About Your Trip

To the avid Anglers,
I always check not only the weather, winds and tides ( or currents) but the atmospheric pressure, therefore will decide which precise locations to fish
(and catch).
We would launch between the hours of 6am and 7 am depending on the season and of course YOUR wish.
I always provide plenty of live bait and of course will have an extensive collection of artificial lures
The 3 predominantly used techniques would be
-under a popping cork
-bottom rig
-top water artificial bait
There will always be chilled water and soft drinks bottles availability
There will be a very nice lunch and snacks provided for the “full day” trips

Providing an excellent fishing experience will come with a VERY ENJOYABLE time. I take so much pleasure in what I do!
I have fished LOUISIANA Waters for 36 years and can say that They are a blessing not comparable to any others (have fished 3 continents and a multitude of countries)
Very cordially
🎣

About Your Guide

Hubert S.

Independent Guide

I was born in France and moved to Louisiana 36 plus years ago. I owned a renowned restaurant in New Orleans and had tv shows ( including with Martha Stewart). When I left the restaurant business I became a Commercial Aviation pilot flying for a private Family. I have fished my whole life all over the world (5 continents) and avidly fished Louisiana for 36 years. I have a passion for fly fishing. I mainly operate out of Bayou Bienvenue. Because of my passion for fly fishing I can spot and see fish when other can’t and earned the nickname of the “fish whisperer “ in Louisiana.
I love flying big planes as well as Paragliders.
What clients can expect with my charter guide service is A GREAT TIME 🎣

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is the home of over 1500 Damn Good fishing and hunting guides. Our mission is to unlock the outdoors for everyone, and we want to help you get out there through our no-hassle online booking experience and our team of outdoors experts.

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
