About Your Trip

Come on down and experience the best of both worlds on this combination bowfishing and angling trip! Why choose one when you can do both?

You'll start off the afternoon on board a 26' Caymas center console bay boat chasing Speckled Trout, Redfish, Sheepshead, and Black Drum. You'll leave the dock about 3 hours before sunset for your rod & reel fishing charter and enjoy the sunset while catching Louisiana's most popular fish. At sunset, you'll meet Captain Chris on the bayou, where you will hop on board a custom 20' airboat to continue your night of bowfishing for the next 3 hours. You trip will last approximately 6 hours.

This combo rod & reel and bowfishing charter is perfect for customers who want to experience it all but do not want to stay out late into the night. Its the perfect opportunity to enjoy both styles of fishing in one trip!

Fuel, bait, ice, rods, reels, bows, arrows, tackle, and fishing cleaning services are included. More time may be added to the beginning of your trip or the end of your trip. If you would like to do 4 or 5 hours of rod and reel fishing prior to the bowfishing charter, or if you would like to add an extra hour or two to the bowfishing charter, you may do so by requesting additional time prior to your trip. Additional time may be added at $200 per hour for the entire group!

About Your Guide

Mike D.

Independent Guide 26 years of exp.

The Southeast Louisiana and New Orleans area has the best fishing in the world, and Captain Mike aims to take advantage of every ounce of it. To this end, Captain Mike is out on the water everyday of the year because this is not just a job for him, it's his passion and way of life!

Captain Mike was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was fortunate to grow up fishing the inshore and off
shore waters of Louisiana. He has fished both salt and freshwater his entire life all over the country and in his eyes, one thing is for certain: nothing beats the beautiful pristine waters and marshes of the Sportsman's Paradise!

He spends his winters guiding waterfowl hunters in the duck capital of the world in Arkansas and his spring, summer and fall chasing Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Snapper, Black Drum or anything that will bite in Louisiana.
?
Captain Mike runs= a family-friendly operation and is committed to making sure you, your friends, family and or clients have a safe, enjoyable and successful fishing experience. As a father of 3 beautiful girls, he feels it's important to gets more kids and women involved in our favorite outdoor sports like fishing and hunting.

So so much fun!!! He found all the good places my bestie got sea sick and our guide was the sweetest caring person he really helped her get past it and offered several times to take us back if needed! He even has a little potty for ladies on the boat so you don’t have to hang off the side!! We hit all of our red snapper limits before 10 and then got some trout...
