About Your Trip

Explore the productive inshore waters of the Gulf, just out of Lafitte as you aim to fill the boat and hit your daily limit. These shallow waters are home to a range of tough-fighting and tasty fish, so get your fish on as you use light tackle and jig, spin, and even use some popping corks to lure their bite. Fight it out with Sheepshead, Redfish, Trout, and many more to take home

We do offer lodging and meals at an additional cost:
Lodging $50/head/day
Meals: $75/head/day

We also offer mulitboat trips for larger parties with advanced notice. Deposit details subject to change

About Your Guide

Ryan V.

Outfitter

Hi my name is Capt Ryan and I've been guiding the waters of the barataria basin since 2012 my wife's uncle who had been guiding for 30 years gave me my start. I worked for him starting in 2010 as a deckhand learning the ends and out of the fishing charter industry. My style of fishing would best be described as run and gun. I move a lot and im not scared to burn some gas to put my clients on fish. Some days we will run upwards of 50 miles looking for fish if that's what it takes. My clients happiness Is priority number 1. You can expect first class hospitality and an extremely enjoyable time. By the time the trip is over you will feel like family.

If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
