    Great Experience For Our Group

    Half Day Trip (AM) on September 1, 2024 • 4 adults

    Our group of 4 (3 of which were very novice fishers) had a great time with Cpt. Chapman. Jacob worked hard to put us on fish all morning. Started a little slow, but once we found them, we FOUND them—and some BIG ones at that. I caught my PB redfish, and my friend caught two PBs himself. Our wives had the best time, which is THE most important part of the equation! Would absolutely fish with Jacob again and appreciate the time we had.

    A hot day fishing is better than a cool day at the office

    Half Day Trip (AM) on July 1, 2024 • 2 adults • 1 child

    Captain Jacob put my son and me on a lot of fish today! Redfish, drum, gar, catfish, stingray, and crab🤣. Although it was extremely hot we had a great time, constantly catching something. He did great with my 11 year old as well. Highly recommend!!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on May 12, 2024 • 3 adults

    Capt Jacob was professional. On time, on point and on fish. Windy day but he got us on fish. By far one of the best trips I’ve been on. Top notch. If you go to La, he is your guy to put you on fish!

    Half day trip with Capt Jacob

    Half Day Trip (AM) on December 29, 2022 • 3 adults

    Capt Jacob was awesome. He had us on fish and with our limit before we knew it. Super helpful with baiting the hook and netting and removing fish. All we had to do was cast and catch. He even helped one of our group with tips to cast more accurately. I'm planning another charter in a couple months and will be coming back to Bayou Bandits.

    Half Day Trip with Captain Jacob

    Half Day Trip (AM) on October 3, 2020 • 4 adults

    We had a tough start to our day, but thanks to Captain Jacob's perseverance, we ended up with a great catch of 15 redfish and a drum, not to mention about 40 catfish. The morning started slow, but the Captain would motor miles to one spot, fish a couple of stops in that area, then motor to another spot at least a mile away. We fished each stop for 5-10 minutes, and if no fish, we moved. I believe on our fifth stop we really got into the reds, and at each stop in that area, we caught fish. If the Captain hadn't worked so hard to find fish, it would have been a poor day. But because he kept moving till we found fish, it turned out to be a great day. The Captain was a man of few words, but he was happy to answer any questions we had, and we had plenty. He was focused on catching fish, and when we started catching, he talked a lot more. He's a very dedicated fisherman, who knows the area well and will put you on fish.

    Half Day Fishing

    Half Day Trip (PM) on December 12, 2019 • 1 adult

    I didn’t know what to expect, but it was amazing. I almost cancelled because it was cold, windy and misting rain. Capt Jacob was friendly and made me feel comfortable. I haven’t fished in years, but he was so very patient with me and made my experience perfect. I was ill prepared and he loaned me a pair of over pants to help me stay warm. Perfect ending to an amazing trip to New Orleans. Thank You!!!! Thank You!!!! Thank You!!!!

Captain Jacob did a great job finding fish and making an adventure out of the day for 2 young girls (10 and 11) who had the time of their lives. We will definitely contact him again in the future for another adventure!

I grew up on the water and I'm very passionate about fishing and guiding. My grandad was also an angler and he was the one who got me into fishing in the first place. He used to take me on fishing trips, just the two of us, and teach me about fishing. With over 30 years of experience, I also love teaching my guest everything I know about angling.
