About Your Trip

Got it—here’s the updated version reflecting both fly and light tackle:

Join Captain Miles for a fly fishing and light tackle charter adventure through the legendary marshes of Southeastern Louisiana, operating in and around the New Orleans area. Known as Sportsman’s Paradise, this year-round fishery is filled with winding bayous, shallow marsh flats, and endless opportunities for sight-fishing in some of the most productive inshore waters in the Gulf.

This trip is designed for anglers who want a hands-on, visual fishing experience, with a primary focus on sight-casting to redfish. These fish cruise the skinny water, push wakes along the grass edges, and tail in the shallows, creating exciting shots where precision and timing make all the difference. Whether you’re presenting a fly or working a light tackle setup, every encounter is earned and unforgettable.

Captain Miles is experienced in both fly fishing and conventional light tackle approaches, helping anglers of all skill levels dial in their casting, presentation, and fish-reading abilities. From first-timers to seasoned sight-fishers, the guidance is tailored to help you get the most out of every opportunity.

The marsh environment is constantly changing with the tides, weather, and bait movement, keeping each trip dynamic and unpredictable in the best way. While redfish are the primary focus, the rich ecosystem ensures a variety of encounters that keep the action engaging throughout the day.

Join Captain Miles for a Louisiana marsh fishing adventure where fly fishing, light tackle sight-casting, and the wild beauty of New Orleans’ backcountry come together for an unforgettable day on the water.

About Your Guide

Outfitter

Our friendly guides are true professionals when is comes to saltwater charters. Join us on your next Louisiana fishing charter.

Louisiana offers shallow water fisherman an opportunity not too many other places in the world can boast about. We have a plethora of different saltwater species with a good old Cajun appetite. Our redfish are well protected in some of the deepest corners of the marsh allowing them to roam in peace as they hunt for their next meal. This seclusion is an advantage for Louisiana fishermen because these fish are more than happy to destroy anything that moves in front of them.

Being a Louisiana fishing guide takes experience, skill, and most of all passion. Our fishing guides are passionate allowing us to provide you with the best experience possible. We live and fish here in Louisiana year round allowing us to know the subtle changes in our fishery. We fish these waters for our own pleasure, so our passion extends past putting our clients on fish as we are concerned about the well being of our coast’s future.
