New Orleans Sportsman’s Paradise Trip

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.

If you’re planning on fishing in Southeast Louisiana and are looking for a top-notch fishing charter, come fish with the best! Whether you’re just visiting the New Orleans area and looking for an enjoyable family outing, or a dedicated angler hoping to bag a trophy, Captain Mike has got you covered.

On the day of your trip, you will be fishing out of Captain Mike’s fish out of a 26′ Caymas hybrid bay boat powered by a 300 Mercury. This shallow-draft fishing vessel is ideal for inshore angling, and you’ll be able to maneuver around the marshes, channels, and flats with ease.

Throughout spring, summer, and fall Captain Mike likes to target Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Tripletail, Sheepshead, and Flounder. During certain seasonal months, he also goes after Snapper and Cobia! Starting in early spring he switches his focus to the southern edge of Delacroix, north hitting deeper marshes and channels and targeting Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, and Sheepshead.

As the waters warm up, he will move further out, chasing the bait from Delacroix to Hopedale to Shell Beach. This allows him and his clients to get on some great Speckled Trout and Redfish bites! As water temperatures rise in the springtime, the action takes him to cleaner waters in search of large schools of Speckled Trout, plus tons of Flounder. Once water temperatures reach a certain level, he likes to go further out to the outer marshes and surrounding areas. This is where he goes to target Bull Reds, Speckled Trout and Tripletail!

When you book a trip, you can be confident that Captain Mike will do the utmost to put you on some of the best fishing of your life! Southeast Louisiana isn’t called the “Sportman’s Paradise” for nothing, and the fishing here is truly legendary. Get out there and have the time of your life with Captain Mike!

Loved it and could have spent hours taking pictures. It starts with their bus picking us up and driving us to the tour, an offered treat of a bite of Kings Cake on arrival, followed by a short movie. You then get to follow a path through their warehouse of floats and props as well as get to look into the working areas. SO Much to see! We were able to spend time talking with one of the artists and she was great. We learned a lot and had a great time. And yes, after we were dine, the bus took us back.
