Louisiana Marsh, Flats, & Inshore Fishing Charters

Louisiana is the redfish capital of the world!

Venice and Hopedale Fishing

Venice LA is the sport fishing capitol of the world for both inshore and offshore fishing. Well known for its world class speckled trout and redfish fishery, it not only has large numbers of both, but it also boasts many trophy sized speckled trout and bull redfish.

You can sight fish for slot sized redfish and monster jackfish in the shallow marsh ponds or go out to the oyster reefs and catch world class speckled trout and redfish on top-waters. All fishing is done from the boat either drift fishing or sight fishing in marsh ponds, over oyster reefs, or on the beach front.

The best months are from March until December for numbers of trout and redfish. The biggest factor in fishing these two areas will be the influx of freshwater from the Mississippi River. The less freshwater means the bite is on fire!!!! Hopedale and Breton Sound Area is a great place to catch large numbers of speckled trout and sight fish for redfish in the marsh or duck ponds. The marsh ponds for sight fishing redfish turn on in May until September. This area consists of large open bays with large oyster reefs throughout all of the bays and lakes. This is a great place for light tackle sight fishing or fly fishing.

Catch & Release

Yes the limits are more liberal in Louisiana, but we do not allow our guides to keep their limits of fish. to give to you or your group. Our guides don't fish and will not contribute to the box. Please understand, if you plan on taking fish home you're only allowed a 2 day possession limit. We emphasize catch all you want and keep only what you need to eat. Catch and release is the standard policy on fly fishing, no exceptions!!! We don't keep oversized redfish. We are looking out for the future of the great fishery and making sure that our children and our grandchildren can tell stories of catching a hundred speckled trout a day and fifty redfish a day.
