Fishing down in Shell Beach, Louisiana has been pretty good considering the unstable weather we’ve had. When it got cold for a few weeks the fish started moving close and stacking up, making it easy once you found the fish. Once it warmed up, they spread back out, and we had to go into our early fall patterns to find fish with any consistency. We still have live bait at the docks, so we still use it but it’s not necessarily needed. Throwing DOA shrimp under a cork or on the bottom has been great for us. Fish are scattered out some but once the temps drop back down this week, they will gather back up for an exciting and action-packed trip you won’t soon forget.

As we approach the end of the year that's certainly not the end of fishing. Here in Biloxi Mississippi we fish all year long. Winter fishing can provide some good fish. The redfish, black drum, speckled trout, flounder and more are still around. As we move into January and February...

As we approach the end of the year that's certainly not the end of fishing. Here in Biloxi Mississippi we fish all year long. Winter fishing can provide some good fish. The redfish, black drum, speckled trout, flounder and more are still around. As we move into January and February and the water cools off even more we should start seeing large Sheepshead around the bay and around the offshore Barrier Islands. Plan your fishing trip today.

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.

A recent Bull red trip with a crew out of Florida. Beginning (roughly) the third week in July through Labor and starting up again in October, the bull red fish show up in Venice, LA. We have been expanding our offerings here and making Bull only trips available to our clients during peak times. These trips are truly special and very different from our standard charters. Enjoy the pictures and reach out if you are interested in getting on the books for next year. The calendar is filling quickly!

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.
