About Your Trip

Experience some of the best inshore fishing Louisiana has to offer with a fully guided trip through the legendary Delacroix marshes, bays, reefs, and coastal waters. The fishing location is conveniently located just a 45-minute drive from New Orleans, making this the perfect fishing adventure for both locals and visitors looking to escape the city and experience authentic South Louisiana fishing.

Trips typically begin early in the morning to take advantage of the best fishing conditions for speckled trout, redfish, black drum, sheepshead, and seasonal Louisiana inshore species. Depending on weather, tides, and current fishing patterns, your captain may fish marsh ponds, oyster reefs, Breton Sound, Lake Borgne, or nearby coastal waters to put you on the most productive bite possible. Both live bait and artificial lures may be used throughout the trip, with techniques including drift fishing, sight casting, jigging, and topwater fishing.

Your trip includes quality rods, reels, tackle, bait, ice, safety equipment, and fish cleaning at the end of the day. The boat is equipped with modern electronics, GPS, fish finder technology, a livewell, trolling motor, and a spacious casting platform designed specifically for Louisiana inshore fishing. These trips are great for anglers of all skill levels, from first-time fishermen to experienced anglers chasing trophy trout and bull reds.

Whether you are looking for fast-paced speckled trout action, family-friendly fishing memories, or an authentic Louisiana marsh fishing experience close to New Orleans, this trip delivers a fun, professional, and unforgettable day on the water. Guests are encouraged to bring snacks, drinks, sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, and weather-appropriate clothing for a comfortable trip.
