Partake in the adventure of a lifetime and book your next fishing trip with Wicked Fishing Charters! Captain Mackie Bellott will take you on an unforgettable journey through the untouched waters of Louisiana's backcountry where you will be targeting some impressive species that hide below the surface. But beware, for it is said the legendary Kraken lurks beneath these waters!

Your boat for the day will be a 22' Triton bay boat, powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine. It comes equipped with a fishfinder, GPS, wireless trolling motor, and necessary safety gear. The captain can take up to 5 guests at a time, including kids ages 7 and up. Something fun that he likes to do when taking kids on board is making them his first mate for the day. They absolutely enjoy this and end up falling in love with fishing after the trip!

Capt. Mack offers a number of different fishing experiences based on whatever your preferences are. You'll mainly be fishing in the Mandeville, Slidell, and Lake Catherine areas where you'll be using light tackle to troll, spin, or bottom fish for species like Redfish, Speckled Trout, Sheepshead, and many more. Top-quality Duckett and Penn rods and reels are provided for you on each trip, as well as lures.

Over the past few years, these charters have become so popular that National Geographic has decided to feature the famous 'Kraken Hunt' in a documentary that aired in April 2019. These expeditions are offered from their other listing location, across Lake Pontchartrain where there are lots of Alligator Gar and Bull Shark.

Capt. Mack is one of the humblest people you will meet. His aim is always to provide customers with the best and most affordable fishing experience while teaching people about sustainable fishing practices. Purchase a fishing license, pack some sunscreen and your favorite pair of sunglasses, and book your next fishing trip with Wicked Fishing Charters!

NOTE: You may purchase live bait for the trip at an additional cost approx $25 pp

Great Experience
The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on April 4, 20262 adults

We ended up with windy conditions, but Capt Mackie was willing to keep pushing so my son had an opportunity to fish. We caught somebig and some small fish, but action was consistent and the time flew by. Capt Mackie was very good with my 23 year old. He answered questions, helped when needed, and also taught him how to remove hooks from fish. Would recommend and would do the trip again!

Thanks for coming!

Great fishing experience!
The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on October 13, 20253 adults

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing time on our charter with Wicked Fishing! I brought my 11- and 8-year-old sons, and Mackie was fantastic — not only helping all of us fish but also letting the boys get hands-on with tying up the boat and cleaning the catch. We ended the day with a great haul of fish to take home, and the boys couldn’t have been prouder. Such a fun, family-friendly adventure — highly recommend!

Great Day
The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on October 11, 20252 adults

My father and I had a wonderful time with Captain. He did a great job of helping us get the proper technique down and stayed busy baiting our hooks with all the nibbles. Captain was patient and steady with my father. The sheepheads were a great battle! We had a wonderful afternoon and left tuckered out from all the fun with a lot of good fish to take home and eat.

A great time
The Aquarium Catch (Afternoon) on October 4, 20253 adults

Captain Mackie really helped show us the ropes. I went with a group of people who had never really fished before and he made sure we had a good time. Mackie made sure we stayed ahead of the weather and we were so happy to catch so many fish. Beginner's luck or just someone who knows the water as a captain, its hard to say. We had a great experience we will never forget.
