About Your Trip

Climb aboard with Captain Gavin for a half day adventure on the inshore flats of Lafitte, LA. Captain Gavin’s 32’ Aluma Marine can fit up to 10 guests, giving you the opportunity for a fishing frenzy! The Barataria-Terrebonne estuarine complex is the largest and most dynamic fishing grounds in the world. Among the maze of marshes, you will be targeting Black Drum, Flounder, Redfish, and Spotted Seatrout, which all make for a delicious dinner!

Captain Gavin will clean any fish you catch, so you can take home an incredible meal. If you choose, Captain Gavin is happy to clean and cook your catch for you, at an additional fee per person. He also provides rods, reels, bait, and tackle for you and all your guests, so you only need to bring sun protection, food, and drinks.

The vessel is a 36’ Aluma Marine equipped with twin 600hp Yamaha engines, which power the huge boat through the flats. The cabin has air conditioning to give you a break from the Louisiana heat, and the spacious deck accommodates up to 10 people.

Captain Gavin is an experienced guide who can take you to the best fishing holes in grassy flats. Once there, you will cast using light tackle and hopefully reel in a monster!
