Discover the intricate network of inshore water southern Louisiana has to offer with Reel Cajun Fishing. Go after a range of exciting and delicious fish as you embark on an authentic 'cajun' adventure. Captain Ryan Vincent is a 5th-generation Lafitte native. Born on the water, he's spent his whole life with a rod in one hand. A passionate angler to this day, he can't wait to show you his local hunting grounds.

Up to 5 guests are welcome aboard the 25' Bluewave bay boat. Light and agile, she's able to navigate these shallow waters with ease. You'll speed across the bays at lightning speed thanks to the 250 HP Mercury engine, while the wireless trolling motor will keep you afloat in the marshes. Creep up on your target fish without making a peep, getting ready to pounce.

Grab the latest Penn gear and get fishing. As you drift along the water, you'll use light tackle and even popping corks to entice the bite of some highly-prized fish. You'll be given a range of artificial lures to choose from, but let Capt. Ryan know beforehand if you'd like some live bait to attract your prey.

The Southern favorite, Redfish, is a must to target as she promises to put up an almighty fight to get off the end of the line, making the delicious dish at the end of the day even sweeter. The fun only just begins there, though. Go after delicious Sheepshead, Trout, Flounder, and many more. at the end of the day, your captain will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home!

This is a personalized tour like no other.

Just pick up your license in the marina and come aboard for the trip of a lifetime with Reel Cajun Fishing!

Great trip!
Morning Fishing Trip 6hr on July 3, 20261 adult1 child

10/10 experience! My 11-year-old son and I had an amazing time. We caught our limit of speckled trout, and it was my son’s very first fishing trip. He had an absolute blast and hasn’t stopped talking about it. The captain was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and great with my son. He made the trip fun while making sure we were set up for a successful day on the water. We couldn’t have asked for a better first fishing experience. Highly recommend, we’ll definitely be back!

Awesome trip!
Evening fishing trip on July 17, 20262 adults

Ryan brought us out on a short run and put us on a hot spot of Black drum immediately. 2 limits in under an hour! Then we went looking for Reds and found them also. Had some realy nice ones ,kept 4. He let me fish a few different techniques and gave me some pointers to hone my skills. The boat was very well equipped with really nice tackle and bait. I would recommend fishing with Ryan to any anyone. Thanks Ryan. Excellent trip.

amazing fishing trip and brilliant captains
Full day fishing trip 12 hr on April 17, 20261 adult

Fished in the morning with Captain Christian targetting speckled trout and in the afternoon with Captain Ryan for redfish. Both wonderful and friendly captains and it was enjoyable spending the time with them. The fishing was enjoyable, apparently the bite was (relatively) slow, but I was very happy and impressed with the fish I was able to catch. The full day trip was great as I was able to target numerous species, catching most fish from trout to red fish but also some sheepshead and black drum at the end to just add to my species list. Would highly recommend to any fisherman looking for a easy trip from New Orleans or around.

Reel Cajun is the way to go!
Mid-day Fishing Trip 6hr on February 7, 20262 adults

Captain Ryan Vincent is very knowledgeable about the waters. I was there during the beginning of February after the cold snap where many fish died off. I wanted to bring my fly rod to try out and he was okay with it. It was a bit slow at first but after hopping to a spot or two he got us on some fish! The main thing i wanted to chase was a bull redfish. He was straightforward and told me that the conditions weren't the best for Bulls during this time of year. I appreciated the honesty because anyone can say I know a spot then you end up disappointed. In this case toward the end of our trip I got hooked on a 27 1/2 inch bull red and caught the fish i was hunting! Captain Ryan was cool, patient, and answered all my questions. I would 100% recommend. Check out my YouTube channel Rockeronthefly for new videos of the catches!

Virtues of a Great Captain
Evening fishing trip on May 20, 20261 adult1 child

Captain Ryan is truly a saint. He has patience and is an all around good guy. Today my five year old son went on his first fishing trip and was able to reel in a 24 inch redfish, 3 other red fish, a couple drum and a speckle trout. He also was able to “drive” the boat while Captain Ryan had us trolling, “swim” after his 100th request and drop an item overboard and fish it out. All this while Captain Ryan remained composed and caring towards him. I would recommend him to anyone looking to fish out of Lafitte.
