    Fantastic Day!

    The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on July 2, 2026 • 6 adults

    We had a great afternoon! There were six in our group - 3 teens who can’t stop talking about how much fun they had and how soon we can go again. The “bites” were almost nonstop with several nice sail catfish but the most excitement was catching large sharks and a big black drum!! Captain Mac was really great - prepared, knowledgeable of the area and was just as excited as we were with our catch. We highly recommended him!

    Captain Mackie is nice and helpful. He makes sure that everyone on the boat is cared for. The weather wasn’t the best for catching fish, but the Captain was stil able to put us on fish and make our trip very memorable. I very highly recommend this trip for others.

    Had an incredible outing with Captain Mackie! He was incredibly patient, easy-going, and went out of his way to teach us the ropes. Best of all, we caught every species advertised! It was a productive, fun, and educational day. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable guide who is great with kids and beginners, I can’t recommend this charter enough. We’ll definitely be back!

    Great First Fishing Trip

    The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on March 21, 2026 • 3 adults

    This was my first fishing trip since moving to Louisiana and I was able to meet up some of my close friends from back at home. The Captain was amazing, made the trip fun, looked for fishing spots to make sure we didn’t go home empty handed and was very professional. I regret not taking the longer trip now! Oh and his choice of music was spot on!

    Highly recommended experience!

    The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on November 28, 2025 • 6 adults • 2 children

    Mackie, our captain, truly made our trip an amazing adventure. We had some friends over for thanksgiving weekend and wanted to do a fun acivity in New Orleans. We booked one of the inshore trips (the aquarium catch), for an afternoon trip. The experience was really fun, and in the end Captain Mackie filleted the fish for us and we took ALOT of fillets home to cook.

    Originally scheduled for 17 MAR. Weather wasn’t cooperating. Finally out in the afternoon of the 19th. Immediately caught fish off the tressels. Five of us harvested 19 fish and threw many back. Great trip.

I have been fishing Lake Ponchatrain and it's surrounding Bayous since I first could hold a rod. My passion became my career when I went to work for Captain Andy Jones over the summer of 19'. Captain Andy taught me everything there is to know about hunting the Kraken and I continue to heed his advice while on the water. While waiting for the Kraken to awaken from hibernation, we have become expert Redfish and Trout fisherman, finding the best spots across Lake Ponchatrain, Catherine, and Borgne to load a box full of fish for our customers.
