We had a fantastic time with Captain Kody. The four of us went with two newbie fishermen and we caught a ton of redfish, black drum, and even some alligator gar. Our ice chest is full of fish for grilling, Kody was very patient and great to us and we visited some great spots. They will treat you right!
great captain and a good time was had. caught a little bit of everything
We really wanted to fish during our New Orleans trip, but we didn't rent a car. For a reasonable price they picked us up right from our hotel and brought us back. Communication was exceptional. They called and texted to make sure we knew the plan. Everyone was super friendly. Our captain Jason was amazing. We had different levels of fishing skills with us. He let us cast or bait our own hooks if we wanted. He did all the work for us who didn't want to do those things. He even would cast us into the sweet spots. He shared information about the fish, water, and the area. Most importantly he was very patient with us! We all had a great day!
We can only wish to have more families like y’all on board. Can’t wait until y’all come back!
Every one at the boat launch including the store was very friendly and helpful. I booked an early morning trip but the other captain was busy. So I excepted an evening trip. It was hard locating fish but Capt.Gavin would not give up. We eventually found a spot where the fish were biting. I had a fantastic time. Thanks Capt.Gavin!
Thank for comin Corey! Hope to see you soon!
Great trip!
