb redfish on fly is a common occurrence and will continue till about thanksgiving. Nothing gets your blood pumping like rolling up to a school of huge bulls boiling the water and breaching like dolphins as they decimate a pod of migrating shrimp - Cast a fly in there and hold onto your butt, you’re going for a ride.

During the summer there are two options: If you want big boys, you head to the fringes of the Gulf of Mexico and look for massive bull reds, if you want numbers, you stay inside and fish the gin clear water in grassy duck ponds for slot reds. Personally, the slot reds are my favorite. They are plentiful, pop out clear as day when they come floating up, and have a beautiful copper coloration. They are aggressive, forgiving, and put up a hell of a fight in this ultra shallow environment. Today we stayed inside. I set my clients up with a gold spoon, a marsh staple, and they pulled red after red out of the thick vegetation and even managed a couple black drum. A great day out in the marsh!

The fishing has been pretty good considering the late cold fronts that have passed by. Speckled Trout are showing up in good numbers and the Redfish have been incredible. We have been getting consistent live bait which means it’s trout season. We are here for it!

    Shrimping with Captain Daryl was an excellent experience. Daryl went out of his way to make sure we had an enjoyable experience. He provided us with everything we needed to catch the shrimp. This was a GREAT EXPERIENCE, Captain Daryl is top notch and I highly recommend using him for your future trips.

    Outstanding tour! I learned quite a bit from Daryl. From beginning to end, I got some "hands-on" experience on what it's like to catch shrimp. I will not ever forget it. This tour is a definite must for everyone that wants to learn about the art of shrimping. This event gave me more appreciation of the hard work the men and women do daily in shrimping!

    Daryl was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and personable. He explained everything in detail and we came home with two big ice chests full of shrimp that he had iced down for us! This was such a pleasurable trip and we hope to go fishing with Daryl again in the near future. Cindy and Don from Shreveport, LA.

    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.

    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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
