Speckled trout are starting to run the beaches and near-shore reefs and we have been stacking them up when the wind allows. Flounder are migrating into the bay in better numbers. Redfish are still roaming the shallows. Bait shops are starting to have live shrimp more often, allowing more consistent catches. We are entering one of the best fishing times of the year on MS Gulf Coast!! We just need people wanting to fish!!

Fishing in Lake Ponchartrain is really getting fired up. Lots of nice trout being caught with a few Reds and Black Drum.

    We had a great time out with these guys. Hit a 2 man limit on drum on top of redfish and other species. Got to see a ton of wildlife. Very accommodating and knowledgeable about the area. Would highly recommend.

    What a great day. Me and my 2 sons fished with Captain Jacob and had an amazing day. Had 3 limits of red by 7:00 a.m. and continued to catch reds non stop for about another almost 2 hours. Even managed to pick up a handful of specks on the way in. Will definitely book another trip with him.
