Fishing has been great for redfish. We are catching limits to near limits every day. When the weather cooperates were able to run offshore and catch Cobia. Fall is here and it's a great time to go fishing.

Trout fishing on Sabine Lake has been good lately. The weather is finally starting to break. We are catching lots of trout on the Louisiana shoreline. The best baits have Corky's on an incoming tide. We are catching some bull reds mixed in with the trout. Also, I looked for...

Fishing is hot right now and I'm not just talking about the temperature. The trout bite has been on fire.

Great time! Captain Tom made my seven year old’s bday a memorable one! Knew all the best spots in Lake Charles. I highly recommend!

Tommy is the man! We fished the tail end of a storm today in not ideal conditions and he put me on em! We stacked up a limit of drum, tons of sheepshead, and two big bull reds in a half day trip (on what he described as an “off day” for Calcasieu. I can only imagine what an “on day” looks like…)

What the best fishing experience ever! Dale was great! We laughed and made jokes as if we had know each other for years. He even let us stay a little longer since it was after the storm and it changes the fishing a bit. It was my dad's first time on a charter, and he loved it! Highly recommend!

Captain Dale was knowledgeable, educational, patient, and considerate. Despite it being July and Hurricane Beryl a couple of days out he was able to find some great fishing spots! Safety was also a top concern. Recommend him 10 out of 10!!!

My wife and I had the honor of spending the day fishing with Captain Chris. This was by far the best fishing charter that we have been in. Chris’ experience level showed as he constantly put us on fish all day. We were is busy catching fish we did not even eat lunch! We came very close to limiting out on several species of fish. Chris even showed us tips in cleaning the fish and preparing them. If you are looking for a guide in this area, you will be greatly pleased with Captain Chris!

Good guide, knows where the fish are, would have like to see tactical changes made for different species or when the bit slowed down. I’d like to see a variety in the arsenal you know. That’s just me being my hardcore fishing self. My wife loved it because we didn’t have to clean or fuel our boat. I agree it’s nice just being a paying customer. The hard thing for me and being very expirienced is you expect everyone to be like you. Tommy did us right and I appreciate his hard work. I’d use Tommy again and would recommend Tommy to others
